Did You Know In THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE…

The water scenes were filmed in a water park in Atlanta, and the water was just barely 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Lynn Cohen was exempt from filming her scenes in it as the director was concerned for her health and safety. During the scene where she’s carried on Sam’s back, he lost his footing, banged his knee on the rock, and they both fell into the water. He felt terrible for the accident, but Lynn thought it was hilarious. Also, during the scene where Katniss, Peeta, and Finnick eat raw fish, they’re really eating raw fish. Jennifer and Sam aren’t fond of fish, but Jennifer had the hardest time eating it.

I love that the implication is Josh Hutcherson is super cool with raw fish

[antithoughtpolice]

Basically the casting of Mags was beyond perfect

[Baileyhaney]

I think that's really cute that Sam was horrified and Lynn was just really amused

[Macey]

I was like; “what! They’re actually making them eat raw fish?” And then I realized I was eating sushi

Sam slips, slams his knee on a rock and falls into the water, but he’s still concerned with apologizing to the little old lady he’s working with 😭

[greenghoul]

The woman that played Mags was such a sweet person

[CloroxBleach-nuvo]

Growing up in Atlanta when these films were in production was so exciting 😆

"Jennifer and Sam weren't a fond of fish-"
Ah yes, Josh totally loves raw fish

[blackleague]

I will say, that her falling in the water for 5 seconds is nothing compared to her being on contract, and doing hours of water scene takes.
Director respected the older women, my favorite character from the 2nd movie…
I think she volunteered for Finnick cause she knew he would win, and she wanted him to go be with Annie his wife. Touched my heart when granny volunteered for him. I’m more choked up now while im rewatching the show.

[billieticklish]

Jennifer turned Hunger Games into "I'm full, Thanks"

[EMYTHETIMMY]

The water park is really cool I have been their and I also have been to the place where they had filmed some of the scenes. Its really cool!

[MikaelaKMajorHistory]

I mean, some people just don’t like sashimi and that’s okay 😅

[xoxoyuaa]

another fun fact! the place where they stay before the quell starts, is actually the marriott hotel! it’s a beautiful building and i’ve stayed there multiple times for concerts :)

[zachmoyer]

J Law is so brave for gnawing on that raw fish for our enjoyment true dedication.

[allison]

I still remember watching this movie in theaters and everybody being devastated when Mags disappeared in the fog.

[hfebeml]

I would also be totally fine with Finnick dropping me anywhere haha

[harleyrobb]

Lynn ❤️ she will be missed. Wonderful actress.

[BabyFrostGiant]

😢😢 Jennifer, Idk know that we share one thing in common but you are so brave

[leeks]

Man I’d rather have raw fish than cooked fish unless it’s battered and fried. I blame my upbringing cuz growing up in Hawai’i I was raised on raw fish and will eat it for days 😋
