Here are some quotes from Gary Ross, Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson about The Hunger Games published on Vanity Fair:

“My kids turned me on to it, and I went nuts. You rarely get a tentpole that has this much emotional depth, this much character to dive into.” – Gary Ross

“Katniss is an incredible character: she’s a hunter but not a killer, a 16-year-old who’s being forced into the arena. These kids are killing one another only because if they don’t they’ll die. It’s heartbreaking.” – Jennifer Lawrence

“I literally read all three books over the course of five days. My mind was blown by how much I felt I was like Peeta. We shot in the forest near Asheville, North Carolina—a lot of fight scenes, very physically demanding. Jennifer and I totally hit it off. We’re both crazy people—we don’t hold anything back.”- Josh Hutcherson

“My responsibility was to Suzanne and the readers, to give them the same experience they had when they read the book. I was just so lucky that I had the cast I had.” – Gary Ross
