Oscar
winning
actress
Jennifer
Lawrence
has
credited
Liam
Hemsworth,
her
co-star
in
the
film
"The
Hunger
Games:
Mockingjay
-
Part
1",
for
"toughening
her
up".
The
actors
became
friends
when
they
started
working
in
The
Hunger
Games
franchise
3
years
back.
The
24-year-old
said
in
an
interview
to
Nylon
magazine
that
she
was
surprised
to
find
a
lasting
friendship
with
Hemsworth,
and
has
formed
an
unexpected
and
strong
bond
with
him.
The
duo
were
last
seen
together
on-screen
in
the
fourth
part
of
"The
Hunger
Games" franchise.
Liam
played
her
love
interest
in
the
franchise
since
the
first
installment.
Asked
about
her
time
working
on
the
franchise,
the
Oscar
winner
said
Nylon,
"I
guess
the
thing
that
surprised
me
is
that
I
would
never
expect
to
ever
have
a
man
this
good
looking
ever
be
my
best
friend.
I
just
would
never
assume
those
things
could
happen,
but
he
is.
"He's
(Hemsworth)
the
most
wonderful,
lovable,
family-oriented,
sweet,
hilarious,
amazing
guy.
He
actually
taught
me
how
to
be
fair
and
to
stand
up
for
myself.
It's
my
biggest
weakness:
negotiating.
"I'm
a
wimp
about
standing
up
for
myself
and
Liam
is
always
fair.
He's
always
on
time,
he's
always
doing
his
job,
and
he's
good
about
making
sure
that
things
stay
fair.
"He's
teaching
me
to
toughen
up
a
little
bit.
That
was
important,
I
need
that,"
she
added.
"I
have
an
amazing
group
of
people
around
me.
I
surround
myself
with
'no' people,"
the
star
explains.
"They
will
tell
me,
'Stop
doing
that'
or
'You
look
terrible'-honest,
real
people."
"My
publicists
I've
had
since
I
was
16
years
old,
they
watched
me
grow
up
and
they
know
me
and
they
do
love
me;
my
agent,
I've
had
since
I
was
17,"
she
added.
Her
latest
release,
The
Hunger
Games
Mockingjay-
Part
1
is
set
to
hit
theaters
in
India
on
Friday,
Nov
28.
