Zitat des Tages von Liam Hemsworth:
I grew up in a good family with good parents, and I was able to dream big and have the support to live it out.
I love getting into physical shape for a film; it makes me feel more like what the character needs to be.
We shot in a place called Asheville, which is like beautiful, beautiful forests. And then part of it we shot all the reaping stuff, which was just crazy - because the reaping in the book and in the script is such an emotional thing for everyone. It really did feel like that when we were shooting it.
I go down to Newport and Huntington a lot. It's more crowded than where I grew up on Phillip Island, but I think it's helped me adjust to life in America - getting into the water as much as I can.
When I'm boxing, if my career isn't going well, at least I feel mentally and physically strong.
John Malkovich is such an interesting person and such a fun actor to work with.
Acting is a tough business to break into.
The people that live in these districts, they don't want to watch it. They don't want to see their children die or killing other people. The only people that it is entertainment to are the people in the capital that have been brainwashed and are misguided and living in a completely unrealistic kind of world.
I was a naughty kid.
If I was to get turned down by a girl, I'd just give up and say, 'Oh well.'
If I have one addiction in life, it's probably food.
Southern people remind me a lot of Australia.
If we get to shoot the third one, which I'm really hoping we do, the third one's great. There's a big uprising and rebellion, and my character Gale's a big part of that. If we get to shoot that, I'll be very, very pleased.
I love my brothers' kids. It's funny - as an uncle, you become so protective of them.
I don't generally hang out with crazy people.
I hate that there'll be moments in my day and I'll be patting down my legs trying to find my phone. I hate how anxious it makes me feel when I don't have it. When I go on holiday, or I go back to Australia, I put my phone in my bag and I don't worry about it; I think differently and I feel less stressed.
Gary Ross is amazing. He's just - he always has a billion ideas of what he wants, but has a very clear perspective also; he just makes it work. He really does. He's trying different things and making everything look amazing.
My character's kind of grown up with Katniss. The beginning of the story, they're more or less brother and sister than anything. They're best friends. They've been keeping each other alive. It's a little frustrating, for the character. As the character, not as me.
Most of my friends surfed, so we would go before school, after school - literally, whenever we could.
I learn more with every job, and I'm very thankful for where I am.
Gary Ross is amazing.
I had four films one year that were supposed to happen and didn't.
The fans that I have met so far have been nothing but supportive and extremely passionate about the books. I feel so honored to meet all these people. Something like this, which I think is bigger than anyone in the film, it's pretty crazy.
For a few years, I went down a path where I forgot to be in the moment and enjoy the moment.
I feel like the books were just written like a movie. You read it and you can just kind of see everything. Before I went in to read with the director, I read the first book and I loved it. I didn't realize how good the writing was. And then I went in and read with Gary Ross, and that was it.
I played a paraplegic on a show called 'Neighbours.' Just turned up on set, sat in a wheelchair. The producer came up to me one day and said, 'We have to cut around that entire scene because your leg was moving.'
Mel's Diner in L.A. - they are my favorite hamburgers. I could eat there every day. They are ridiculous.
We're showing a situation that these kids are caught in and being forced to do but the violence is not glorified. Most of the kids in there are not wanting to be doing it.
My uncles used to call me 'Devil Child,' or 'Triple' for triple six. They used to tell my brother Chris that they were going to get the demons out of him because he was also a little crazy. But to me, they'd just be like, 'You're too far gone. There's no exorcising you anymore.'
As the younger brother, I think you always have crushes on your older brother's girlfriends.
At this point, I'm happy to be part of something special. As an actor I liked to choose scripts that I'm passionate about.
I think a lot of stuff like people's emails getting hacked or that an email you sent is stored on a hard drive somewhere, that kind of stuff worries me a little bit. It's a weird thought that someone else could get into my information that easily. That stuff's pretty scary.
It's 'The Hunger Games.' My character needs to look hungry. A little bit.
I love New York. It just reminds me of so many movies... I look up at buildings, and feel like Godzilla should be climbing up them or something.
One of my favorite movies is 'A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints.'
I'd love to do action-y types of films; you know, as long as they're good stories.
