'Hunger Games' star, Jennifer Lawrence recently mentioned that filming alongside Leonardo DiCaprio was utter and pure "hell". She reveals why filming Adam McKay's upcoming Netflix film, 'Don't Look Up', with co-stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Timothee Chalamet, was unbearable. 

“It was the most annoying day in my life", Jennifer Lawrence told Stephen Colbert while making small talk on his eponymous talk show which took place on Monday. The day, in particular, was a scene shot in a car, avec DiCaprio, Chalamet, and Lawrence. She added, "They drove me crazy that day". 'Don't Look Up' focuses on two astronomers (DiCaprio and Lawrence) and their attempts at warning world leaders of an asteroid that's on course to destroy Earth.

The reason behind Lawrence being annoyed is unclear. "I don't know what it was", she said. “Timothee was just excited to be out of the house (after the pandemic lockdown). I think it was, like, his first scene. And Leo had picked the song that was playing in the car and was just, like, ‘You know, this song was about, you know, blah, blah, blah", she added. 



 

Although she doesn't know what ticked her off, Lawrence recalls being absolutely miserable that day. On the other hand, she also thought it was really cool to be shooting in a room of talented actors, some of whom include DiCaprio, Chalamet, Meryl Streep, Chris Evans, Tyler Perry, and Jonah Hill. 



 

Lawrence’s appearance on 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' is the first we're seeing her ever since her hiatus, as of 2019. She also opened up about her time away from the spotlight.

Lawrence, who is expecting her first child with husband Cooke Maroney next year, admitted that her time off feels like a welcomed hiatus from Hollywood itself. She mentioned that "I've always found comfort in a schedule, and doing something and being somewhere, and just kind of the comfort of being on set where the world is one thing and very organized". 

'Don’t Look Up' premieres in theaters on December 10, 2021, and will be out on Netflix on December 24, 2021.
