All the buzz in the Lawrence interview centered on her time out from on-screen dominance, being pregnant with her first child with husband, art dealer Cooke Maroney, the ongoing challenge of managing her fame and ongoing internal psychological fallout from the infamous leaks of her private photos. We learned about what could have been an early-death plane crash for the star.

As for her career, Lawrence professed nervousness about walking back into the spotlight.

Speaking to Vanity Fair, the 31-year-old star said: "I'm so nervous... I haven't spoken to the world in forever. And to come back now, when I have all of these new accessories added to my life that I obviously want to protect."

"Every instinct in my body wants to protect their privacy for the rest of their lives, as much as I can. I don't want anyone to feel welcome into their existence. And I feel like that just starts with not including them in this part of my work," Lawrence explained to Vanity Fair’s Karen Valby.

Speaking about movies like ‘Passengers,’ ‘Mother!’, and ‘Red Sparrow’, Lawrence was eager to self-critique. "I was not pumping out the quality that I should have," she said. "I just think everybody had gotten sick of me. I'd gotten sick of me."

What Jennifer Lawrence didn’t know at the time of her Vanity Fair interview is that her new movie ‘Don’t Look Up’ is beyond blockbuster. It tallied a record-breaking number of hours viewed in a single week, according to Netflix.

Even more impressive, the satirical film described by its director Adam McKay, as aimed to be “a kick in the pants” that prompts urgent action on climate change, already sits at Netflix’s second biggest film ever.

In ‘Don’t Look Up’, a planet-killing comet hurtling toward Earth is a metaphor for the global climate crisis. Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence play distraught scientists scrambling to get politicians to act, and the public to believe them. This includes Meryl Streep, who represents US President, an uber-narcissistic President Orlean. Ahem. And Streep is back to being a babe. . . in red glasses and red suits.

We share a trailer of the film ‘Don’t Look Up’.

The film ‘Don’t Look Up’ has created tremendous joyous discussion and disagreement among scientists and activists, but also consensus that the film could be a jump-starter in the culture’s comparative inaction around climate science. Read more about the film in these articles.
