Jacque Emerson, the actress who will play Foxface at the upcoming Hunger Games movie, answers questions from fans from Twitter via
Teen Vogue. Here are her answers to the questions.
@Margo15: Did you act out Foxface as you perceived in the book?
The great thing about Foxface is that there isn't a lot in the book. I
had a lot of liberty to explore the character and her back-story. I
definitely tried to stay as true to the character as I could.
@Biigiimeow: What do you think of the books?
Love them. I was a huge fan before I got cast. I think they're really smart.
@Lilbalbi: What was the best part about being involved with the games and working with everyone on set?
Probably meeting everyone. I got to learn so much because every one of
my castmates was unbelievably talented. We became such a tight knit
family.
@SassyDianaMarie: Foxface is a very independent character. A loner. Any parallels between the two regarding such?
Foxface really figures out the game analytically. She's a critical
thinker. If I were ever in the Games, I would think of them that way; I
wouldn't go in and fight and try to kill people. I'd think: How can I
best beat the games from a mental standpoint? (But I would be running
and hiding a lot!)
@daniellenuss: What character would you have liked to play if you didn't land the role of Foxface?
Obviously Katniss is such a strong female lead. We don't have enough of
those right now in books and stories. She's an inspirational character. I
can't think of anyone who would play her better than Jen. I'd love to
play Rue in another universe where I looked more like the character!
She's the emotional heart of the story. Caesar Flickerman would be so
much fun, because Stanley Tucci is so amazing. Effie would be such a fun
character to play, too!
@kissmemissmeXO: Jackie, how long have you acted, and was it a surprise when you got your role in The Hunger Games?
I have been acting since I was six years old and tried out for a
production of "Annie." I was completely surprised and unbelievably
excited when I got cast! I definitely jumped on my bed a bit...
@a_pittigher: Ask her about her experience with the cast and what she plans to do from here on out.
My experience with the cast was really great. We all became a tight-knit
family in the months we were filming together. I'm releasing my new
music video really soon (announcing the release date shortly) and I have
a couple other projects in the works! I'm really excited! I also am
planning on going to college.
Trivia: Jackie is already accepted to Stanford University (where she hopes to major in Performing Arts and Asian Studies).
