While we often focus on the intense and tough journeys the characters face in The Hunger Games, today we’re taking a look behind the scenes to see just how much the cast struggles through their costumes, makeup and prosthetics. Elizabeth Banks faced tons of struggles with her wild accessories and avant-garde clothing. The actress was often weighed down with heavy material or stuck inside tight clothing that made moving very difficult. When the actress was wearing the gorgeous Butterfly dress, she actually had a few people on set who were assigned to help her go to the bathroom when she needed to! On her feet, Banks was wearing “Fang Shoes” by a famous shoe designer - these heels are just as uncomfortable to wear as they sound! Filming the Capital scenes was tough for both the actors performing - including hundreds of extras, and of course the makeup hair and costume teams who all had to bring the magic to life. These crew members were often on their feet for hours at a time and all before shooting. As for the actors, thick layers of prosthetics and glue all over their bodies to attach them was not an ideal situation.
The first time Eugenie Bondurant had her make-up done as Tigris, the process took a whopping six hours! Wetsuits caused a few issues for Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson - Lawrence got so itchy at one point that she knocked over a giant sacred stone trying to find some relief! Hutcherson struggles with the heat of Hawaii in a wetsuit while filming such intense scenes. We’ve got the scoop on all this and more!
