SVA Theatre and The Top of the Standard. March 20, 2012. By Jennifer Vineyard

Jennifer Lawrence says that she’s embarrassed watching the way she runs. Do you have the same problem? “I’m athletically perfect, so no.” —JOSH HUTCHERSON

ZOE KRAVITZ

How would you do in the Hunger Games arena? “I’m Australian. I grew up in the Outback, fighting crocodiles, wrestling sharks. No, I think I’d do okay.” —LIAM HEMSWORTH

MéLANIE LAURENT

Do you think you could survive the Hunger Games? “I’m a very dirty fighter, so I think I could survive a couple rounds. And I was a model, so I really don’t have to eat much.” What’s the longest you’ve gone without food? “Three and a half years.” —BRIDGET MOYNAHAN

ISABELLE FUHRMAN

What would you do to survive the arena? “Well, I have endurance. I can do a long, slow run. So if I got chased long enough—we’re talking hours, like a really slow run, like twenty-minute miles—they would fall down. And then I could mock them.” —SETH MEYERS

PATTI SMITH

How would you fend off people trying to kill you? “I would sing.” Got a song in mind? “‘And I’m Telling You I’m Not Going.’ That would do it.” —ALAN CUMMING

CHEYENNE JACKSON

What would you do to survive the arena? “I would form alliances, and then I would murder everyone in the night. I would literally be like, ‘Sleep well, little baby,’ and then I would kill everyone in their sleep. I would get no sponsors. But I would win.” —CHRISSY TEIGEN

GARY ROSS

What did you think of the movie? “We didn’t see it. We were at the Knicks game.” How would you survive in the arena? “I can talk. I would talk my way out of it.” —SPIKE LEE

JENNIFER LAWRENCE

You wrote the screenplay for Game Change. Will the sequel be like The Hunger Games? Hunger Game Change. Obama, Hillary, John Edwards, etc. would all have to fight to the death, to see whoever wins as president.” Who would win? “Rielle Hunter, because she has special powers that no one can truly comprehend. I’m just saying: special powers.” —DANNY STRONG (Timothy Hiatt/Getty Images)

VICTOR CRUZ

Would you survive the Hunger Games? “I don’t think any of us would survive. You can climb a tree, you can light a fire, you can run. But then you just die.” —STANLEY TUCCI

ABIGAIL BRESLIN

Could you survive the arena? “I’m from New York! Trust me, I’d survive.” —TONY DANZA
