X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX Star Jennifer Lawrence Quizzed About X-Men During Lie Detector Test

Jennifer Lawrence has starred in four X-Men movies, and despite that, has trouble naming five X-Men characters during a recent interview. Check out the actress' lie-detector test video after the jump...

Whilst doing press for Red Sparrow, Jennifer Lawrence was presented with a lie detector test by Vanity Fair. Most questions are unrelated to her role as Mystique in the X-Men films, ranging from whether the actress has a favourite brother to whether she'd sacrifice one person, by pushing them onto a train track, to save twenty people's lives - however, when she's asked to name 5 of the X-Men, she says she can't.


As you can see, the actress doesn't even attempt to name a single character. Of course, had she taken some time to think about it, she no doubt would have been able to recall a few names, but it seems the parameters of the test have the Academy Award-winner a little flustered.

What do you think about Jennifer Lawrence's performance as Mystique thus far? Can you name five X-Men?

I mean...she just phones it in, is this really surprising? She's a good actress, but bad in this role and can't wait for it to end.

So we're just going to pretend we're surprised or what?

@TexasAvenger - She should at least remember Magneto or Beast, I mean she was pretty close to those characters in the movies. She's the character who [frick]ing named them in First Class.

Great actress, horrible actress in the X-men films.

@aflynn - I think everyone agrees she couldn't careless in Apcolyose (though i suspect that was due to Singer; she described the set as chaotic), but I think she was good in FC and great in DoFP.

Hopefully she is back to that level for Dark Phoenix.

LOL! Look at people attacking her.......do you think many of these actors/actresses care about comicbooks and the characters?

They are actors and actresses, they get paid to pretend to be someone.

@JoeMomma29 - I agree, most would be surprised at how little these actors actually know about the films they take part in. Not to mention most don’t watch them after filming (which on average takes about 3-4 months so expecting them to remember much aside from their own role is quite silly.)

@JoeMomma29 - She's worked on 4 X-movies in a pretty big role by now. Doesn't seem like a crazy idea to me that she might remember one or two names.
