Jennifer Lawrence is addressing rumors she filmed a cameo for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes.

The No Hard Feelings star made an appearance on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live and host Andy Cohen read a viewer question about a rumor Lawrence would “appear in The Hunger Games prequel as Katniss’s grandmother” as the film takes place 49 years before the events of the first movie.

“Oh, ’cause I’m 49 in Hollywood years, huh?” Lawrence quipped.

She then said, “No, that’s not true,” denying she would make an appearance in the prequel film.

Cohen asked Lawrence if she took anything from The Hunger Games set and the Oscar winner said she took a bow and arrow and the boots “from like every movie” that she keeps in her closet.
