Lawrence admitted to Diaz that she considers “dipping out a lot” from acting when she’s working, but then another project she really wants to do always comes along.
The Silver Linings Playbook star has her concerns about Cy growing up the child of a Famous Person, and the weirdness that might cause for him, “but kids have advantages and disadvantages when they’re born, all of them,” she said. “The best thing I can do is just make sure he knows he’s loved, and that he’s our number one priority, and try to be a good example of kindness. I’m sure there will be challenges specifically from my choices and my lifestyle, and we’ll both have to confront that and deal with it when that day comes.”
In the meantime, Cy has helped her rise above what has historically been one of her biggest challenges since becoming a movie star.
When it comes to paparazzi, Lawrence explained that she had no choice but to be “a little bit more Zen” about having her picture taken, because she doesn’t want to be a font of anxiety and anger in front of her son.
“You just have to accept it,” she said, “and take a deep breath and walk.”
The American Hustle star is also pretty chill when it comes to the idea of letting her firstborn watch her movies one day—just maybe not No Hard Feelings.
“I don’t worry about him pushing play on that,” she teased to E! News in June 2023, later adding, “I bet he’ll love The Hunger Games.”
