Jennifer Lawrence, who plays heroine Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games, has ended her relationship with her boyfriend of the last two years, actor Nicholas Hoult.
“They’re young and grew apart,” a source told In Touch magazine. “But they remain friends.”
There’s no word yet from either of the pair’s representatives.
The pair met on the set of X Men in 2010 and have been open about their relationship ever since.
“[My boyfriend] is honestly my best friend, and hopefully I’m his best friend too,” the 22-year-old actress told Elle in Dec. 2012. “He’s my favorite person to be around and he makes me laugh harder than anybody.”
Lawrence, 22, stepped out solo at the People’s Choice Awards in Los Angeles on Wednesday, where she took home multiple wins, including Favorite Movie Actress.
She’s also secured a Golden Globe nomination for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture for her role in Silver Linings Playbook.
In response to the nod, Lawrence said: “Wow. I’m so lucky and to be in a category of other talents – Meryl Streep, Judi Dench, Maggie Smith and Emily Blunt, who have also portrayed independently-minded and driven female characters… that’s very cool. ”

It’s being reported that Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult have gone their separate ways. The couple, who met on the set of X-Men: First Class back in 2010, had been dating for just about two years. Apparently, the two split because of their busy schedules. Jen was off filming The Hunger Games: Catching Fire from September to December in both Atlanta and Hawaii, respectively, while Nick has been promoting his upcoming zombie rom-com Warm Bodies.
In addition to Jen’s Catching Firing shooting schedule, she was on the promotion trail for Silver Linings Playbook, and is currently in the midst of a very hectic awards season. On Thursday, Jen won a Critic’s Choice Award for her performance in Silver Linings Playbook, and is also nominated for a Golden Globe and an Academy Award (her second nomination in two years), as well. Also, Nick not only has Warm Bodies coming out on February 1, but his film Jack the Giant Slayer is set to hit theaters on March 1.
Though the two have reportedly split they will reunite to film X-Men: Days of Future Past, the sequel to X-Men: First Class, a little later this year. In the film, Jen plays mutant Mystique, the love interest to Nick’s Beast character.
Jen was never one to shy away from talking about Nick, as she told Elle magazine back in December, “[My boyfriend] is honestly my best friend, and hopefully I’m his best friend too. He’s my favorite person to be around and makes me laugh harder than anybody.”
What do you think about this possible split? Let us know in the comments.
Young Adult lit fans worried that Twilight’s Bella and Edward might be the movies’ last supernatural-fantasy couple can rest easy: Warm Bodies is set to be the next great romance featuring two characters not just from different walks of life, but different species.
In the upcoming film, Nicholas Hoult plays R, a zombie who takes a shine to Julie (Teresa Palmer), the girlfriend of one of his latest meals. The duo make an unlikely but unexpectedly charming pair after R brings her back to his lair, vowing to protect her from his brains-eating brethren even as he shows her the post-living world he’s created for himself in an abandoned airplane.
But in a new clip exclusive to Celebuzz, R and Julie find their burgeoning romance tested after the prejudices of others – namely, Julie’s father, General Grigio (John Malkovich) – threaten to keep them separated, permanently, by putting a couple of bullets into R’s undead head.
Audiences know Hoult from his turn as Hank McCoy, a/k/a Beast, in X-Men: First Class, while Palmer made a case for changing the name of I Am Number Four as the title character’s ass-kicking companion, Number Six. Writer-director Jonathan Levine wrung both comedy and drama out of the true-life story of a cancer patient’s efforts to fight off his disease in 50/50, after introducing himself to the world with the ‘90s-set dramedy The Wackness.
Watch Celebuzz’ exclusive clip for Warm Bodies, which breaks down the world and the characters within the film. And then let us know in the comments below – how excited are you for a new movie about forbidden love?
It’s been a busy few weeks for Joey Graceffa! Not only did he interview Chris Colfer and Sarah Hyland about their new movie Struck By Lighting, but he also got to chat with the cast of Warm Bodies! That’s right, Joey sat down with the handsome Nicholas Hoult and the gorgeous Teresa Palmer to talk all about their new zombie rom-com that’s out on February 1. Since the movie is a love story set during a zombie apocalypse, Joey started off the interview by offering the stars some “brain” candy — and they loved it! The co-stars also talk about their experience of making the film, some of their favorite memories, as well as what it was like hiding their accents (Teresa is Australian, Nick is a Brit). That’s not the best part, because Joey got to get zombie-fied just like they did in the movie! To see the whole interview as well as Joey’s transformation, watch the video above!

Since we already know that Warm Bodies is going to be the next big thing — you saw our set visit, right?! — we couldn’t keep these new images to ourselves. Courtesy of Summit, you can now see more pictures of Nicholas Hoult and Teresa Palmer getting their zombie-human love on, as well as stills of Dave Franco, Analeigh Tipton, Rob Corddry, and John Malkovich, and behind-the-scenes photos. We know, it’s a lot to take in.
To give you some background, Nicholas Hoult plays a zombie who doesn’t know when he lost his life, how he ended up in an abandoned airport, or even his own name. So he just refers to himself as “R.” (You can get all of this information from the first 4 minutes of the movie.) “R” falls in love with Julie (Teresa Palmer), the girlfriend of one of his victims (Dave Franco). After they become involved, their romance “sets in motion a sequence of events that might transform the entire lifeless world.”
Warm Bodies hits theaters February 1. For more pictures — new and old — check out the zombie-filled gallery below. P.S. Make sure to stay tuned for our interviews with the cast!

Teresa Palmer and Nicholas Hoult get drenched after taking an un-planned dip in a lagoon in this new still from Warm Bodies.
The 26-year-old actress chatted with Collider about her character, Julie’s will to escape and live.
“There are some funny scenes where she starts to plot this idea to get him out of the plane. She pretends that she’s hungry and she wants him to leave. Then as soon as he walks out you see her get up and sprint to the window to make sure he’s gone and then she just legs it and she’s out of there. But, sure enough, she’s in this area where there are just hundreds of zombies who just start attacking her and, again, he’s forced to save her life,” Teresa shared.
She added, “I think she realizes she’s kind of powerless. There’s not much she can do. It’s funny though, I think, after the first few days she realizes, ‘This is my situation and I’m going to make the best of it.’ When she lets down her guard like that, that’s when the friendship and ultimate relationship starts to blossom.”
Warm Bodies opens February 1st. 35+ pics inside…
Step aside, vampires and werewolves. There are new creatures taking over in 2013: zombies, like in Warm Bodies. Oh, and I was one of them! One of many perks of working at Teen.com is the opportunity for visiting movie sets. However, never have I ever experienced the treat Summit Entertainment — ya know, the peeps behind The Twilight Saga — had in store for the press on this trip.
In November of 2011, I not only went behind the scenes of the Montreal set of Warm Bodies, but I also had the chance to interview its stars, Nicholas Hoult and Teresa Palmer, and actually be in the movie, makeup treatment and all, as a zombie extra! Though I couldn’t bring all of you physically with me, I want (slash need) to share the once-in-a-lifetime experience with you…

Though we’re sad 2012 is coming to and end, it certainly was a year of amazing movies. We finally got to see The Hunger Games on the big screen, and we were met with mixed emotions as The Twilight Saga came to an end. However, there is a whole slew of movies that are coming out in 2013, and they all look pretty awesome. So, though it was tough, we decided to narrow it down to the top 13 movies we’re excited for in 2013. Check them out below!

Chris Colfer not only stars in the upcoming film Struck By Lightning, but he wrote the screenplay, too!

Beautiful Creatures (February 12, 2013)
It’s another YA novel come to life on the big screen! In Beautiful Creatures, a teenager named Lena (Alice Englert) has a family with dark secrets, and ends up meeting (and falling ins love with) a boy named Ethan (Alden Ehrenreich). The dark secrets of her family threaten to keep them apart, but the two can’t stay away from each other. Beautiful Creatures also stars The Help‘s Viola Davis.

Ender’s Game (November 1, 2013)
OK, we know that most of the movies on our list are adaptations of YA novels, but we just can’t help it — they all look so good! This next flick we’re excited for is Ender’s Game. This book was actually published back in 1985, and has taken this long to get to the big screen due to its complex nature. Starring Hugo‘s Asa Butterfield, Abigail Breslin, Hailee Steinfeld, and Harrison Ford, it’s about a gifted young boy (Asa) who is recruited to a special school to help fight off an alien attack.
Summit
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (November 22, 2013)
Last, but certainly not least, it’s The Hunger Games: Catching Fire! Though we’ve seen sneak peeks of the cast filming in Atlanta and Hawaii, we just can’t wait to see this movie hit the big screen. Obviously the first one was great, but we’re excited to see the cast back in action (Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, etc), as well as the new additions (Jena Malone as Johanna Mason, Sam Claflin as Finnick Odair), and Francis Lawrence (the new director) bring CF to the big screen.

And there you have it! The 13 movies we’re most looking forward to in 2013. Are there any other flicks you’re particularly excited for? Let us know in the comments!
The first four minutes of your new favorite zombie rom-com, Warm Bodies, has hit the web — and it looks like a bloody good time.
Based on the novel by Isaac Marion, the film follows teenage zombie R (Nicholas Hoult) as he falls in love with a human girl named Julie (Teresa Palmer) and soon realizes she makes him feel very human things.
In the first four minutes of the film, R wanders aimlessly through a destroyed airport, dreaming of what the zombies he passes by used to be like when they were living humans — and commenting on his “terrible” posture. R also warns of the Bonies, savage creatures who’ll “eat anything with a heartbeat.” Eek!
Unfortunately for R, it’s only a matter of time before he becomes a Bonie too. As he watches a zombie take off a chunk of what used to be flesh, he muses, “This is what I have to look forward to.”
Then R’s best friend (Rob Corddry) – because zombies have BFFs too – and they engage some grunt-filled conversation.
Warm Bodies hits theaters Feb. 1. Are you excited for the new zombie flick starring X-Men: First Class star Nicholas Hoult? Sound off in the comments!
