Unique Challenges of 'Die My Love'

Lawrence, who has experience promoting everything from blockbuster franchises like The Hunger Games to award-winning films such as Silver Linings Playbook, finds discussing Die My Love particularly demanding. Directed by Lynne Ramsay, this intense and elliptical drama explores a new mother’s deteriorating mental health in the isolated Montana wilderness.

A Gutsy and Visceral Performance

Personal Struggles During Production

Lawrence gave birth to her first child in 2022 and was pregnant with her second during the production of Die My Love. She also faced postpartum depression while overseeing the project as a producer. “That was a ride,” the 35-year-old admits.

“I’ve found the process of promoting the film at length very personal and weird, given the depth of Die My Love’s themes.”
