According to the Hunger Games alum, she wanted to work with Aronofsky, 47, ever since the release of his Oscar-winning 2010 film, Black Swan.

As previously reported, Lawrence and Aronofsky first sparked dating rumors back in October when they were spotted having a cozy dinner together at Los Angeles’ Commissary restaurant. The pair took their romance public in New York City earlier this month during two PDA-filled outings.
