Josh Hutcherson Covers Flaunt Magazine

Josh Hutcherson is on the cover of Flaunt magazine. Josh is on the cover to promote his new film The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2. Highlights from the interview are below.

On the difficulty of fandoms: “It’s absolutely insane, not just the media’s invasiveness, but social media and even fans. I have so many fan groups that hate on the people around me. Any girlfriend that I have, or friends that are around me, they get hate mail on Twitter and Instagram. You can say whatever you want about me, because I don’t read it, but my friends and family—they’re not doing anything wrong at all, and yet they’re unfairly getting dragged into this.”

On why fans love The Hunger Games series: “I think it all starts with a love for the characters. Katniss’ reality of family, of love, and wanting to take care of both of those things—that’s something that resonates with so many people. Then you put her in a situation that has a lot of correlations between what’s happening in our world. Separation of rich and poor, feeling oppressed, feeling taken advantage of, and it’s happening all over the world, and we can see that, so the story is very relevant”.
