Here's something to look forward to post-Mockingjay Part 2 Tributes!
TheWrap is reporting that our lead actress Jennifer Lawrence and our Mockingjay Part 1 & 2 director Francis Lawrence will once again be working together in the film called "The Dive" to be produced by Avatar and Titanic director -- James Cameron. The film is going to be a biopic that will tell the unfortunate story of freedivers Francisco "Pipin" Ferraras and his wife Audrey Mestre. Jennifer Lawrence is in talks to star as Mestre while Francis Lawrence is in talks to helm the film.

Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence and her “Hunger Games” director Francis Lawrence are reteaming on “The Dive,” which is being produced by James Cameron, TheWrap has learned. 

Representatives for Jennifer Lawrence and Francis Lawrence did not respond to multiple requests for comment. 

“The Dive” tells the tragic true story of freedivers Francisco “Pipin” Ferraras and his wife Audrey Mestre, who competed to travel as deep as possible underwater on a single breath of air.

Lawrence will play Mestre, who died during an attempt to beat her own world record of 557.7 feet. Ferraras paid tribute to his late wife by diving to the same depth in an attempt that was filmed by Cameron. 

The Lawrences have worked together on “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire” and the two-part finale “Mockingjay.”

Jennifer Lawrence will also be teaming up with Silver Linings Playbook director David O. Russell on the 2015 film "Joy" and with The Hunger Games director Gary Ross on the currently in development film "East of Eden."
