Lenny Kravitz stars in "The Hunger Games", which comes out next month. The movie is based on the popular novel of the same name. It's set in post-apocalyptic North America, where teenage gladiators are chosen to battle to the death in televised games. Kravitz plays Cinna, a stylist and confidant to main character Katniss Everdeen, who's played by Jennifer Lawrence.
Lenny said: "I always figured acting would come back into my life. I was an actor when I was a kid. When I realized music was my thing, I just gave it up. I put blinders on, just focused on music. It's come back now and I really am enjoying it. I thought it was really good storytelling. I'm very much into stories. The character was interesting. So I said, Yeah, let's go."
The film opens March 23rd.
