Warner Bros. has attached Jennifer Lawrence to star in director Steven Spielberg’s “It’s What I Do: A Photographer’s Life of Love and War,” sources confirm.

The studio won an auction Monday for the rights to the memoir by Lynsey Addario, the award-winning international photojournalist.

“American Sniper” producer Andrew Lazar is on board the drama.

The project attracted multiple offers after an excerpt of Addario’s memoir appeared in the the New York Times Magazine. ICM is repping the author.

Addario, who has traveled to war-torn countries like Afghanistan, Libya and Iraq, won the MacArthur Fellowship in 2008 and was part of the New York Times team that won a Pulitzer Prize in 2009 for International Reporting for her work in Waziristan. She was jailed for several days in Libya in 2011.

Yeah, J-Law needs to start working in independent films again. I've been very unimpressed with her acting career since the release of The Hunger Games. Even her performance in Silver Linings Playbook was very meh to me.

I don't know about all that, but I was surprised she won considering Bradley Cooper totally carried that movie.

Now Winter's Bone she fricking owned.

What? I'm not a Jennifer Lawrence freak like some people, but I have to disagree. I thought she was good in The Hunger Games movies and she was almost great in Silver Linings Playbook.

Jennifer Lawrence is good, but I wish some other actresses would get a chance. She doesn't have to be in every damn movie.

Yes. I do. But I also know that a ton of the movies in interested in that require a female lead have her in them.
