After the success of The Hunger Games, a 13-year-old Jamieson told LancasterOnline in March 2012, 'I knew that the books were popular, but I didn’t know that the movie was going to be so big.'

At the time Jamieson said that it was 'pretty awesome' how fans recognized him and asked for autographs at the Los Angeles red carpet premiere of the film. 

Despite starring in the huge blockbuster, Jamieson said he didn't want to pursue acting as a full-time career.

'I want to be just a normal person,' he said.
