In the canon, Jenna Malone’s character Johanna Mason is a survivor of sexual exploitation after the evil President Snow tries to traffic her. When she resists, he kills her family.
Malone wrote that it became difficult to discuss Johanna or even the movies because it reminded her of her own survival story, but she’s on a path to healing.
“It’s been hard to talk about and Johanna Mason without feeling the sharpness of this moment in time but I’m ready to move thru (sic) it and reclaim the joy and accomplishment I felt,” she wrote.
Malone then ended her post with an optimistic note on her progress and accomplishments, and encouraged other survivors to continue their healing process. She said her DMs were open to anyone who needed space to discuss their trauma.
Power to you, Jenna Malone.
