Elizabeth Banks

Elizabeth Banks has revealed that Woody Harrelson is fun to be around on set because of all the jokes he tells.

Banks teams up with the Oscar nominee for new movie The Hunger Games, which is an adaptation of the Suzanne Collins novel.

Banks admits that she too likes to joke and laugh when things get tough during a shoot so Harrelson was the perfect person to have around.

Speaking to MTV.com the actress said: "Woody is a great partner in crime.

"He tells really off-colour jokes and is fantastically self-deprecating and fun to be around.

"I think whenever it's difficult, one of my favourite ways to deal with it is to joke around.

"We take the work seriously, but we try not to take ourselves too seriously."

Elizabeth Banks has already enjoyed big screen success this year with Man In A Ledge and she will take on the role of Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games.

She is also set to star as a pregnant mother to be in What To Expect When You're Expecting later this year.

The Hunger Games is released 23rd March
