Jennifer Lawrence has won Academy Awards for her roles in prestige films like "Winter's Bone" and "Silver Linings Playbook," but that doesn't mean she'll turn down the role of a lifetime -- a cameo in the highly anticipated sequel to 1994's "Dumb and Dumber."

The Hollywood Reporter said Monday that the 23-year-old actress took time off the "Hunger Games" set to visit Atlanta, where she filmed her bit part as a younger version of Kathleen Turner's character in the original film.

The move shouldn't come as a surprise to fans of the "Hunger Games" star, who told Jimmy Fallon earlier this year that she knew "every word to 'Dumb and Dumber.'"

"Dumb and Dumber To" is slated to hit theaters in 2014.
