"Mockingjay" stars Jennifer Lawrence and Liam Hemsworth had a great stay in Atlanta thanks in part to the efforts of Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby's International Realty agent Carter Phillips.

And when various filming projects starring Tyler Perry, Kate Hudson, Kiefer Sutherland, T.I. or Geena Davis needed a cool loft location for interior scenes, Phillips was the man with a plan.
A 12,000-square-foot Castleberry Hill loft owned by one of Phillips' clients was the site of filming for projects including "The Reluctant Fundamentalist, " starring Hudson and Sutherland; "Coma, " an A&E miniseries starring Davis, Perry's "The Marriage Counselor, " and a T. I. video.
The tireless and well-connected Phillips has also expanded his repertoire to helping stars find temporary housing while they're in Atlanta filming movies. He found suitable digs for Lawrence and Hemsworth, along with their late colleague Philip Seymour Hoffman, during "Mockingjay" filming.
Although he will not spill a single detail while the A-listers are in town (ask me how I know) Phillips was willing to share some details long after the fact. He enjoyed getting to know Hoffman, who he said took advantage of Atlanta's Piedmont Park during his time here, and was aggrieved at his untimely death.
J-Law and Liam were fun to work with. "Such a grounded and cool guy," Phillips said of the hunky Hunger Gamer.
With a steady stream of filming projects setting up shop in Atlanta, Phillips stays busy representing houses for filming and for celebrity accommodations. Could yours be next? Contact him using this link.
