Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrences private plane was forced to make an emergency landing due to engine failure. She is fine and came out unhurt, according to her representative.

The incident took place on Saturday when the 26-year-old was flying from her hometown Louisville, Kentucky, where she had been visiting family, when one of the plane's engines shut down, reports eonline.com.

According to her representative, Lawrence "emerged unscathed from the incident".

The jet was flying at 31,000 feet when it suffered engine failure, forcing the pilots to make an emergency landing in Buffalo.

But in the middle of the landing, the plane's other engine shut down, on what would have been an undoubtedly harrowing flight for "The Hunger Games" star.

 

After touching down in Buffalo, the jet was met by emergency vehicles.
