Shields’ first job was in 2008, where she had a small narrating role in the short film Las Vegas New Mexico 1875. She then made her screen debut for playing Lisa Rogan on the USA drama series In Plain Sight, a minor character seen in the episode In My Humboldt Opinion which was released in 2009. In 2011, Shields appeared in the television film Beyond the Blackboard alongside actress Emily VanCamp. In the film, she portrays a homeless child named Grace.
Shields was next cast in the science fiction adventure film The Hunger Games in April 2011, her first feature film role, where she was given the supporting role of Primrose Everdeen. Released the following year in March, The Hunger Games broke several box-office records and emerged as one of the highest-grossing films of its year. It was positively received by critics and audiences, and helped bring Shields widespread recognition. On portraying Primrose, she has said that “just growing up as the character is going to be really fun”.
Shields went on to reprise the role of Primrose in the rest of the franchise. The series’ second installment was the highest-grossing film of 2013, as well as the best received film of the franchise; she earned a nomination for a Young Hollywood Award for her performance in 2014. She was set to reprise the role for the series’ final two films, Mockingjay Part 1 and Mockingjay Part 2, released in 2014 and 2015 respectively to critical and commercial success. The four films grossed a collective $2.97 billion at the box-office, which places it at 21st on the list of highest-grossing film franchises of all time. For Mockingjay Part 2, she received a nomination for an MTV Award.
