The Hunger Games: Mockingjay actress Jena Malone and her boyfriend, musician and photographer Ethan DeLorenzo, are expecting their first child together.

The actress made the announcement on Instagram with a photo of the expectant mother cradling her small baby bump. She included some original poetry with the post, concluding: “It’s with two feet firmly on the ground and a heart swelling in an ocean of love that I’d like to share the new shape I am becoming to hold the greatest dream of them all.”

The actress made her first public appearance since announcing her pregnancy when she attended the premiere of her film Lovesong at the Sundance Film Festival.  Her next film, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, is scheduled to be released on March 25, 2016.
