Most people would still be figuring out what to do with their lives at 25. Joey King is not most people. She has been in front of the camera for more than two decades; first in commercials, and then with roles in movies and TV shows such as Ramona and Beezus and The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, respectively. The transition from child star to successful, functional young adult is notoriously tricky, but King has done it with grace. In 2018, she shot into mega-fame territory with the release of the first in Netflix's The Kissing Booth trilogy. Since then, she has expanded her range in genres spanning the dystopian YA Uglies to the Holocaust drama We Were the Lucky Ones. Last year, King was named the Max Mara Face of the Future at the Women in Film Gala. In this exclusive interview, she tells us about future plans and female empowerment.
