Joey King on Fighting Antisemitism at 12 Years Old and Having Trauma Counselors on the Set of Holocaust Series ‘We Were the Lucky Ones’


Joey King talks about filming the new Holocaust series 'We Were the Lucky Ones' and working with Zac Efron in the upcoming 'A Family Affair.'

Rounding out the cast are Sam Woolf, Robin Weigart, Lior Ashkenazi, Hadas Yaron, Amit Rahav and Eva Feiler. Everyone had different moments where we’re all sitting there having a nice time together, just filming a scene and then someone’s hyperventilating and crying because it’s a wave that washes over you.” King’s career has spanned many genres — from leading the action-fantasy “The Princess” and Netflix’s “Kissing Booth” trilogy with Jacob Elordi and Taylor Zakhar Perez to her Emmy-nominated work as Gypsy Rose Blanchard in “The Act.” One of her next films is the Richard LaGravenese-directed rom-com “A Family Affair” with Nicole Kidman and her childhood crush Zac Efron.
