Joey King Covers Teen Vogue

Joey King is on the cover of Teen Vogue. The actress is one of 7 stars who appear on the magazine’s Young Hollywood Class of 2019 issue.

In the issue, Joey talks about proving herself in Hollywood, her social media platform, her new show, The Act, and so much more. Highlights can be found below.

On proving herself in Hollywood: “I just really want to show people that what I do is so important to me, no matter what kind of role it is. I want to show people that I can do any kind of role. That I can take on anything and really just go at it 110%. The biggest challenge in proving myself is being able to obtain those roles and certain characters that really get to show the range that I have and want to show.”

On her new show, The Act: “The story is so messed up and there are so many layers, and it’s so, so heavy. I never want it to feel like we’re making fun of the story or we’re doing anything to romanticize it. It’s nitty-gritty; it’s really disturbing. And it’s uncomfortable because the story is really uncomfortable. What happened is so uncomfortable. And I’m really hyperaware of just trying to dive into Gypsy’s role as much as I can. I feel really proud of the work I’m doing.”
