"Captain Marvel" everyone went to see it on the weekend, in addition to the glowing Captain Marvel himself, there is also a little cute with great "treasure" potential in the movie.
No, I'm not talking about the orange cat, but one of the childhood Captain Marvel actors, McKenna Grace.
To be able to participate in a Marvel female protagonist superhero movie like "Captain Marvel", As a Marvel fan, McKenna could not hide her excitement and began to dance on the red carpet of the premiere.
McKenna also posted a red carpet photo of herself and Brie Larson on social networks, and the two Captain Marvels, one big and one small, were stunning.
In Hollywood, there are very few 13-year-old girls who have the acting experience of McKenna.
From "I, Queen of Flowers" to "Captain Marvel", from "Ghost Invasion" to "The Vampire Diaries", McKenna's figure has frequently appeared in the most popular movies and TV series, and even at a young age, she already has a starring masterpiece such as "Genius Girl".
From McKenna's acting experience, it is not difficult to find that she has played many childhood versions of adult roles.
In "Captain Marvel", McKenna played the young Captain Marvel Carol Danvers, appearing in her memory flashback shots. Falling down again and again, standing up again and again, stubborn and determined.
In the Oscar-winning "I, Queen of Tricks," McKenna played the childhood version of Tanya Harding, the role of Margot Robbie. McKenna's shots in this film are not too many, but they are also impressive, and she also learned to skate specifically for this purpose.
Why did McKenna get so many good opportunities to star in the "childhood version"?
First of all, of course, because she is good-looking. McKenna is like a doll with exquisite facial features, a growing beauty embryo, which can easily capture the audience's heart. A pair of light-colored eyes, water spirit eyes coupled with long and thick eyelashes, make McKenna's entire face vivid, especially when acting in crying scenes, the advantage is obvious.
Why does McKenna look so good? Let's take a look, her mom and dad...
It can be seen that in addition to giving McKenna a good look, her parents also love and care for her.
McKenna's face was rarely gloomy, and most of the time her smile was bright, with the innocence and self-confidence characteristic of this age, full of vitality. At the same time, she is also very smart and can understand the effect that the director wants to make.
Who wouldn't want such a cute and intelligent little girl to play their own childhood version?
Margot Robbie hugged McKenna
In Fairytale Town, she played the childhood heroine Emma Swan,
In The Vampire Diaries, she played the childhood version of the popular character Caroline.
In Ghost Invasion, she is Theo's childhood cast.
McKenna is very popular in fantasy and thriller American dramas, but one of the most interesting cameos should be played as the young heroine Sabrina in "Sabrina's Thrilling Adventure".
The two have long been ridiculed by fans for looking like a person, and this casting is also proposed by female lead actress Kiran Shipka. Kieran showed the director a photo of herself and McKenna, and strongly recommended that McKenna be found to participate. As a result, there are two Sabrina of different ages who are similar to god.
McKenna, who began acting at the age of 6, finally ushered in the first breakthrough of her acting career at the age of 10 - starring in "Genius Girl" with Chris Evans, playing a mathematical genius Mary who lost her mother at a young age.
As an actor, it is certainly exciting to have a film masterpiece starring you. McKenna is indeed the eye of "Genius Girl", and the Mary she plays has both the innocent side of a child and the mature side brought about by the loss of her mother, and McKenna naturally integrates these two points into the performance.
As a Marvel fan, she's happy to work with Chris Evans. In her eyes, Chris was a role model like Captain America.
Therefore, the kind McKenna said bluntly in the interview that one of her least favorite scenes was one of the scenes where she punched Chris in the face. "I had to really hit him, it made me sad, and he was red in the face after the shoot!"
"Does it hurt?" "Nothing."
Of course, McKenna is very familiar with her intersection with Marvel: "I think I am so lucky to be able to work with Captain America (Chris Evans) and Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan), and then to play Captain Marvel as a child, I love Marvel too much." 」 ”
In "Genius Girl", every crying scene she makes is heartbreaking. On set, director Mark Webb would give McKenna plenty of time to prepare. McKenna said: "He will also cry with me so that I don't fall into bad emotions alone." ”
The final result can be imagined: not only the director cried with her, Chris also cried with her, and the audience also had to cry with her.
McKenna, who is "very good at crying", also made a cameo appearance in "Ready Player One". When the death of Oasis founder James Halliday was announced at the beginning of the film, McKenna played a grieving schoolboy who wept over the death of her idol.
Although there were only a few seconds of footage, she was able to complete the task successfully.
"Genius Girl" McKenna also made a few cameo appearances in "Little Sheldon", and Ian Armitage made up a pair of "genius CPs", which is very cute.
After playing a lot of sweet and positive roles, McKenna took on a new role, playing the heroine Emma in the new version of the horror film "Bad Seed", a little girl with an angelic face and a devil's heart.
This film allowed McKenna to try to perform roles that contrasted with herself and broaden her own path. Moreover, while filming "Bad Breed" and "Ghost Invasion", McKenna had to fly to Los Angeles every weekend to prepare and train for the shooting of "Captain Marvel", which was also a big test for her early teens.
Sweet blonde girls are always perfect for horror movies. After starring in Bad Breeds and Ghost Invasion, horror films opened the door for McKenna, and her next new film was Annabelle 3, produced by Wen Ziren.
McKenna Grace, who just turned 13 this year, is constantly adding new highlights to her resume.
Looking forward to seeing you on the screen again!
