When global gamers are excited about the news that HBO is about to adapt the PS4 game "The Last of Us" to become a series, who will play the protagonist of the game, the smuggler Joel and the 14-year-old girl Ellie (Ellie) has become another topic of creativity for netizens. When the game was released in 2013, many players thought that Ellen’s character should be designed based on Ellen Page. But now, it’s a bit reluctant to make 33-year-old Peggy play the 14-year-old Ellen. . And the 13-year-old McKenna Grace (Mckenna Grace) is the number one choice for many people.
Grace can be said to be the busiest 13-year-old girl in Hollywood today. According to statistics from E! Online, she has almost played the teenage years of many screen heroines. Let's take a look, which works does this young Hollywood star appear in?
1. " Sabrina's Thrilling Adventures " (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina)
Sabrina knew from an early age that there is an unavoidable life worry waiting for her: she will be on her 16th birthday Witch. The youthful and invincible Kiernan Shipka, in the Netflix series "Sabrina's Shocking Adventure", plays Sabrina the sweet and deadly girl witch when she smiles. She is too cute, so the girl who played Sabrina when she was a child had to have the same cute charm, and McKenna Grace was selected. You can see the story of Grace's little Sabrina praying for Santa in the first season special episode.

Kiernan Shipka and McKenna Grace look so alike, they have thick eyebrows and small noses, of course, their smiles seem to have magical powers.
2. " Captain Marvel " (Captain Marvel)

But Grace is not just pretending to be cute, she plays the role of Captain Marvel. The captain of the era, we can see that she participated in the karting race and was asked not to drive too fast. Her response was to step on the accelerator hard and the rushing car collided with the car in front, causing her to overturn violently. She was covered with straw, injuries and tears. She only said angrily to the adults who came to her and yelled at her "You can't enter":
they can race.
The heroine of this movie, Brie Larson, is not white and sweet. She has a straight face like a male hero in a traditional action movie, so we can’t read from her face. Her motivation to become a hero. The surprise of Captain Marvel is part of the reason for these fast and broken memories of the past: in the memory fragments of the heroine, she is a girl who refuses to admit defeat, and the more she gritted her teeth in trouble. And Grace needs to be that young stubborn soul. She fell too well in the scene of the racing track.
3. " I, Queen of Flowers " (I, Tonya)
But a car crash is not a very important performance, and Grace only appeared in the opening scene of "I, Tonya", but this scene But it is much more important. In this clip of Tonia’s mother and daughter going to the skating rink to look for a coach, although the main role is the rude mother Allison Janney, but Grace, who can’t defy her mother and performs ice dancing skills with a face, It is the finishing touch. This scene explains how Tonya, who was dominated by her mother and almost forbidden, succumbed to pressure, but still suppressed herself from performing her best performance-this reflects her desire to be out of the control of her mother as an adultCircumstance, and the reason why the inferiority complex changed to arrogance after freedom.
The mother played by Alison Jane criticized Grace's performance with the worst curse on the sidelines, even the other mothers off the court can't stand it, and you can see Grace pursing her lips as if she didn't hear these words. . And when even the only father who loved her ran away from home, her weak body stood in front of his father's car and begged him not to leave.
Grace's opening performance in "I, Queen of Flowers" allowed Tonya, who was performing by Margot Robbie (Margot Robbie), to be able to do whatever it takes, because the audience has understood from the mistreatment of Grace. To this girl who has not been loved since she was a child, she is bound to go on a crooked road when she grows up.
4. " genius girl " (Gifted)
film company is not satisfied, film reviews are not satisfied, and the audience that supports is much less, " The Amazing Spider-Man 2" (The Amazing Spider-Man 2) only took 3 months Time, Sony Pictures solemnly announced its failure. This movie is too complicated and will inevitably exhaust the energy of director Marc Webb. Therefore, it is not surprising that he will be in charge of the director's tube again in 2017 and shoot a sketch like "Genius Girl". Weber is really tired, because "Girls Genius" was the first choice in Hollywood's "blacklist" scripts—the abbreviation of Hollywood's most popular scripts—but Mark Weber made this movie plain and flat. Not to see the ingenuity of "500 Days of Summer" or even "The Amazing Spider-Man".
from another angle, even if Captain America Chris is invited to help out, it will not help much. But without McKenna Grace, this movie would be even more unknown. Grace is to "Genius Girl" what Dakota Fanning is to "I Am Sam". Grace plays the role of a genius daughter with mathematical talent in this movie, but it is not the most difficult part for her to write on the blackboard the answers to mathematical problems that we do not understand. The difficulty is that Grace must be early and good at the same time. Understanding, being at the very center of the adult's complex world, but still able to sympathize with these adults who surround her in the name of love, and at the same time maintain the innocence of pranks.
Of course we knew she was acting, but when she said that uncle
said I shouldn’t correct older people because no one wants to be like a clever bastard
, everyone wants to rush into the big screen to embrace her; And when she was confused and irritated to pass the kindergarten teacher with her mental arithmetic, we didn't know whether to punish the little kid for being rude, or sigh in the same confusion.
Grace has almost become a dedicated girl household. She started acting at the age of 7 and has only been acting for 7 years, but she has appeared in 18 movies and 31 series; she has appeared in the Netflix series "The Invasion of Ghosts." Haunting of Hill House plays a sister with spiritual media qualities; Caroline’s childhood in the album "The Vampire Diaries"; Kirk temporarily becomes president in the album "Designated Survivor" in
Man, his daughter is played by Grace ── honestly, there is such a cute and cute daughter waiting for you to go home, no matter how unwilling to become president, you must work hard to survive without ruining the country!
Don’t forget, she is also the protagonist in "Ghostbuster: Afterlife".
Grace is now not only full of movies, she has also become Wen Ziren's team-she is the leading role in "Annabelle Comes Home" (Annabelle Comes Home), playing the role of catching ghosts.The daughter of the Warrens, the film's performance is not bad, and there are still nearly 250 million US dollars in the box office worldwide. Don't forget, there are no big stars in this movie, even the Warrens are just a glimpse. This kind of achievement is certainly not easy for child stars.
The ugly sweater in "Annabel 3: Homecoming" seems to be a bit more mature.
So, if we think about "The Last of Us", who would be the best actor to play Ellie? Grace, who is well-known, rich in performance experience, just the right age, and box office strength, is of course the perfect choice for many people. Don't forget, Chris, who has been paired with her in the "Genius Girl", has already previewed the bearded appearance on the screen. He and Grace are basically Joel and Ellie.
"Genius Girl" poster and "The Last of Us" fan picture.
, the designer BossLogic, who has drawn many fan imaginations, has drawn the imagination of "The Last of Us" based on Chris and Grace-this picture is directly modified from the "Genius Girl" poster. It seems that there is no sense of disobedience at all. The film company can save trouble. It seems that someone has helped to choose the role.
