Chloe Grace Moretz is an American actress and model known for movies such

as ‘The Poker House,’ ‘Kick-Ass,’ and ‘If I Stay.’ Venturing into Hollywood as a
child actor, she proved her mettle quite early on with her role in the movie ‘The
Amityville Horror’ which led her to be nominated for a major award. Even
though she was just seven when she started acting, she earned much praise
for her acting skills and determination. She played a very challenging role in the
action film ‘Kick-Ass’ for which she trained hard for three months with Jackie
Chan's stunt crew. The young girl even insisted on performing her stunts
herself! After establishing herself as a child actor, she looked forward to do
more acting roles as a teenager. Unlike several other child stars whose careers
fizzle out as they reach their teens, Chloe went on to develop a successful
acting career as a young adult as well. She gained much appreciation for her
poignant role as Mia in the teen romantic drama ‘If I Stay’ in 2014. The actress
is also a well-known model and has modeled for publications such as ‘Vogue,’
‘Marie Claire,’ and ‘Elle.’
