Jacob Elordi may be trying to distance himself from his start on Netflix’s “Kissing Booth” franchise, but co-star Joey King has a different perspective.
King recently spoke to IndieWire about the challenges of her buzzy new project, “We Were the Lucky Ones,” and we also asked the actress about some of her most memorable roles from her past — and whether her thinking on them has changed at all over the years.
“Everyone’s different, of course, but I love viewing my career [as a] time capsule of what my life was like at the time,” she said. “And whether I’ve moved on to projects that are different, either more mature, [or] different genres, I love looking back at my earlier films [like] ‘The Kissing Booth.’”
“It’s really special to be able to be like, ‘Oh, this is where I was in life at this time,’” she continued. “Very rarely do people have a literal film or television show that captures a moment of their life that they were in, that will always be there. And I find that to be so special. ‘Kissing Booth’ was a really huge time for me, and I’ll always look at it very fondly. I think those movies, they’re fun, they know what they are. They’re meant to entertain, and I love looking at that particular time of my life and seeing those time capsules that remind me of who I was and what kind of projects I was doing at that time.”

Thinking about past projects as time capsules, the actress pointed to one of her earliest roles as another example. As any true Swiftie knows, King played an outcast elementary school kid in the music video for Taylor Swift‘s country hit “Mean.”
“I was in a Taylor Swift music video when I was 10-years old!,” she said. “How amazing is that? What 10-year-old girl … Taylor is not their hero!? Having that time capsule is so beautiful. And then having her ask me to come back [to appear in the music video for ‘I Can See You’] for the re-recording of ‘Speak Now’ was so special. I’m so grateful that that video exists now and that I have that marker of time. And Taylor continues to be an inspiration to me, and so many women, and I’m just so, so lucky to be part [of it].”
In her thankful era, we see.
“We Were the Lucky Ones” is now streaming on Hulu.
