Taking on a Stephen King Classic: Moretz Reflects on Her Role
Chloë Grace Moretz admitted to ABC’s Nightline in October 2013 that she was intimidated by taking on the lead role in a Stephen King novel. While Stephen King wanted Lindsay Lohan to play the main role, Chloe was offered the role in March 2012.
“I was intimidated on taking on a Stephen King novel,” Moretz told ABC’s Nightline in October 2013.
“That’s what scared me … trying to take something that was one of his most iconic pieces of work that he’s ever written and try and breathe life, even halfway as good, as the words that he has put into a book.”

A Method Approach: Channeling the Dark Side of Carrie
“It was the first movie I ever did in which I wanted to try method [acting],” she added. “You know, trying to really breathe and live in her because she is such a dark character you can’t just cut and be like hee-hawing around.”
Principal photography for the film began on June 27, 2012, and wrapped in August of that same year. Born on February 10, 1997, in Atlanta, Georgia, Chloë Grace Moretz was 15 years old while filming the movie as the shy high school girl Carrie.

“I think it really is the emotional aspect of it,” she said. “It’s really what you read within Stephen King’s novel, you see that in our movie. You see the effects of the mother-daughter relationship more than just the teenagers.”
Chloë Grace Moretz was 16 when the American supernatural horror drama film premiered at Arclight Hollywood in Los Angeles on October 7, 2013.

Carrie’s Premiere: A Look Back at Moretz’s Red Carpet Moments
Chloe Grace Moretz has been on our fashion radar since she starred in the 2010 superhero film Kick-Ass and made a series of stunning red carpet appearances. However, like many A-listers, the Diary of a Wimpy Kid star has unfortunately also had her fair share of fashion misses.

In January 2016, the then-18-year-old actress suffered a rare red carpet failure as she arrived at the AwesomenessTV special fan screening of her new movie, The 5th Wave, at the Pacific Theater in Los Angeles.
It wasn’t Chloe’s worst look, but it wasn’t her best, either. The dress is from Marc Jacobs’s Spring 2016 collection. It features red and blue macramé lace, a décolletage-baring v-neckline, and feathered detailing on the left shoulder.

The playful dress has a strong vintage vibe, making her look slightly older. It also has a beaded midsection trim that looked unflattering on the young actress.

The “Hugo” star skipped the accessories and styled the look with a pair of glittery red heels by Miu Miu. She completed her look with a slick of red lipstick and a side-swept ponytail.

Chloë’s Miu Miu sandals were impossible to miss. The glittery red heels featured delicate ankle straps, open toes, and a striking four-inch height, adding a bold and glamorous touch to her ensemble.
