Joey King Is Set to Star Alongside Brad Pitt in New Action-Adventure Movie ‘Bullet Train’
Sony Picture’s upcoming movie, Bullet Train, based on the Japanese novel Maria Beetle, is set to star Joey King and Brad Pitt.
King will be showcasing her acting talent in this action-thriller movie, which will be her most heavy-action role to be cast in so far in her career. Sony is keeping the majority of the details under wraps, but it will be directed by David Leitch and the script is written by Zak Olkewicz. There is also no set date for production yet.
So far we know King will play a teenage assassin and is the only woman out of the four main leads. She will work alongside Hollywood legend, Brad Pitt, and we can only imagine what other famous actors will fill the remaining roles.
King shared her great news in her Instagram post shown below.

King has shown us what she is capable of, playing stellar roles as Elle Evans in The Kissing Booth movie series and Gypsy Blanchard in The Act. The Kissing Booth is a major hit on Netflix and the movie series has already announced a third installment will be released to us in 2021. King received an Emmy nomination for outstanding lead actress in a limited series or movie for the Hulu miniseries The Act in 2019.

King has been a remarkable actress since she was young, playing Selena Gomez’s little sister in the comedy Ramona and Beezus. We are so happy for her and all she has accomplished throughout the years.
Hi! I am Hannah Forton pursuing a double major in Communications and Music Industry. I love traveling, sports, cooking, music, Broadway, movies, DIY, make-up, clothes, and tutorials. Some of my favorite work experiences includes an internship at a recording studio and working at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Helping and educating others is important to me, and I’ve enjoyed being able to do so through volunteering for numerous non-profits since middle school. I like the big city vibes, but small towns will always hold a special place in my heart. Living near Detroit allows me to achieve the best of both worlds.
