Chloe Moretz



Born: February 10, 1997

Known For...Starring in kid-book-turned-movie adaptations like Diary of a Wimpy Kid and the upcoming Martin Scorsese-helmed Hugo Cabret. Upcoming is the title role in the adaptation of the much-loved graphic novel adaptation, Emily the Strange.

Kid Appeal: Feisty and fun, Chloe’s Moretz’s down-to-Earth demeanor keeps her relatable.

Parental Appeal: At 14, she’s that precocious kid in favorite movies, like (500) Days of Summer, Let Me In and Kick-Ass. Despite the more grown-up roles, “very Christian” teen keeps things clean in real life. "If I ever uttered one word that I said in [Kick-Ass], I would be grounded for years!” Moretz told MTV. “I'd be stuck in my room until I was 20! I'm an average, everyday girl; I have to go to bed at 9:30!"
