Rising Star

By the time she was twelve years old in 2009, Moretz had become a familiar face at movie theaters and had been in nine feature films along with her work in television movies and shows. She was not yet a household name, but she soon would be. In 2009, she had a supporting role alongside Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the romantic dramedy "500 Days of Summer," which was a hit among critics and moviegoers. It was a huge commercial success, grossing over $60 million against a budget of just $7.5 million. She starred in the family adventure film "Jack and the Beanstalk" that same year.

Chloë's big break came with the 2010 dark comedy action film "Kick-Ass," which also starred Nicolas Cage, Aaron Johnson, and Christopher Mintz-Plasse. She played the role of an 11-year-old vigilante named Hit-Girl, and there was controversy around her being 12 in real life and delivering profanity-laden lines. However, Moretz stated in interviews that she would have been grounded if she were to say those words at home and referred to the film as "Kick-butt" instead. Certain critics pointed out that her character kills numerous people during the film, which is considered by many to be a worse moral offense than foul language. The film was successful among critics and at the box office, grossing over $96 million against a budget of $30 million. For her performance, Chloë was nominated for a Young Artist Award, a Teen Choice Award, a Critics Choice Award, and an MTV Movie Award. She won two MTV Movie Awards, an IGN Award, and an Empire Award. She reprised her role for the equally successful 2013 sequel "Kick-Ass 2," and she starred in a remake of the 1979 horror classic "Carrie" that same year. In 2014, she played the lead character in the teen romantic drama "If I Stay," which was panned by critics but relatively successful at the box office.
