Joey King Heads Back to TV for Another Limited Series!
Joey King is hot off her first Emmy nomination and she just landed her next project!
The 20-year-old actress will star in the upcoming adaptation of Jodi Picoult‘s novel “A Spark of Light,” which will be turned into a television limited series. Joey will also be an executive producer on the show.
You might know Jodi for her other best-selling books like “My Sister’s Keeper” and “The Pact.”
In A Spark of Light, “what appears to be another day of service to women at a women’s reproductive health services clinic, becomes tragic as a desperate and distraught gunman bursts in and opens fire, taking all inside hostage,” according to Deadline.
Here is the full synopsis: “Hugh McElroy, a police hostage negotiator, arrives at the scene just as gets a text that his fifteen-year-old daughter, Wren (King), is inside the clinic. She is joined there by a nurse, a wounded woman, a doctor, a pro-life protester-tuned-patient, a young woman who has come to terminate her pregnancy, as well as the disturbed gunman himself, vowing to be heard.”
