Joey King Says 'The Princess' Stunt Training Was One of the Hardest Things She Put Her Body Through

Joey King is opening up about the stunt training for her new movie The Princess.

The 22-year-old actress stars in the new Hulu film as a beautiful, strong-willed princess who refuses to wed the cruel sociopath to whom she is betrothed, and is kidnapped and locked in a remote tower of her father’s castle. With her scorned, vindictive suitor intent on taking her father’s throne, the princess must protect her family and save the kingdom.

“It was really, really, really difficult,” she said on Good Morning America. “It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever put my body through or done in my life, but also I understand how people become addicted to it.”

“I felt so invigorated by it and excited to go to work every day and fight. It was amazing,” Joey added. “I really, really miss it because I kind of fell in love with martial arts and learning how to move my body that way, and fight. I’m just hoping that I get to be in another action movie soon that requires me to do the same thing.”

The Princess is now streaming on Hulu.
