“Big day for Mackenzie Foy . Hair, make-up, photos and then interview, since 8 am, she is the task. Not enough to frighten the beautiful, who is used to it. At 16, Mackenzie has been working since she was 3. Her first shoot was for Ralph Lauren . The class already. She only recalls a few snippets. ” I was really young ,” she says. But he remembers that the craft pleased him right away. This impression that ” you could do anything, become anyone ” … One click. Then she goes on and plunges into the world of the pub, then the cinema. Today, she shares the stage with Morgan Freeman , Keira Knightley and ballerina Misty Copeland for the adaptation of The Nutcracker by Disney . Mackenzie plays Clara , the little girl entrusted with the supervision of a nutcracker in the shape of a soldier. This one comes alive, confronts an evil mouse with heads and takes Clara in a world of animated dolls and characters in gingerbread. Love, magic and the spirit of Christmas . If Disney has a taste of consecration, Mackenzie is known in films with big budget and casting of stars. Before giving a reply to Morgan Freeman , she embodied in Interstellar Murphy Cooper , daughter of Joseph Cooper , courageous astronaut incarnated by Matthew McConaughey on an intergalactic journey to save mankind. She was also in Twilight , Chapters 4 and 5. And then TV shows like Hawaii 5-0 , indie films like Wish You Well …
In 2015, she lent her voice to the little girl from the animated film césarisé The Little Prince , a little girl who is prepared to be the perfect adult when she discovers the Little Prince’s curious and poetic adventure thanks to her aviator neighbor . And did she ever wish to have a childhood more simple and idle? ” I’m happy with everything I ‘ve done, ” she says, ” I think I had a normal childhood, I only traveled more than others. ”
Mackenzie is not the type to confess. His mother, present on the shooting, had warned us. The loves ? No time. Friends ? They are there, no mannequins or actresses, and apparently not really impressed to see their girlfriend shoot in Twilight with teen idol Kristen Stewart . ” They just say bravo and ‘Come on, we go out,’ ” says Mackenzie . We will not know much more. A restraint and a discipline that the girl may be due to her martial arts practice. When she is not on the shoot, she trains rigorously at taekwondo, seven nights a week. ” I like taking care of her body and head, ” she said. In 2014, to prove her talents, she made a wrench to Jimmy Fallon on the set of the Tonight Show . ” I think I hurt him a bit, ” she laughs. Concentrated, Mackenzie continues his way. Its new objective: realization. On the shootings, she asks for some advice: ” I see above all how they manage to draw my emotions, ” she said. The best advice: ” Bill Condon, the director of Twilight, told me that there was no need to cry to be sad, no need to scream to be angry. ” In five years, Mackenzie will be 21 . Where does she imagine herself? Shooting a movie, surely. Behind the camera maybe. Or ” with his cats, reading a book “. The day was a long one. ”
