Joey made her television debut in 2006 with ‘The Suite Life of Zack & Cody,’ and her big screen debut the following year with ‘Reign over Me.’
She then appeared in the 2010 comedy film ‘Ramona and Beezus,’ playing the titular character of ‘Ramona Quimby,’ and has since appeared in a slew of other films and TV shows, cementing her reputation as a talented young actress.

Career Journey
Joey King made her acting debut in 2006 with a small two-episode role in the popular ‘Disney’ sitcom ‘The Suite Life of Zack & Cody.’ It was one of the most popular ‘Disney’ shows at the time and proved to be a great platform for her to showcase her talent, despite the fact that she was only seven years old at the time.

In 2010, she landed her first lead role in the comedy-drama film ‘Ramona and Beezus,’ playing the titular character of ‘Ramona Quimby,’ the younger sister of ‘Beezus Quimby,’ played by Selena Gomez.
