The mother and daughter duo acted alongside each other in the upcoming Netflix film, The Wonder
Being a child star is no easy feat, especially when you’re acting alongside one of the biggest names in the industry at the moment,But for 13-year-old Kíla Lord Cassidy acting is a family affair. Both of her parents, Elaine Cassidy and Stephen Lord, are actors, and she tells us that she grew up with acting in her bones.
Before COVID, I was a real tomboy but the minute COVID hit I thought it might be fun to dress up but at that point, I couldn’t. So to be able to have these moments now is really fun!Most of my friends don’t even know that I’m here because I don’t like to brag about my career. I like to fly under the radar. But it’s so much fun because my family know about it and feels more personal when I get to share it with them and my closest friends.Most people don’t like it.
You’re obviously proud of all the movies that you’re in, but is this one especially special for you as you get to do it with Kíla?It’s great but it strangely just feels really normal. Every experience she’s had in this industry has always felt right and normal. It makes us realise that this is the right thing to be doing. I see her on the red carpet and then I’ll see her in the kitchen tomorrow.
