One of the brightest young stars in Hollywood is Zoey Deutch. As the daughter of actress Lea Thompson and director Howard Deutch, the industry is in her blood, so it shouldn’t be surprising that she’s immensely talented. Lately, she has also been popping up all over the place.
Even from her first acting credit in 2010, Deutch could steal scenes wherever she appeared. Over the years, her star has continued to rise, and she has only gotten better in every role she has nabbed, including some leading ones. Deutch is usually involved in something good, whether TV shows or movies.
