Joey King and Logan Lerman have always been truth-tellers. Veracity comes with the enterprise of being an actor, after all – and with a combined four decades of screen acting experience between these Young Hollywood A-listers, it’s proven to suit them just fine.
It was their shared instinct to run toward the truth – even when difficult and dark – that drew King and Lerman to their latest starring roles in Hulu’s Holocaust drama “We Were the Lucky Ones.”
Based on Georgia Hunter’s 2017 book of the same name, which documents her family’s fight for survival and unity as the Nazi persecution of Jews took hold of Poland during World War II, the Erica Lipez-created, eight-episode limited series charts the Kurc family’s unbelievable true story.
