Long before she was sharing the screen with Zac Efron and Nicole Kidman in A Family Affair, Joey King was walking red carpets and rubbing elbows with A-listers as a young child star.

King's first major credit was in The Suite Life of Zack & Cody when she was just 7 years old. From there, she appeared on Entourage and Jericho before moving into voicework and even the 2011 video for Taylor Swift's "Mean."

As she adds another buzzy movie to her résumé — and relishes in newlywed life — look back on these adorable photos of King, now 24, in her early years of fame.
