In 2018, Mckenna Grace starred in a Lifetime remake of the classic horror film, “The Bad Seed.” The star played an evil young girl who may be responsible for the death of someone at her school. While promoting the film, she told Collider, “I’ve always wanted to play a horror movie bad guy.”
A few years later, Grace tried her hand behind the scenes and co-wrote the script to “The Bad Seed Returns,” a sequel that she also produced. She told Teen Vogue that she was eager to learn every aspect of the film business, explaining, “I plan on doing this until the day I die, and if I cannot continue in acting, then I would love to continue somewhere else in the creative industry, like directing, producing, writing, or SFX.”
In 2022, Lifetime delayed the release of the film following the tragedy in Ulvdale, TX, when a gunman killed 19 children and two adults. Grace, who grew up in Texas, announced the film’s postponement on Twitter. As part of a longer statement, she wrote, “I was in first grade when Sandy Hook happened … and it feels like not much has changed since then.” She added that she wanted everyone to encourage change in the nation’s gun laws to prevent future situations like this, advising her followers, “If you’re feeling helpless or like you want to do something but don’t know where to start, I found everytown.org to be really informational.”
