Chris Evans praised Mckenna's emotional performance saying,

“Precocious child actors can be annoying especially when they’re playing kids brilliant beyond their years, but Mckenna Grace, with appraising eyes, her top front teeth missing, and a sugary but brisk delivery that is never less than spontaneous, is like the Drew Barrymore of “E.T.” on speed-dial. When Mary Gripes that children her age bore her, it isn’t just haughty code for how smart she is; you really feel her alienation-her sadness at being a girl apart.”

She also starred in Miramax’s Margot Robbie lead drama, I, Tonya in 2018, where she portrayed the role of Tonya Harding.

How does Mckenna Grace Earn Her Net Worth?

When it comes to getting paid as an actor, age is just a number.  Pay is primarily related to box-office draw. However, a child actor is limited to a certain number of hours. Their earnings are well protected from parents or managers who might take their advantage because of the Coogan law -which requires the earnings go to a protected account.

That aside, the more famous you are the more you get paid regardless of age. Having starred alongside Avenger’s Chris Evans, in a well-received movie as well as starring alongside Margot Robbie, she probably boasts her net worth in thousands.
