Our entire cast is phenomenal, and I\u2019m really proud of the fact that our entire cast is also Jewish,\u201d Georgia explained. \u201cAnd I think because of that, they related on very personal ways to their characters. Halina and Addy, they each have their own stories that relate to the Holocaust and their own family histories, and I was so excited for them to bring that personal connection to their roles. \u2026 I can\u2019t speak highly enough of Joey and our entire cast.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-4\">The miniseries <em>We Were the Lucky Ones<\/em> was loosely inspired by the real story of Georgia\u2019s family from the 1930s.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe title=\"We Were the Lucky Ones | Official Trailer | Hulu\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hOOn7Wb8sNw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-5\">Joey and Logan\u2019s characters, Halina and Addy, respectively, are members of the Kurc family: a Polish Jewish family who were initially protected by their successful livelihood from the severe antisemitism that swept through Europe during World War II. Amid Hitler\u2019s cruel regime, some of the Kurcs go into hiding while others are thrown into concentration camps. After the family gets separated by the war, only a few manage to escape, and they attempt to find any living relatives.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-6\">Director <strong>Thomas Kail<\/strong> also emphasized the caliber and level of wisdom that both Joey, 24, and Logan, 32, brought to the set during his exclusive interview with Hollywood Life.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-7\">\u201cJoey really responded to the material very early on and was the first person to say that she wanted to join,\u201d Thomas pointed out. \u201cAnd she and Logan knew each other just from around having both being doing this for a long time. And they worked together briefly. There was a fundamental understanding that they had about each other that felt already like a very legitimate bond.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-8\">Thomas added that the<a href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/2023\/12\/04\/joey-king-responds-to-jacob-elordis-the-kissing-booth-comments\/\" data-analytics-trigger=\"article-body-link\"><em> Kissing Booth<\/em> actress<\/a> and the <em>Percy Jackson &amp; the Olympians<\/em> actor\u2019s \u201cdeep expertise and excellence in their craft\u201d could be felt any time when they walked into a room or onto the set.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-9\">\u201cThey\u2019re just sky-high level talent,\u201d he added. \u201cThey\u2019ve also had a ton of experience.
