In January 2016, Chloe Moretz was busy promoting her new movie, “The 5th Wave,” which was released to generally unfavorable reviews from critics on January 22, 2016, in the United States.
The then 18-year-old actress, who stars as Ohio high-schooler Cassie Sullivan, paid “Jimmy Kimmel Live” a visit to talk about her American science fiction action film.

Aside from promoting her new film, she also dished on The Little Mermaid and revealed that she “can’t really swim.”
“I can’t really swim! I mean, I can but I’m not a strong swimmer. Maybe that’s the new story: a mermaid who learns to swim!” she said.
“It shows people believe in yourself, unless you drown, in which case, it’s a terrible story. It wouldn’t be great for young girls,” joked Kimmel.
“I’m right in the process of starting [to prepare]. I have to learn how to swim with a tail. It’s been kind of crazy… It could potentially [be horrible]… I still have a few months to process it,” she added.
“It definitely was one of the most exciting things I’ve ever booked because it’s just something I grew up with,” the Diary of a Wimpy Kid actress revealed. “The Little Mermaid—we all kind of grew up with it, at least knowing it.”
