She may only be 14-years-old and a relative newcomer when it comes to acting, but Chloe Moretz was excited to find herself mixing with royalty tonight.
The young American actress looked delighted as she shook hands with Prince Charles and his wife the Duchess of Cornwall at the London premiere of her new movie Hugo.
Chloe wore a sophisticated long sleeved black Pucci lace dress as she greeted Charles and Camilla for the Royal Film performance at the Odeon cinema in Leicester Square.

And the Kick Ass star looked a lot older than her 14-years as she confidently posed for photographers on the red carpet before meeting the prince.
She wore her hair in a loose updo, minimal make-up and black open toe shoes with a quirky white heel as she arrived to promote the film, which is directed by Martin Scorsese.
And she certainly seemed to enjoy her chance to mingle with royalty, later tweeting: 'Such a great night! In bed now! Night night! Early morning!'

Prince Charles arrived looking smart in a black suit, while Camilla wore a sparkling long sleeved number with silver shoes.
Charles also met the rest of the cast, along with director Scorsese, with the pair having an animated conversation.
Other cast members at the event included Harry Potter star Helen McCrory and Sir Ben Kingsley who was also spotted in conversation with the heir to the British throne.
McCrory arrived with her actor husband Damian Lewis, who currently stars in U.S. Showtime drama Homeland alongside Claire Danes

And the family film premiere also attracted Rod Stewart, wife Penny and their six-year-old son Alistair.
The youngster, who closely resembles his famous father, wore a warm jacket over his suit, while mother Penny stood out in a fuchsia pink coat.
Hugo, which can currently be seen in movie theatres around the U.S, sees Chloe play Isabel, a young friend of the titular main character, played by English actor Asa Butterfield, 14.

The youngster is an an orphan living a secret life in the walls of a Paris train station in the early 1930s, and he must repair a damaged automaton toy to discover a message from his dead father, who is played by Jude Law.
Much of the action takes place in the station, and Chloe said she could not believe the scale of the set that was made to bring it to life for the $170m budgeted flick.
She said: 'It was a full-scale train station. It was built in two studios placed side by side, which made it gigantic.

'And they built, to scale, an actual train station,' she added. 'It truly was one of the most magnificent things I’d ever seen. I walked in and saw it for the first time and thought, “It’s really happening.” It was beautiful.'
The premiere is the principal fundraising event of the Cinema and Television Benevolent Fund, the trade charity for the UK film and television industries.
Founded in 1924, the organisation offers practical and financial help to more than 1,000 people and their families every year who have been affected by illness, bereavement, accident or unemployment.
Departure: The 3D movie is a departure from Scorcese's usual gritty work but is already being praised by critics
