The film Logan has been considered by many as one of the best superhero films ever made. It starred Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart making their last appearances as Wolverine and Professor x. It also made a breakout star of Dafne Keen as X-23. Since Disney took over Fox, the addition of the X-Men seems a foregone conclusion. It’s just a matter of when. As for Miss Keen, she would love an opportunity to play X-23 again and has fond memories of her time with Jackman and Stewart.
She expressed this in a recent interview with Comicbook.Com. When asked if she would be willing to take on the role for Marvel.
Yes, definitely. 100 percent.
As to her experience with the two mega stars…
I guess that Hugh and Patrick really formed me as an actress. Just watching them on camera was amazing. They made me feel really comfortable on set. I had an amazing time, it never felt like working. I never wanted to leave set. They taught me so much, honestly, just… I don’t even know what they taught me. It was so intensive that just watching them, I soaked everything the did up like a sponge. This doesn’t have to do with acting, but I remember seeing how humble Hugh was with everyone really made me think, ‘If I ever become famous or whatever I don’t want it to get to my head and I want to be as humble and as grounded as Hugh.’
No doubt as a young actress you could do no better than to have Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman as your mentors. Would you like to see X-23 reappear in a MCU film? Share your hopes for her and the X-Men with us at GeekVibesNation.
