Logan Dafne Keen as X-23

[0604854]

Hello Everyone,

I think it looks highly likeley we will get X-23 in Wolverine and therefore who would you guys like to play her?

My choice would be either Summer Galu (older actress choice) or Chloe Moretz (younger actress choice).

one of 2 actresses cast in mystery roles could be X-23.Plenty of roles in films are being reimaged for films.

Shuang Hu would be awesome. Hopefully not much older than what they're looking for

Geez, I hope this isn't X-23. Nobody wants another debate about timeline continuity when they try to quickly age a pre-teen X-Man for another movie.

So? We don't know when this is set, it might not be that far into the future of Xavier is still alive. If she is X-23, by the next X-Men movie or X-Force, she'll be a couple years older. Though, this is how old she was in the X-23 miniseries and a year or two younger than she was in the X-Men Evolution cartoon.

 

[Loki882]

Yeah she was like 13 or so when she first escaped the Facility. And the casting call was for an actress between 12-15 years old, so that's the right age range. And they might be going for the whole "her size and youthful appearance masks how dangerous/badass she really is."

And perhaps they'll be a passage of time and we'll see her get older. Point is, we don't know enough yet to make any firm judgments.

She's definitely too old for the part.

I have no real knowledge of the character, but with recent pictures I am really hoping X-23 is as young as she appears to be. That will be a great dynamic to explore with an aged Logan.

I know there are fears about her no longer being useful for potential future films like X-Force. Again, I think this could work out really well. Imagine a Hit-Girl type of character for her, and then all the interactions with Deadpool. Sounds great to me.

She's definitely too old for the part.

Also maybe get a professional actor for the role. The wrestler route isn't necessary.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

what if she really isn't that young, but just looks it (cause like Logan she doesn't age normally) but her anti-age kicked in earlier in her live then it did for him

so, she'll be like perpetual stuck in the body of a kid for most of her life, but will still be a badass, an very mature for her look

That's not a bad theory.

Oh and i am not so certain that they cast a young actress with X-Force in mind. That movie isn't a sure thing at all.

 

[Havok83]

what a misleading title. I think mods should change it

 

[GuestStar2004]

so, she'll be like perpetual stuck in the body of a kid for most of her life, but will still be a badass, an very mature for her look

Biggest problem with that theory is that kids grow up so no one kid would be able to play X-23 for the next few years as the same age

its just gonna have to be accepted this is likely a father/daughter thing happening here

 

[Spider-Fan83]

^in that scenario I would probably assume a grandfather/granddaughter dynamic over father/daughter

with the girl being x-23's daughter

 

[psylockolussus]

This thread needs more posts after that trailer. I am not gonna lie, I don't like X-23. So I am not jumping up and down for this but we shall see.

 

[Abudefduf]

Well, to be fair it's still unconfirmed whether the little girl is really playing X-23 or not. I mean, I think we can all agree that it's probably her, but you never know.

And wow, people on Tumblr have been really quick with the fanart.

Love the last one.

 

[Neno_Kos]

Same, last one also resembles the most to Dafne Keen

There is going to be a lot of pressure on Dafne, but I think she is really winning people over. t:

 

[Legion]

If she already has adamantium, does that mean she won't be able to grow?

 

[Nathan]

Only her claws are laced with Adamantium.

So they officially confirm X-23 on 10/23 hehe
