Now 19, she was only 11 when she accompanied Hugh Jackman In Logan. “I had a good time keeping it a secret. Especially since I’ve done a lot of interviews recently for The Acolyte. And I was asked about it in every interview. So I lied a lot.“, says today Dafne Keen in Entertainment Weekly, which hoped to return earlier in the saga X-Men. “I was told at the time that there was a script being developed for an X-23 movie. But I’m not sure if it’s true because I was 11 years old…”
X-23 will indeed return, this time, in Deadpool & Wolverine. So has it changed since then? Logan ? In Deadpool 3Laura is now older and wiser. Above all, she will have a better understanding of Wolverine: “It was wonderful to come back to that and explore that as an adult. Almost as a parent. I think Laura, in Logan, struggled with accepting her father and then losing her father. We find her now appreciating that kind of connection. She has this wisdom to her. She knows how much her father means to her.”
Deadpool & Wolverine will be released in theaters in France on July 24.
