Dafne Keen has confirmed what we all suspected from herDeadpool and Wolverinecameo: the Void’s X-23isfrom Logan – and that’s not the only interesting tidbit The Acolyte actor revealed during a new interview withComicBook’s Phase Zero podcast.
“[Marvel Studios] had an answer for anything,” Keen said on originally intending to approach the reprisal of her role with a barrage of questions. “[Laura] is not a variant. [She] went along with the kids for a few years and got zapped. She’s been in [The Void] for a few years now.”
Keen added, “[Laura] lost her accent because [she] has been in America for a while now… she’s a very intelligent kid.”
Marvel, it seems, have mapped out more of X-23’s character arc fromLogan, which saw Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine escort his ‘daughter’ before eventually succumbing to his wounds after fighting a clone of himself.
