The X-Men franchise is expanding in the MCU, and fans are eagerly anticipating the addition of new characters. Two names that have been consistently mentioned for the roles of Rogue and Storm are Cailee Spaeny and Jayme Lawson, respectively. While there is no concrete confirmation, Spaeny's popularity and recent success in blockbuster films make her a strong contender for the role of Rogue. Her versatility and talent, showcased in projects like 'Beef', 'Knives Out', and 'Alien: Romulus', align with Disney's recent casting choices. Additionally, her age (28) is not a significant factor, as she is in the same age range as other cast members like Sadie Sink and Samara Weaving. On the other hand, Lawson's portrayal of Pearline in 'Sinners' and her previous role as Bella Reál in 'The Penguin' and 'The Batman' have garnered attention from fans. Her acting ability and physical resemblance to the character make her a popular choice for Storm. However, the inclusion of Storm in the film is still uncertain, and the casting process is ongoing. The article concludes by mentioning the speculation surrounding the official X-Men cast reveal at D23 and encourages readers to follow the author on social media and purchase their sci-fi novels.
