Dafne Keen, Logan star has disclosed that she is very eager to reprise her role as X-23 (Laura).
Though the fans of superheroes are still not knowing enough about the plans for the X-Men franchise. The acquisition of 20th century Fox by Disney will make it seem that characters will be joining the MCU in the near future.
Hugh Jackman has completed Wolverine after being 17 years in the role. Dafne Keen has said that she would be very happy to play X-23 once again if she gets the opportunity.
While talking to ComicBook, she was asked if she would play Laura again. She said, “Yes, definitely. 100 per cent.”
It appears that Jackman would be happy to see Keen on-screen as Laura again. He told comicbook.com, last year, that she was the one who was ideal for the role. He said, “When [director James Mangold] came up [with] the character of Laura, and that the movie was in essence about family we were worried about finding the right fit.”
Jackman was Punched By Keen
“Until we met [Keen]. The first day we auditioned her… she punched me in the arm so hard, I was literally bruised the next day. Hired,” Jackman said about Dafne Keen.
Though fans will not be seeing the Aussie star as Wolverine there will be reboots in the future. He said while speaking to Daily Beast in April, “I knew it was the right time for me to leave the party – not just for me, but for the character.”
“Somebody else will pick it up and run with it. It’s too good of a character not to. It’s kind of like, you’re on your way home and your friend rings you and goes, ‘Oh, dude, a new DJ just came on and the music is awesome, are you going to come back?’ And you say, ‘Sounds good but… no.’ They’re fine with someone else,” he further added while speaking to the same source.
Even in 2018, he had told Sunday Today With Willie Geist that “Wolverine will be back”. Someone will buy him. But, he will not buy it.
