X-Men Star Inde Navarrette Teases Her Plan to Nail Rogue’s Southern Accent

Actress Inde Navarrette plans to perfect Rogue's Southern accent for her upcoming role in the new X-Men film. The movie, set for release in 2028, will see Navarrette transition from horror movies to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Known for her distinctive Southern draw, Rogue has previously been voiced by Lenore Zann in the animated series.

While Navarrette admits she may not have the natural accent, she is determined to capture Rogue's voice. Raised in Texas for most of her life, Navarrette has a deep appreciation for Southern women, particularly those from Mississippi where Rogue originates. She expressed her excitement about the role, mentioning that she had to turn down a part in Heat 2 to take on this significant character.

Navarrette is part of an array of talent confirmed for the MCU X-Men reboot, which also features Adam Driver, Maya Boyd, Christopher Abbott, Sadie Sink, Kit Connor, Samara Weaving, and Asa Germann. Director Jake Schreier has teased a fresh take on the franchise, promising a movie that redefines the past live-action X-Men films.
