Inde Navarrette Teases X-Men Role, Says She's 'Doing Everything Humanly Possible' to Do Rogue Justice

Inde Navarrette, who has been cast as Rogue in the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe X-Men reboot, is reportedly putting in all her efforts to bring the character to life. The actress, who was selected for the role earlier this year, spoke to the LA Times about her commitment to the character. Navarrette emphasized that she is doing everything humanly possible, expressing her love for the character and her desire to do justice to it for herself, the director Jake Schrieier, and the fans.

She has been working hard to understand Rogue's history and nuances, both in comic books and through various adaptations.

Having previously appeared in TV shows like 13 Reasons Why and Superman & Lois, Navarrette's breakthrough came through her role in the low-budget horror film Obsession, which helped her gain wider recognition. The opportunity to play Rogue in the MCU X-Men movie was a significant step in her career, and she opted to take on the role after considering the numerous Oscar buzz and declined offers.

Playing a character with decades of comic book history, such as Rogue, means stepping into a world already filled with memorable portrayals, including Anna Paquin's performances in the 2000 X-Men film and X2: X-Men United.
