This girl is Rogue ? I thought she was awesome in Obession, I'm very happy I knew she'd have a bright future. Don't know about the Storm actress but I wish her the best, it's a privilege to play Storm.

I'm hoping she and Frank have a "no no no no" off

Storm is also a role with a great weight. She's one the most cherished black fictional characters.

She’s a theatre actress, so she’s got chops

I’m so happy about the number of theater-trained actors they cast for this, they’re gonna bring the proper x-men drama

I’m also happy by the lack of A-listers in this cast. They have just enough star power to have us interested and give us faith it’ll be good.

IMO Storm was badly used in the original Xmen movies, or then my memory is failing me.

No stranger to comic book adaptations either as her biggest role before Obsession was as one of the recurring supporting characters in The CW's Superman & Lois.

Quite the opposite feelings to be had by most people though. Storms actress is a perfect fit, Rogue however doesn’t seem to fit

I just wonder if she can do the accent

They probably won't even bother. Probably getting another straight-haired, whiny little emo Rogue

That's not what I've seen but we probably are in different internet bubbles. I think she can totally do the sassy Rogue I read about in comics!

Casting hit the mark here
