In case you’re not familiar with the character, Rogue is a southern girl who can absorb “memories, powers and physical traits” of other people. Her abilities make it difficult to form lasting relationships because depending on her level of control, she can’t touch other people.

The character was previously played by Oscar-winner Anna Paquin in the X-Men film franchise. The serious nature of the movies didn’t give the character an opportunity to show much personality. It was pretty much all “sad Rogue” all the time.

Let’s hope if we manifest this into reality, we can get a less dour, boring version of the character for Keke to portray.
