With the MCU’s X-Men reboot slated for May 5, 2028, fans are eager to see how breakout star Inde Navarrette will tackle Rogue’s famous Southern drawl. Navarrette revealed that she’s leaning into her own Texas roots and researching the distinct dialect of Mississippi to ensure she does the character justice.

Navarrette joins a stacked cast that includes Adam Driver as Mister Sinister, Maya Boyd as Storm, and Kit Connor as Cyclops. The film, directed by Jake Schreier, promises a fresh take on the mutant franchise when it hits theaters in 2028.
