Many believe that the actress and the beloved X-Men character share the same personality which makes Palmer a no-brainer choice for the part.Speaking with ComicBook, the Nope star was asked whether or not she’s already gotten that career-making call from Marvel Studios. The 29-year-old actress recently expressed her desire to play Rogue in the billion-dollar franchise but according to her, the studio has yet to reach out to her and even if they did, she’d be sworn to secrecy.Palmer jokingly responded: “That’s confidential, sugar. No, I’m kidding. I don’t know. I just know that the fans, the way that the fans have me booked, honey, online, I got to do a gig every week. So if we’re adding Marvel to it, hey, let’s do it. I’m ready for Rogue.“Also Read: Keke Palmer Speaks Up About Marvel Fans Casting Her As X-Men’s RogueOf course, not everyone is sold on the idea of Keke becoming Rogue simply because the character is traditionally caucasian in various X-Men media.
