Dafne Keen Joins the Club of Marvel Actors Who’ve Kept their Roles Secret

Date:

Key Takeaways:
– 19-year-old actress Dafne Keen has hidden her casting in the upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine.
– Many other Marvel actors, like Brie Larson, Paul Rudd, and Benedict Cumberbatch, also previously lied about their casting to keep things secret.
– Non-disclosure agreements often prevent actors from revealing their roles.
– The final Deadpool & Wolverine trailer confirms Keen’s role reprising as X-23, the child of Wolverine.

Lying for the Love of Marvel

Being in a Marvel movie is a dream for many actors. It offers a chance to become a part of popular culture and to be remembered for years. But often, our favorite stars have to keep their roles a secret until official announcements are made. 19-year-old Spanish actress Dafne Keen joins the club of such Marvel actors, who lied about their casting.

Keen on Keeping the Secret

Dafne Keen is set to appear in the highly anticipated film Deadpool & Wolverine, reprising her much-loved role as X-23, the child of Wolverine. These actors, like Dafne, know how to build suspense! Throughout her promotional tour for her Star Wars series, The Acolyte, Dafne clearly stated that she was not going to be part of the Ryan Reynolds movie. She even said she’d be watching it as a fan! Now, that’s a twist.

“Dafne Keen’s Great Marvel Cover-up”

Despite all denials, the final trailer came out with Keen featuring as Laura, confirming that she had been hiding the big truth all this while. She even went on to share how fun it was to keep the secret, pointing to Andrew Garfield as her inspiration, who famously denied appearing in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Not the Only Marvel Secret Keeper

Just like Dafne, many other Marvel actors have played the same game of denying their roles. Remember when Paul Rudd was quizzed about playing Scott Lang in Ant-Man? He led fans on a wild goose chase by dismissing it all as rumors. It was a surprise when his role was later confirmed.

Likewise, Benedict Cumberbatch had also denied being part of Doctor Strange during a Comic-Con panel. Everyone believed him until he magically appeared as the Sorcerer Supreme.

More Marvel Mystery Makers

Brie Larson gave a similar surprise when she was confirmed to play Captain Marvel, just a month after denying it. Other stars who kept us in suspense include She-Hulk’s Tatiana Maslany, Hailee Steinfeld, and Jonathan Majors. These actors have lied, but the reason might be the non-disclosure agreements, which impact the actors’ ability to make official comments.

Keeping it Hush, Makes Marvel Big

Part of the thrill of Marvel movies is this secret-keeping. It helps build anticipation and keeps fans guessing. It’s not just the actors who can keep secrets but Marvel studios’ ability to keep things under wraps adds to the allure. Our favorite actors aren’t the first and certainly won’t be the last to hide their Marvel roles, and it’s all for our entertainment.

So, mark your calendars! Deadpool & Wolverine, with Dafne Keen playing her part, hits the theaters on July 26, 2024. It seems we are all in for a thrilling ride!
