A fan has transformed Westworld star Evan Rachel Wood into the shapeshifting mutant from the X-Men known as Mystique.
Mystique has been a prominent character in the X-Men films. In the first trilogy, she was brought to life by actress Rebecca Romijn. And when the franchise was rebooted, Jennifer Lawrence took over the role and continue to play Mystique to this day. But now that the rights for all things X-Men belong to Disney, some think that the role may be recast to fit the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s ongoing narrative. One fan has a solid choice to take over the role in Westworld’s Evan Rachel Wood. You can check out the post below.
Evan Rachel Wood is a very talented actress and would be a very good choice to take on the character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. She plays an android on the hit HBO series and shows a vast range and ability to play multiple roles within one performance. Her character, Dolores, shows signs of kindness as well as expresses a very dark and sinister alter ego. That definitely seems like the criteria to play a shapeshifting mutant like Mystique. Until we learn about the X-Men’s future in the MCU ,fans will get to see Mystique, played by the also very talented Jennifer Lawrence, when X-Men: Dark Phoenix hits theaters next year.
Do you think Evan Rachel Wood would be a good choice for Mystique? Do you think they’ll recast the role for the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
Dark Phoenix is directed by Simon Kinberg and stars James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Tye Sheridan, Sophie Turner, Alexandra Shipp, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Evan Peters, and Jessica Chastain.
“In DARK PHOENIX, the X-MEN face their most formidable and powerful foe: one of their own, Jean Grey. During a rescue mission in space, Jean is nearly killed when she is hit by a mysterious cosmic force. Once she returns home, this force not only makes her infinitely more powerful, but far more unstable. Wrestling with this entity inside her, Jean unleashes her powers in ways she can neither comprehend nor contain. With Jean spiraling out of control, and hurting the ones she loves most, she begins to unravel the very fabric that holds the X-Men together. Now, with this family falling apart, they must find a way to unite — not only to save Jean’s soul, but to save our very planet from aliens who wish to weaponize this force and rule the galaxy.”
