Rogue actress Lenore Zann shares her dream role in the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe reboot of X-Men as she shares her thoughts on who will play the heroine in live-action.

Screen Rant recently interviewed Rogue herself as Zann chatted about returning to the franchise with X-Men ’97 season 1. During the interview, Zann shared her thoughts on Marvel Studios’ X-Men reboot, including if she would like to appear in the film. Not only is Zann game to join the MCU, but she has the perfect X-Men role in mind, sharing the following:

Lenore Zann: I’d love to! I’ve always said I’d love to play Rogue’s mother, like her original mother, because when you look at the cartoon, comics, the drawings of her, she looks a lot like me, actually! [laughs] She looks like a 70s hippie mother with long blonde hair, [with] golden skin and green hazel eyes. So I was thinking, ‘Wow, that would be really fun.’ But who knows where they’re gonna go with the scripts, but that would be a blast.

Zann was also asked if she has any advice to share for whoever will play Rogue in the new reimagination of the X-Men. Zann would love, more than anything, to at least meet the future X-Men star and have a conversation about Rogue, adding the following:

Lenore Zann: Whoever gets chosen, I’d love to meet with them and have a coffee and we could chat about Rogue and what makes her tick. What are her foibles? What’s her Achilles heel? I think every actor brings their own talents, passions, and experience to each role. So I wouldn’t want to tell them what to do, but I would want to have a conversation with them, if that’s possible, discuss it and brainstorm, and I think that would be a lot of fun.
