As <u>revealed<\/u> last month, it&#8217;s due out May 5, 2028, but even more than Rogue&#8217;s power-stealing abilities and fierce attitude, fans have been dying to know if Navarrette will bring any spice to Rogue&#8217;s voice.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The character is known for her southern draw, especially thanks to <u>the delivery made popular by original X-Men animated series voice actress Lenore Zann<\/u>. Navarrette may not have the natural accent audiences would expect from Rogue, but she told Entertainment Tonight that the mutant team member&#8217;s voice is very much already on her mind.<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-313219616\"><img alt=\"null\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image article-image article-image-full-size jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><figcaption data-cy=\"caption\" class=\"caption jsx-1762799490 jsx-479945570 article-image-caption\">Inde Navarrette.

I grew up in Texas for a good majority of my life,&#8221; Navarrette said when asked how she&#8217;ll build Rogue&#8217;s voice. &#8220;So, honestly, those Southern women are really my favorite.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Navarrette then noted her specific connection to Corpus Christi, a coastal town located toward the south end of Texas. For the Obsession actress-turned-Marvel superhero, it&#8217;s the &#8220;old Southern women&#8221; that she &#8220;really, really loves.&#8221; But her appreciation for the South doesn&#8217;t stop there.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;But, specifically, Mississippi \u2013 Rogue is from Mississippi,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;So, I really just want to go there.

Also confirmed for the big MCU X-Men reboot movie are Adam Driver as Mister Sinister, Maya Boyd as Storm, Christopher Abbott as Professor X, Sadie Sink as Jean Grey, Kit Connor as Cyclops, and Samara Weaving as Emma Frost. Gen V and Scream 7 star Asa Germann was also <u>recently picked to play the winged mutant, Angel<\/u>.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">So many other pieces need to come together before X-Men arrives, but director Jake Schreier has teased a team-up movie worth waiting for. In August, he <u>talked about some of the comic books he&#8217;s looking to for inspiration<\/u>, promising to give MCU fans a movie that is a &#8220;new spin&#8221; on what they&#8217;ve seen with past live-action X-Men films. Meanwhile, Navarrette is reportedly so excited to do the movie that <u>she passed up a part in Heat 2<\/u>.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em>Photo by Frazer Harrison\/Getty Images.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"author-sign-off\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"author-sign-off\" data-cy=\"author-sign-off\"><span class=\"stack jsx-59817748 jsx-1927875859\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"rounded jsx-444076027 jsx-4218469134 profile-thumb jsx-2141281959 aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-1-1\"><img alt=\"Michael Cripe Avatar\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image profile-thumb-img jsx-249361588 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/avatars\/5205bf6a08586a205a834928\/Michael_blue_red_2-1700460435246.png?crop=1%3A1&amp;width=56&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/avatars\/5205bf6a08586a205a834928\/Michael_blue_red_2-1700460435246.png?crop=1%3A1&amp;width=56&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"stack jsx-2509706801 jsx-3630940851\"><span class=\"stack jsx-2959124702 jsx-702910195 author-sign-off-header\"><\/p>\n<p>Michael Cripe<\/p>\n<p>Freelance Writer<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"stack jsx-2509706801 jsx-1220387432\"\/><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"interface jsx-1132626198 sign-off-text\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Michael Cripe is a freelance writer with IGN.
