For over a decade, Rogue got sidelined despite being one of the X-Men’s most iconic characters. That changes now — Disney’s *X-Men* reboot has officially cast Inde Navarrette as Rogue, giving the mutant a real chance to shine after years of being pushed to the background under 20th Century Fox.

## What Was Announced?

At D23, Marvel Studios confirmed Inde Navarrette will play Anna Marie, aka Rogue, in Jake Schreier’s upcoming *X-Men* film — a surprise pick for many fans who expected Cailee Spaeny to land the role. Navarrette, known for her range in the recent horror hit *Obsession*, joins a growing ensemble cast as Marvel’s mutant saga continues to take shape.

## Why This Casting Matters

Under Fox, Rogue was central to the original *X-Men* trilogy but was gradually pushed aside, most notably when her pivotal rescue scenes in *X-Men: Days of Future Past* were cut from the theatrical release over pacing concerns, only restored later in *The Rogue Cut*. Fox never found a lasting role for her after the franchise’s soft reboot, effectively benching one of its most compelling characters. With Marvel Studios now controlling the rights, Rogue has a real opportunity for a stronger arc, potentially including her classic comic storyline of absorbing Captain Marvel’s powers, an upgrade already popularized by *X-Men: The Animated Series* and its revival, *X-Men ’97*.
