While new to the Deadpool films, Wolverine’s surrogate daughter, Laura, AKA X-23, last appeared in Logan (2017). Keen shared that she would love to reprise Laura for the rest of her life, saying, “She’s the most incredible character to play…and I have so much love for her” (perMoviefone). However, she did feel some trepidation trying to live up to portraying Wolverine’s daughter (perTooFab).Producers went to great lengths to keep the movie’s plot secret. Keen revealed that she was sent the script but said all the names had been changed. Even Keen had difficulty deciphering who was who until they started filming.Since her breakout role as Laura in Logan, Keen most notably portrayed Lyra Belacqua/Silvertongue in His Dark Materials (2019-2022), earning her a BAFTA (Wales) Best Actress nomination.
