I would die! love her and her energy so much
AnnaSophia Robb or Lulu Wilson as teen jean would be cool...Is Amy Adams "too old" for Jean ? She's probably way done with franchises though

I hate to age shame but yes Amy Adams is too old for Jean. She was too old for Lois Lane (not talking about age per se but def. the appearance of age).
I like the idea of younger actors and actresses being cast so they can potentially do more movies before they age out. Sophie was good as Jean but i think we need a better actor to play her (no shade because I do like Turner and I was a big Game of Thrones fan).
Dakota Johnson, yikes and no.
I'm not sure who I would like to play Jean. We probably need a younger actress who is relatively new.
i'm starting to really like Jane Levy as like, a Jean that is still in her 20s or early 30s and figuring stuff out.
As for a teenage Jean, I'm honestly not super sure? There's like, Rachel Lillis or maybe Danielle Rose Russell with a dye job.

Abigail Cowen could be a good choice for an early 20s Jean
All I know is that whenever i see somebody as the top voted choice for a character on mycast.io I usually get set against them for the role.
Currently my old hard rules are 1) No GoT actors, and 2) No Stranger Things actors.
On re-read I appreciate XM:R a lot more Jean was presented as Morrison Jean, post modern inflection, loved her compassion but it may have gotten away from Taylor at several points. He had a fundamental understanding of the character and that's all I can ask for. Yet everything afterwards has been an unintentional "downgrade." I do have hope Hickman has plans for Galactus and Phoenix!
I agree. I hate when movies cast actors based on their current relevancy because it makes it impossible to buy them as the character they’re supposed to be portraying. I know the MCU usually goes for people with some celebrity status, but I kind of wish they would find some young, unknown actress to play Jean.
Deborah Ann Wohl is great! She is 35 years old, so she would make a really good mature Jean as well.
I love Jane Levy, but she is quite short. (Sorry.)
If they had made the X-Men movie in the early 90s, Mädchen Amick would have been a really great Jean.
In her late 40s she has gotten blond and somehow transformed into Emma Frost however. (If Morrison hadn’t retconned her age and made her younger.)
So maybe this means that Emma and Jean are two sides of the same coin ...?
ugh I know right . at least when the mcu casts big names they usually aren't just notable for the fad du jour
I love Madchen but idk if I'd ever be able to buy her as Jean . Maybe I just fried my brain from too many Peaks rewatches
I would looove her as Emma. I feel like there's too much of a push to cast Emma young/under thirty

Yeah...Abigail's got the look.
Jean, just about ready to let the dangerous side out:
Beautiful and terrifying, like our girl.

She's really pretty and looks the part enough but idk if she's a good actress.
