Famke Janssen, the iconic Jean Grey, has some intriguing insights about the future of the MCU and her role in it. In a recent interview, she made it clear that she won't be appearing in the highly anticipated Avengers: Doomsday, a stance she's maintained for quite some time. But here's where it gets controversial: when asked about advice for future Jean Grey actors, Janssen surprisingly had none to offer. She believes the casting process has been impeccable, and that the actors who've taken on the role don't need any guidance from her.
"No, I'm excited to see who they choose next," Janssen said. "Sophie Turner was incredible, and I have no doubt the next actor will be too. The MCU has an incredible track record of casting, and I don't think anyone needs my tips. I'm eager to see who they cast."
While Janssen is firm on her absence from Avengers: Doomsday, the movie boasts an impressive lineup of stars. Major MCU favorites like Chris Hemsworth, Pedro Pascal, and Anthony Mackie are confirmed, along with new additions like Wyatt Russell and Tenoch Huerta. Even some X-Men characters, like Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen, are making a comeback.
Avengers: Doomsday is set to hit theaters on December 18, 2026, and with such an all-star cast, it's sure to be a blockbuster. But what do you think about Janssen's take on the future of Jean Grey?
