However, the 24-year-old does not have a direct clue about all the casting choices happening behind the cameras. “It’s a little bit separate. So I’m finding out through Jake,” she said during an interview with Vanity Fair, referring to director Jake Schreier.“There’s also so many online rumours, but it’s coming together. I think the timing of it’s so exciting, and the way they planned it out is really clever, just with introducing one of the mutants, a very important mutant, through Spider-Man. I think a great cast is coming together, and I think people are going to be really excited about it when it’s all announced,” she added.
