Samara Weaving has been chosen to play Emma Frost in Marvel Studios’ upcoming X-Men movie, according to Deadline. Director Jake Schreier and Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige reportedly settled on Weaving earlier this week following an extensive casting process that saw multiple actors considered and tested for the part. Marvel has not officially commented on the report.
The studio has been taking its time with the franchise ever since Disney acquired 20th Century Fox in 2019, despite the mutants remaining among the biggest characters Marvel has yet to properly unleash in its shared universe, but now they're in a position to begin casting some of the brand's most iconic characters.
Weaving apparently won the role with an audition that proved “too hard to beat,” with Emma said to have been the subject of one of the movie’s most exhaustive casting searches.
