Another X-Man has been cast, as director Bryan Singer revealed today that Lana Condor will play Jubilee in the upcoming film X-Men: Apocalypse.
In typical Singer fashion, Condor was introduced through the director's Instagram.
Condor joins an already robust cast that includes Alexandra Shipp (House of Anubis) as Storm, Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark in Game of Thrones) as Jean Grey, and Tye Sheridan (Mud) as play Cyclops. Last month, it was revealed that Austrlian actor Kodi Smit-McPhee will be playing Nightcrawler.
As for her character, Jubilee, a.k.a. Jubilation Lee, is a mutant with the power to generate pyrotechnic energy plasmoids from her hands. She was the X-Men's youngest member in the early '90s, and developed a father-daughter-like relationship with Wolverine.
A Wolverine tie-in with the film has yet to be mentioned officially, but Hugh Jackman — who has played the character in just about every major motion picture of late — is rumored to make a cameo. It'll be interesting to see how the two interact in X-Men: Apocalypse.
As for Condor's history, well, I see nothing on her IMDB page.
X-Men: Apocalypse is scheduled to hit theaters on May 27, 2016.
