\n\tRebecca Romijn<\/a> is sharing an update on her return as Mystique in the highly-anticipated Avengers: Doomsday<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tAt The Hollywood Reporter\u2019s San Diego Comic-Con<\/a> suite, the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds<\/a> star admitted that she wasn\u2019t sure if she\u2019s finished filming for the forthcoming Marvel<\/a> film because the script isn\u2019t fully complete.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201c[I\u2019m] not quite sure,\u201d she said when asked if she was done shooting her scenes. \u201cThe script hasn\u2019t \u2014 they haven\u2019t finished writing it. It\u2019s been very, very fun, and we don\u2019t know yet. They keep everything very close to the vest themselves in an effort to keep everything under wraps.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tRomijn kept her lips sealed when asked if she\u2019s read the entire script, noting, \u201cI cannot confirm nor deny that I have read the entire script.\u201d She also admitted she \u201ccan\u2019t say\u201d who she\u2019s filmed scenes alongside, but it was a \u201csurreal\u201d experience shooting with some of her original X-Men<\/a> co-stars with a new, blended cast.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt was very surreal to be with my old cast as well as a new cast. I had crazy dreams while I was there for a large chunk of shooting. Like, really kind of regressive dreams,\u201d she shared. \u201cIt was very strange, my brain was really trying to organize. Like, wow, this is a character I played 25 years ago, 20 years ago. Yeah, [it was] very surreal.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe actress also shared what it was like revisiting the role of Mystique after nearly 20 years since she last portrayed the character in 2006\u2019s X-Men: The Last Stand. (Romijn made a brief cameo in 2011\u2019s X-Men: First Class<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cOh, I know her very well. I went back in with full ownership of her. It was very nice to go back and play that character, \u2018cause I had imposter syndrome in the very beginning,\u201d she said. \u201cI thought, maybe at the very beginning, I was just cast because I happened to be the model who was available to play Mystique at that moment. I mean, I auditioned and I got the role, because when you\u2019re very young, you\u2019re like, Do I deserve to be here? And I did not have that going back this time. It was a very different experience.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tMarvel revealed the Avengers: Doomsday cast<\/a> in late March, which notably includes a string of actors from 20th Century Fox\u2019s X-Men universe<\/a>. Joining Romijn from the inaugural 2000 film include Patrick Stewart as Professor X, Ian McKellen as Magneto and James Marsden as Cyclops. The Traitors host<\/a> Alan Cumming also returns as Nightcrawler<\/a>, whom he played in X2: X-Men United, and Kelsey Grammer as Beast, from X-Men: The Last Stand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rebecca Romijn is sharing an update on her return as Mystique in the highly-anticipated Avengers: Doomsday.\u00a0 At The…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":40229,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[6847,27298,27299,88,12761,32527,9616],"class_list":{"0":"post-40228","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-avengers-doomsday","9":"tag-comic-con","10":"tag-comic-con-2025","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-marvel","13":"tag-rebecca-romijn","14":"tag-x-men"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40228","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40228"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40228\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40229"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40228"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40228"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40228"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
