Fans are speculating that X-23 will appear in Hugh Jackman’s final Wolverine film, Logan.

It looks like we may have our first official confirmation.

The Instagram for the movie released a black and white photo of Dafne Keen, seen in the trailer. The caption reads “Laura” which may confirm the young actress is playing Laura Kinney aka X-23.

X-23 is the clone of Wolverine who first appeared in a X-Men animated series before joining comic books.

The fan-favorite character eventually joined the X-Men. After Wolverine died in comics, Laura assumed her mentor’s costume and code-name.

Fox has been working on possible X-Force and New Mutants films. X-23 was on the second version of X-Force led by Wolverine. Logan formed a third version of the team which included Deadpool.

Logan strikes March 3, 2017.
