RUMOR: THE ORVILLE Actress Halston Sage May Have Landed The Role Of Dazzler In X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX
It looks like Halston Sage (The Orville, Paper Towns) may have landed the role of Alison Blair, AKA Dazzler, in Simon Kinberg's currently shooting X-Men: Dark Phoenix. Find out more after the jump...
Recently, Omega Underground mentioned 24-year-old The Orville actress Halston Sage as one of the names (along with Suki Waterhouse) they had heard might be in the running to play Dazzler in X-Men: Dark Phoenix, and now some fairly strong evidence would seem to back up their initial report - possibly even confirming that she's landed the role.
Not only was Halston spotted alongside the likes of Tye Sheridan, Sophie Turner, Alexandra Shipp, and Nicholas Hoult at a Hans Zimmer concert in Montreal, but one of the film's stuntmen shared an Instagram pic (since deleted) which appears to show headshots of Sage and Jessica Chastain on a board in the background.
While far from irrefutable proof, this could be a pretty good indication that Halston Sage will indeed be playing Dazzler in X-Men: Dark Phoenix.
We'll update as soon as hear more, but for now be sure to let us know what you make of this in the usual place.
