Dakota Fanning hasn’t been cast for a Marvel role, but would love it
Dakota Fanning recently clarified that she isn’t currently involved in any Marvel Cinematic Universe projects. Speaking with The Direct at the premiere of her film, The Sun Never Sets, at South by Southwest 2026, she stated she hadn’t received any offers or even had discussions with Marvel Studios, but she’s definitely interested if the opportunity arose.
The actress recently responded to ongoing rumors that she’d be joining the film series, including a 2022 report stating she’d been cast in a secret part. She said she often sees these kinds of speculations online, and it sometimes leads her to check with her agent to see if there’s any truth to them.
When asked if she’d be interested in joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Dakota Fanning admitted she hadn’t given it much thought. However, she expressed enthusiasm, saying she’s open to any role and willing to try anything. Fanning previously played Cassie Holmes, a character with the ability to see the future, in the 2009 film Push.
Dakota Fanning started acting as a child and continued to work in movies and TV as she grew up. She’s appeared in films like Charlotte’s Web, I Am Sam, War of the Worlds, The Twilight Saga, The Runaways, and the series The Alienist. She’s not alone – many other Marvel stars, including Brie Larson, Robert Downey Jr., and Tom Holland, also began their careers as young performers.
Marvel Studios is working on a long-term plan to bring mutants – including characters from the X-Men – into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While they’re planning to introduce new faces and expand the X-Men’s story in future movies and shows, the studio hasn’t announced who will play many of these roles yet. Actress Trinity Jo-Bliss recently clarified that she is not playing the character Jubilee, addressing rumors about her casting.
No announcements have linked Fanning to Marvel projects to date.
