THE NEW MUTANTS director Josh Boone may have indirectly confirmed ‘Game of Thrones’ actress Maisie Williams as portraying Wolfsbane, the young Scottish mutant with a feral bite!
Boone tagged Williams and posted an illustration of her as the character by artist Ashley Guillory, who illustrated the last year’s “leaked” animatic. The clip featured Wolfsbane, along with Magik, Lockheed, Mirage, Cannonball, Sunspot and the villainous Demon Bear.
Word of her being cast in Boone’s ambitiously different X-Men film began as early as March 2016.
