Speaking with Empire Magazine<\/a><\/strong>, actress Blu Hunt<\/strong> detailed how it was seeing herself portray Marvel’s Native American superhero, Dani Moonstar, on the big screen for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m an indigenous superhero,\u201d she said with a grin, while saying it\u2019s \u201can honor\u201d to play the role. \u201cI\u2019m not just in the background, to please people. I\u2019m carrying the movie.\u201d This is true, as we follow Dani as she’s introduced to this creepy “hospital” that houses new mutants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was overwhelming,\u201d said Hunt of seeing the finished film earlier this year. \u201cI never thought I\u2019d see myself in a movie, and the first shot is of my face! I was shaking in the theatre, but Maisie [Williams] grabbed me, like, \u2018You\u2019re good! It\u2019s good!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
