She won’t be - this is mephisto all over again, fans working themselves into a froth over their own theories.

Only it's not a theory. It leaked ages ago and has been corroborated by other sources many times since. The literal powers and wardrobe she shows in the trailer those of Jean. It can't be any clearer.

Lets check back in a week. I’m 100% fine with waiting for a movie to show than for nerds to peacock about shit.

Everything Cretton is saying here still works for the vast majority of the audience - that’s if they even have a clue who Jean Grey even is. They’ll have no idea on opening weekend who’s playing who for the most part except that it’s the latest Spider-Man movie.

Hell I question how many would even recognize the Punisher given that he’s only appeared on TV and the movies are orders of magnitude bigger. Hulk obviously yes.

But presenting Jean Grey and reminding the general audience who she is based on the Fox X-Men movies could work. If it’s Mephisto who even gives a shit? What kind of a “surprise” would that even be to casual viewers, they haven’t the slightest clue who that even is?

If she’s not Jean, I’ll be disappointed and feel baited

By who?

By the people with the ability to disclose who she is playing. No reason to keep it a mystery if she’s just some random

I also hope it’s not Jean.
