Hey Youtubers, it's Charlie so this is going to be an explanation for X 23.
The way their using her in the movie the future of the Wolverine character.
So let's break it down.
The real point of the latest trailer is just to give you a better idea for the story and
confirm the fact that it is the Laura Kinney X 23 character.
So if you have no idea who that is, she is the 23rd attempt to replicate the weapon X
program because the sample they had was damaged.
She wound up becoming of female clone.
Instead of a mail clone like.
They originally intended, but the person in charge of the program Xander Rice is actually
the son of someone that Wolverine himself killed in the original weapon X program so
he has a beef against, Wolverine, but this close created from his genetic material and
she has adamantine clause, but her skeleton is regular, so one of the biggest questions
I had in my trailer video yesterday was how does she grow if she has adamantine bones
and I almost forgot there actually is a new round of the Deadpool giveaway.
All you have to do to enter is be a subscriber leave a comment on this video.
It's a $20 comics all and she giftcard, but in the same way that Wolverine revolted, just
completely went berserk after he came out of the tank in the weapon X program so does
Laura Kinney and the reason she's named Laura Kinney is because one of the other people
in that program was named Dr. Kinney she was tasked with raising her.
So the movie does a good job of explaining that where like the little girl has a mother,
but technically because she's a clone, she has no mother she just a piece of Wolverine,
so she's the closest thing that he has to a daughter and I know a lot of you are asking
about DAC and Wolverine son from the comics all do a separate video about that because
it's a completely separate thing with her trying to keep the movie as simple as possible.
So in this universe.
There is only X 23 there's no DAC and so X 23 is raised in captivity of swords for about
seven years training with the doctor that was responsible for creating her, but the
person in charge.
Xander Rice isn't happy with the progress she's making they're trying to train a killer
here it's the weapon X program she just as normal little girl, so he create something
called the trigger sent and uses it on Dr. Kinney causing Laura X 23 to hold out on her
and kill her best friend.
So make all the trigger jokes you want, but that's basically what's happening in these
trailers here where she goes in a berserker rage, to try and save Logan from these people
in the context of the movie in the scenes is just a little bit different because you
have a really old Logan it's like 2029 that's the year so it's said way after that days
of Future past post-apocalyptic timeline member at the end of that movie they fix things.
So imagine this taking place.
Well after that the director said he wanted to be far enough away from those events that
there wasn't any mixing or matching with plot line like this was just the next episode.
This was like, way further in the future.
So most of Logan's regeneration powers have Wayne he doesn't heal as fast and it hurts
him to fight.
So he doesn't want to fight, but the X 23 character is fresh off the genetic printing
press she has all of his ferocity, so she's like this X-Acto blade of rage.
Whereas, Wolverine is kind of like the dolt instrument.
So he can still totally hold out when he needs to, when he's pushed over the line, but for
the most part you have to imagine that he is a lot like the older Prof. X here, he just
doesn't look it.
So he's very tired and Prof. X is another matter to that's a whole other video the death
of Prof. X there been about 10 times in the comics that Wolverine is died there also been
a couple big story arcs with a killed off Prof. X, but the adamantine them.
So like I said she has a regular skeleton but just adamantine clause.
That's how she grows normally.
So what happened is is they bombarded her with radiation to force the activation of
her X gene just in the same way the Deadpool movie bombarded him with all kinds of tests
to try and activate his X gene once she does they bond her clause with adamantine him and
then she makes her scape Wolverine style just in the same way he holds out and just kills
everybody and runs off.
But because she's so mad at Wolverine for making her creation possible she killed her
best friend she thinks of herself as a monster so she goes after the only person she knows
is ultimately responsible.
So she blames Wolverine and tries to track him down a bunch of people close to her diet.
But then when she finally tracks Wolverine down.
They come to terms he explains that he knows what's going on and she gets arrested by Capt.
America, so the avengers the heroes the X-Men they feel like she's not responsible for all
the debts that are on her head as she tried to escape she goes on to start leading a normal
life trying to be a superhero in the marvel universe but you still have Xander Rice in
the weapon X people in the reverse of this movie try to track her down, so in the comics
she was already fully grown when she tracked Wolverine down she still just a little girl
in this movie.
But what does that say about the future of the character so we understand her past.
Now we know what she does in the movie she's basically like a wolverine that's fresh off
the printing press totally bad ass totally ferocious, but what are they gonna do it this
movie is so far in the future are they going to use the character so the director said
that he didn't intend her to take Wolverine's place or his mantle, but he hopes the fans,
embrace or like they really enjoy the character so it makes it sound like the end of this
movie doesn't suddenly time travel into the past like there's no crazy twist.
It just, a bookend for the character where she just goes on and tries to lead a normal
life.
Whatever ends up happening to the Wolverine character.
So with that in mind that just leaves the other X-Men films to reboot the character
with another actor if they want if they're not gonna do it Deadpool, Wolverine crossover,
which I do think is still very possible but the real opportunity here for X 23 her future
in the X-Men universe.
I think is with the X force movie.
So Wolverine has a long history with X force.
It's like a more hardcore version of X-Men I 40 done a couple X force video so add links
at the end of this, but during volume 3, X 23 joined the team so you could just do a
version of that.
So you get your Wolverine character even though it's not Wolverine they don't have to completely
reboot the character ahead of schedule.
They can still leave room for Hugh Jackman to come back and do it Deadpool crossover
if he wants I think it's gonna be a couple years for the even talk about what can happen
with Wolverine going forward, but X 23 still wide open.
So let me know they do X force which they are doing that movies and development.
Do you want them to include the X 23 character but because of all the timeline problems.
There's a couple hoops that you have to jump through, so I'd be cool with whatever version
they want to go with that they want to go with the younger version.
Just like in this movie or if they want to go with a fully grown clone to be great to
let me know how do you want Laura Kinney to appear in the other X-Men movies the beauty
of all this is that it sounds like there's going to be a soft reboot for the main X-Men
films anyway so I feel like whatever they decide to do, it will totally be cool as long
as it's a good movie.
That's all people care about.
Just remember the Deadpool movie is actually going to give birth to X force because cable
has to come first.
So this is all couple years down the road so there's plenty of time to figure it out.
Let me know in the comments what kind of X-Men universe videos you guys want me to do going
forward under you guys are big fans a Deadpool big fans of Wolverine but if there any X-Men
related videos you guys want me to do or explainers just let me know in the comments speaking
of reboots, they just started announcing the actors that are on the shortlist for the Green
Lantern movie.
It will probably change, but it's actually a pretty interesting list, and it involves
Bradley Cooper, there's a whole area story about his audition for the original Green
Lantern movie that he lost out to Ryan Reynolds on.
So I'll probably do a video for that on Saturday.
There's also some new Star Wars episode 8 I'm going to post.
