X-23 has accelerated regeneration, superhuman strength, and adamantium claws.
According to Feige, Daphne Keane was eager to attend the premiere, but her appearance could have been a spoiler. Therefore, Marvel decided to disclose this information in advance
«We decided to show X-23 in the trailer because her appearance reveals the emotional core of the film,» Faigi explained.
The Marvel executive added that Disney’s marketing team knows exactly when to reveal more information and when to hold back. In the end, the studio agreed to include X-23 in the trailer because it looked appropriate and allowed Daphne Keane to attend the premiere.

Hugh Jackman added: «We both had very high expectations for the movie. We wanted to exceed them because these characters mean so much to us. Our friendship is one of the most important things in my life. We wanted to do the best we could, and I think the result exceeded all expectations».
