Condor has no credits to her name yet, but she is also joining a pretty young cast of actors and actresses including Sophie Turner, who is well-known for playing Sensa Stark on Game of Thrones, as Jean Grey, Tye Sheridan as Scott Summers, and Alexandra Shipp as Ororo Munroe.
Jubilee first appeared in UNCANNY X-MEN #244 and was created by Marc Silvestri and Chris Claremont. While the character of Jubilee has appeared in X-Men, X2, and X-Men: The Last Stand, she was either a background character or left on the cutting room floor. Most fans know her biggest and best appearance was from the classic 90s X-Men: The Animated Series.
In case some don’t know what the 90’s ‘X-Men: The Animated Series’ was like here’s the intro to the show:
