SNL turns Jenna Ortega into X-Men’s Rogue and it’s perfect

Jenna Ortega was in several dark and sinister movies during the last few years. XKiller Queen, The Babysitter, Scream 5, Scream 6, then over on TV there’s the second season of It is possible toPlease see the following: NaturallyNetflix is the new hit Wednesday, Her dance routine became a viral sensation. Therefore, it is no surprise that her dance routine went viral after she performed on Saturday Night LiveThey would draw sketches of none of them on March 11.

They added another role to their array as angsty teenagers trying their best: Rogue of the X-Men.

Technically, in the SNL sketch she’s not playing Rogue — she’s Zena Nutrino, a psychic and student at the “Professor Zander’s Academy for Extraordinary Children,” who is angry she’s not with the team doing actual important things. Instead she’s stuck on the “School vs. School” quiz show squaring off against the exceedingly normal West Grove High students.

It’s not a fair fight — West Grove doesn’t have super powers, and Zena thinks the Shakespeare quote “to be or not to be” is from the character “Toby.” But unfortunately Professor Chandliss Zander says she has to play because she can’t control her powers just yet. While that may sound more like the Dark Phoenix, the prominent white streak and green and yellow ensemble (a la the Jim Lee relaunch look) is straight out of Rogue’s wardrobe. But what about the general disregard for people? That’s all Ortega.

Rejoice! Wednesday fans! If you want a glimpse of Ortega revisiting the Wednesday dance, the Please Don’t Destroy boys got her to do it one more (last?) time.
