She was great in the punisher too, not a huge role but she was great in what they gave her to do.
Look at the volume in those luscious lockes. I'm genuinely happy to see the OG cast back!
Like fine wine 😮💨🤩
ugh… they totally made her look like dog shit in this movie…. I can't remember did her version have scales on her originally because I don't remember and feel the scales are from the Jennifer Laurence version…. they really did there best to uglify her in this film, I TRULLY hate Modern movies……
1:55 she's got 2 little mistyques.
Still stunning, still would 100% be nervous AF, to be in the same room.
"Due diligence"? Are you researching & running background checks? Weird term to use there, Rebecca.
I can't blame her. Not only did every Mystique actress complain about the makeup but the 2000s were known for men sexualising female characters and many women were unhappy but had no voice. So, I can't blame her for wanting to embrace the costume but without it being a cleavage dress.
Someone tell Jerry it's time to bring back Sliders…….it's time!!❤
Love her in SNW, and was hyped to see her Doomsday reveal
Looks freaking horrible 😂
Jesus, she looks good for someone 54.
OG Mystique will always be peak. She aged so gracefully
Jerry is one lucky man
She's a gem! Glad to see her back!!
Rebecca Romijn was made for Mystique.
Wtf she still looks amazing so why the Avengers make up artists make her look so frumpy??
The Real Mystique
She’s literally the one I’m excited the most about Doomsday
Jennifer Lawrence was good as Mystique, but Rebecca Romijn is the OG, so I love that it's her who's returning to the role.
I wanted to see Jennifer Lawrence so bad. People can say what they want. People have a tendency of always calling the first actor to play a character "GREAT?IRREPLACABLE/OG" stuff but I got news for you all. It doesn't always work like that. In Mystique's case for example, Jennifer Lawrence brought the character to life where we were able to know her full story and sympathize with her especially in Days of Future Past. Rebecca's version was just a sexy femme fatale who followed Magneto blindly…that's all. Trust me. This generation knows Mystique because of Jennifer, not Rebecca.
They need to stop killing characters and bringing them back like nothing happened. It's getting f-ing ridiculous.
She still looks REALLY good. So glad she was willing and able to come back for Doomsday.
Love Jennifer Lawrence, but she was a brat about playing Mystique even though SHE agreed to play the role.
So glad that she's back
Mother
Rebecca still looks fantastic and is really good in Star Trek Strange New World and very cool she's playing Mystique again, so many years later.
Yo Rebecca Romijn is still hot!
