X-23 and Logan

The Internet is abuzz that the kid holding the hand of Logan in the upcoming 3rd Wolverine movie has been identified as Laura Kinney X-23, the clone of Wolverine, and she will be portrayed by Sienna Novikov.

Sienna Novikov is a relative newbie to the industry and according to imdb, she is a US State Fencing Qualified and a State and Regional Gymastics champion.

She was a picture double featured in Bad Moms and an un-credited extra in Daddy's Home.

She joins Boyd Holbrook (Narcos, Gone Girl) who will be playing Donald Pierce

Now we're waiting for the internet backlash at the sudden whitewashing of Laura Kinney's originally Asian ancestral make-up.
