Lady Gaga Reportedly Being Lined Up To Play X-Men Character

Lady Gaga is reportedly being lined up to play X-Men character Emma Frost – aka the White Queen – in an upcoming movie.

The singer has made successful steps into the world of acting in the past, winning a Golden Globe for American Horror Story: Hotel, as well as a Best Actress Oscar nomination for A Star Is Born.

Now, according to We Got This Covered, Marvel wants to have her appear as Frost when X-Men moves to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The character, who evolves in the comics from an X-Men foe to core member and leader of the group, is known for her telepathic abilities and dry wit. Frost was previously played by January Jones in 2011’s X-Men: First Class, though the portrayal was criticized as being disloyal to the comics.
