Perhaps the most exciting of the recent X-Men: Apocalypse casting announcements, however, was the news that a member of Winterfell would be joining the Xavier School For Gifted Youngsters. Famke Janssen was another talented actor who didn't get to do much with her role of Jean Grey, underwritten as a sensitive soul who then dies and goes evil and that's about it. It was cool seeing her during that little end scene in Days Of Future Past, but it's going to be even cooler seeing the character taken over by Sansa Stark. Actor Sophie Turner will have to work on her American accent for the part of Jean Grey, but she's already got the red hair and fiery-yet-reserved temperament down. Outside of Game Of Thrones, Turner played the teenage version of Vanessa Redgrave's character in 2013 TV Gothic thriller story The Thirteenth Tale, starred in Spanish-British horror film Another Me, and will appear alongside Hailee Steinfeld in upcoming action-comedy Barely Lethal. She's got skills.
