Speaking with someone who means a lot to me and my life is a rare day. However, this time I got to talk to Lenore Zann who voices my favorite character of all time, Rogue of the X-Men.

Ever since I first watched the X-Men Animated Series on that first Saturday morning, my fascination with Rogue began. She was the first female character I truly connected with—strong, complex, independent, confident, everything I aspired to be and more. Thank you, Lenore Zann, for your outstanding portrayal of this remarkable woman. Your performance brought her to life in a way that has influenced who I am today in more ways than you’ll ever know.
