Found on Singer’s instagram by Soulsword323 on CBR. The hair cap raised the question of if Lorna will have green (possibly energy) hair through CGI in this scene.
It’s definitely a mutant concentration camp scene. You can see D.O and some blurred text on her shirt (her left side, viewer’s right). Yet more to suggest that she’s probably dyeing her hair black to keep from being discovered as a mutant.
Corporate Marvel: “Polaris doesn’t deserve to be in <insert major event>, she’s not an A-lister or a B-lister, basically we don’t see her value and probably never will. Why do you think we put her in forced limbo for two years?”
Comicbook.com headline: “A teaser for the new show just came out, and POLARIS is in it! Check it out!”
Corporate Marvel (not to be confused with Creative Marvel) may not value her, but I’m happy to see everyone else does.
I won’t lie that I’m disappointed Lorna isn’t rocking her green hair in this. BUT. I’m okay. Emma as Lorna still looks badass for the brief clip. And there’s still a little bit extra for me to point out.
Having paused in the middle of her clip, it looks like Jamie Chung in the background. As in, her hair isn’t pink, and she’s not wearing makeup to look more like Blink. She looks “normal.”
Remember that the premise of this show is a family joining an underground network of mutants. Pink hair and face markings would make Blink stand out. Green hair would make Polaris stand out. This all meshes with the idea that they could be covering up how they actually look as mutants to avoid being caught.
Alternately, both could look “normal” now but then their looks change later in the show. Maybe when Lorna goes full power, for example.
In other words, I’m trusting that Fox has plans in store for Lorna’s green hair that aren’t apparent but will eventually come out in the course of the show. Might even be reasonable to say they’re withholding the “full mutant” look for both characters as something to see when watching the pilot.
It might seem strange to some that I’m putting this much trust in Fox, but it’s the exact same amount of trust I used to have in Marvel. I would still have that level of trust toward Marvel to this day if Marvel treated the character better for the past 8 years.
I look forward to more footage. I expect awesome things from Gifted and Emma’s performance representing Lorna.
Polaris in Geology/Geophysics/Archeology themed t-shirts. (Credit for the designs goes to google)
I got this idea as I was shopping for more nerd shirts and wondered about weather Lorna would wear such pun shirts. I came to the conclusion: YES! So I sketched her with the designs you can see above.
What do you think? (Sorry for the quality… I am not the best artist.)
Bonus: Alex supporting her and rocking a t-shirt himself.
Aww yeah. Lorna sporting puns is awesome, and this is why I love fandom. Other people come up with cool ideas I’d never think of.
