Whether this is a loss for Marvel or merely a plot twist in her burgeoning career, one thing's certain - fans aren't abandoning their dream casting just yet! She said:

"I did it once. But it was one of the first jobs I ever did, and they took all my lines out...they even took my name away ... I count that, and then I move on"

For those who don't know Jenna was also there in Iron Man 3 where she played the Vice President's daughter. As soon as the news came out, someone took to his X account and commented:

"Put her in the DCU as Zatana"

Some fans took Jenna Ortega's Marvel character news as a cue to jump ship, already speculating that she should be on the DCU as Zatanna instead.
