Hold on to your dragons everybody Queen Alicent is the Dark Phoenix now! If rumors are to be believed, Olivia Cooke will be portraying the role of Jean Grey in the MCU. Who needs dragons when you can wield your fire and control the entire fabric of the universe? This seems like an upgrade from being a dethroned queen.
Olivia Cooke is known for her roles in Emma Decody in Bates Motel, Ready Player One, and more recently as Queen Alicent Hightower in the Game Of Thrones prequel and spinoff House of the Dragon.
