\u201cBroken,\u201d Brown responds. \u201cI felt like I probably didn’t get it, because I think there was someone else that was better.\u201d<\/p>\n
Partridge ultimately declares that Brown is telling the truth, pointing out that his costar would\u2019ve been around the right age to play the character of X-23 in the 2017 Wolverine spinoff, Logan.<\/p>\n
