Dafne Keen Remembers Patrick Stewart's Kindness

Dafne Keen recently shared touching recollections of the late Sir Patrick Stewart during an appearance on the "Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum" podcast. Keen, who starred alongside Stewart and Hugh Jackman in her debut film, Logan, spoke about the profound impact they had on her. She fondly recalled how both actors, particularly Stewart, provided a supportive environment during filming, looking out for her as a young actor.

Stewart, who passed away on October 28th, 2026, at the age of 86 after battling Alzheimer's disease and Lewy body dementia, is remembered with great affection. The outpouring of tributes from fans and fellow actors underscores his widespread popularity. Keen's interview, recorded before his passing, now serves as a poignant testament to the deep respect and fondness he inspired in those he worked with, reinforcing his esteemed legacy.

Stewart is slated for a posthumous appearance in the upcoming MCU film "Avengers: Doomsday." This role as Professor X, which he embodied across numerous projects, may be his final performance. The MCU's "Avengers: Secret Wars," scheduled for a 2027 release, will follow "Doomsday," continuing the narrative and Stewart's enduring cinematic presence.
