X-Men's "Rogue", Actress & Activist, Lenore Zann

Janette's TV Podcast

What’s your superpower? For actress and activist, Lenore Zann, best known for playing “Rogue” (based on Marvels comics superhero team) in the X-Men Series, the 90’s X-Men: The Animated Series Disney+ revival X-Men ’97, it’s fighting for the underdog. A skill she derives from her character as well as serving as a Member of Parliament and in the House of Commons of Canada for the Liberal Party for 12 years.
Lenore’s passion for helping others began in Sydney, New Sout Wales, Australia where she was born and heavily influenced by her grandmother. She emigrated to Canada with her parents in 1968, first residing in Regina, Saskatchewan, then Truro, Nova Scotia where she graduated from Cobequid Educational Centre. She later attended York University to study drama, fine arts and political science.
Prior to entering federal politics, an award-winning performer, Lenore has had various screen, voice-over, television and gaming roles since she burst on the entertainment scene at age 19 playing Marilyn Monroe in the live rock opera "Hey Marilyn!" She also represented the electoral district of Truro-Bible Hill in the Nova Scotia House of Assembly from 2009 until 2019 as a member of the Nova Scotia New Democratic Party and from June 9, 2019, until September 12, 2019, as an independent.
In this episode, she joins me to discuss what portraying “Rouge” means to her, how’s she’s adopted “Rouge’s” superpowers in her own life, what she wants women & girls to emulate from “Rogue’s” behaviour, her upcoming book “A Rouge’s Tale”, movie roles, Comicon appearances, and legislative endeavours!
