LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Chloe Bailey is popularly known for collaborating with her sister as part of the R&B duo Chloe x Halle. However, the sisters have gone ahead to find individual projects, with Halle being cast to star in Disney's live-action remake of 'The Little Mermaid'. In a recent interview with Collider, the outlet asked many interesting questions and one of them was if there was an animated character she'd like to bring into live-action, and Chloe replied, "I don't know about a live-action, but I want to be Storm in Marvel, and Disney owns Marvel, so..."

'I can be free to be myself with no judgment'

When talking to Collider, Chloe shared how her sister's work in 'The Little Mermaid' inspired her to take on films of that magnitude. She responded with, "the sky's the limit, you know?" and further added, "the right opportunity will find you. So just like Swarm, I was able to bring my music and tie that in and my love for thrillers and suspense. And even this movie Praise This coming out soon, I got to show me as my bubbly bright self and my performing aspect and things like that. And even with Girl from North Country, which I'm really excited to shoot, I've always been such a huge Broadway head and being able to take Bob Dylan songs and take this Tony Award-winning adaptation and make it into an incredible film, it's like all of the right things are finding me. And what I love is that each character, there's a piece of Chloe in there so that’s what makes it easier to portray and act. And I think that's why I've liked acting more, because it's a place where I can be free to be myself with no judgment because nobody knows which piece of that is Chloe." according to Collider.

'They should find an actual unknown'

The internet can often be a funny place that has reactions to almost everything. The news of Chloe Bailey wanting to play a popular superhero in the X-men franchise has divided Twitter and brought out hilarious responses from fans.

I’d just like to see a new X-Men adaptation please!". Another user chimed in with a big "Absolutely not", while a user put out a suggestion with, "She has the beauty but does she have the acting chops. ANNA DIOP , JODI SMITH have both."
