Ellen Page is known for playing Kitty Pryde in X-Men: The Last Stand. We bet you didn’t realize she didn’t originate the role, though! In the first two films, Kitty Pryde makes cameos as a student at Professor X’s School For Gifted Students.

In X-Men, Pryde is played by Sumela Kay who gets flustered and runs through a wall to avoid being late to class. In X2: X-Men United, Katie Start takes over the role and is featured falling through floors to escape attackers at the school. Page took over for the third movie when it was determined Kitty Pryde would become a featured mutant.
