This replacement isn’t totally out of left field either, as fans of the comics will know that Laura Kinney officially took over the mantle of Wolverine during the 2015 seriesAll-New Wolverine.
Whether or not Dafne Keen’s appearance marks the start of her officially taking on the Wolverine title in the mainline MCU films is mere speculation until the film officially releases, but it’s very unlikely we’ve seen the last of her given the public outcry of support.
