In the film, Dani Moonstar acts as an audience surrogate to a certain extent, as it is through her eyes as a new patient that we get to know the primary setting of the story: a hospital where young mutants who can’t fully control their powerful abilities are kept. It is here that Dani meets not only Dr. Cecilia Reyes, who serves as the overseer of the facility, but others like herself including Rahne Sinclair (Maisie Williams), Illyana Rasputin (Anya Taylor-Joy), Roberto da Costa (Henry Zaga), and Sam Guthrie (Charlie Heaton).
