Fan Casting Maryanne Boudreaux in Rupert Wyatt's Gambit

The towering, terrifying matriarch of the Boudreaux crime family and head of the Assassins Guild. Dressed in silk and furs, speaking in honeyed Southern drawls, Maryanne is a genteel monster who will kill her rivals, traffic mutant children, and shoot a man in the back — all while serving beignets. She loves her daughter Bella, but she flinches when Bella hugs her. She hires mutant mercenaries while barely hiding her disgust for them. When Gambit threatens her empire, she responds with a bounty, a shotgun, and a cold smile. She is the devil in a designer dress, and she will burn New Orleans before she loses.
