Who Is Kitty X Men Character Kitty Pryde?

Kitty Pryde is a mutant who can pass through solid matter and appears in X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014), played by Elliot Page. Her ability to move through solid matter is often described as phasing. In the film, she also helps send Wolverine to the 1970s, giving her a connection to his journey into the past. Wolverine is played by Hugh Jackman. The film opens in 2023, and Wolverine travels back to recruit young Professor X and Magneto to prevent the Sentinels' creation.

Those details offer several ways to place Kitty: by her name, her phasing ability, Page's portrayal, or her part in Wolverine's journey. They also distinguish her contribution from Wolverine's mission after he reaches the earlier decade. Kitty helps send him back; he travels to recruit Professor X and Magneto.

Kitty also has a connection to Lockheed, an alien dragon described as having a particular affinity for her in Marvel's 2026 Marvel Snap role-playing expansion. That description comes from the expansion, while the Wolverine connection discussed here comes from the film. The X-Men movies page provides wider franchise context.

What Powers Does Kitty Pryde Have?

Kitty Pryde can pass through solid matter, a power often described as phasing. The description identifies what she can do: she can move through something solid. For a reader looking for Kitty's signature ability, that is the place to start. The term phasing is a way to refer to the same ability, so both descriptions point to Kitty Pryde.

In X-Men: Days of Future Past, Kitty also helps send Wolverine to the 1970s. That action is part of the film's connection between its opening in 2023 and the earlier decade Wolverine reaches. It is useful to keep the two descriptions separate: passing through solid matter describes phasing, while helping Wolverine reach the past describes Kitty's contribution to the film's story.

The details of one action should not be assumed to explain the other. Knowing that Kitty can pass through solid matter identifies her phasing ability, but that description alone does not explain how she helps send Wolverine back. Likewise, the film's account of Wolverine's journey gives Kitty a role in that story without changing the basic description of her ability to pass through solid matter.

Who Plays Kitty Pryde in the X-Men Movies?

Elliot Page plays Kitty Pryde in X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014). Kitty is the mutant who can pass through solid matter and who helps send Wolverine to the 1970s in the film. Hugh Jackman plays Wolverine, so the two performers can be identified with the characters connected by that journey.

The film opens in 2023 and connects that future setting with the 1970s, the period Wolverine travels back to reach. Kitty helps send him to the earlier decade, while Wolverine travels back to recruit young Professor X and Magneto to prevent the Sentinels' creation. The opening setting, destination and mission provide context for Kitty's contribution without making her role the same as Wolverine's mission.

For someone searching for the actor, the direct answer is Page. For someone trying to identify the character in the story, her name, phasing ability and connection to Wolverine's journey are useful details to consider together. The film connection is separate from Marvel's description of Lockheed, an alien dragon with a particular affinity for Kitty in its 2026 Marvel Snap role-playing expansion.

What Is Kitty Pryde's Connection to Wolverine?

Kitty Pryde helps send Wolverine to the 1970s in X-Men: Days of Future Past. Wolverine travels back to recruit young Professor X and Magneto to prevent the Sentinels' creation. Kitty's contribution connects him to the earlier period, while his mission concerns the people he seeks there.

The film opens in 2023, making the 1970s the earlier setting Wolverine travels back to reach. Elliot Page plays Kitty, and Hugh Jackman plays Wolverine. Their characters' connection in this account is the journey: Kitty helps send Wolverine back, and Wolverine travels to recruit Professor X and Magneto. Each part is relevant to understanding why the two characters are discussed together in the film.

Kitty can also pass through solid matter, an ability often called phasing. That is a separate description from her role in helping Wolverine reach the past. The fact that she can phase should not by itself be taken as an explanation of the journey. Similarly, Wolverine's task of recruiting Professor X and Magneto describes his mission after traveling back, rather than the action attributed to Kitty in sending him there.

Who Is Lockheed to Kitty Pryde?

Lockheed is an alien dragon with a particular affinity for Kitty Pryde. Marvel's 2026 Marvel Snap role-playing expansion describes that connection between Lockheed and Kitty. The description identifies both what Lockheed is and the particular connection to Kitty, whose name also appears in discussions of X-Men: Days of Future Past.

The source and medium matter when following the two connections in this guide. The description of Lockheed comes from Marvel's role-playing expansion. Kitty's role in helping Wolverine reach the 1970s comes from the film. Those are separate details from separate works, and the expansion's description should be understood in that context.

Kitty can pass through solid matter, an ability often described as phasing. In X-Men: Days of Future Past, Elliot Page plays her, and she helps send Wolverine to the earlier decade. Wolverine, played by Hugh Jackman, travels back to recruit young Professor X and Magneto to prevent the Sentinels' creation. Lockheed's stated affinity for Kitty gives readers another connection to her name, but the description here comes from the Marvel Snap role-playing expansion. Check the title and medium when looking for more about either connection.
