Lauren will play the character of Switch. As Variety described, she is, like David Haller played by Dan Stevens, a mutant with a secret ability that may help execute David’s plans. According to a report from CBR, Switch, in the comics, has body-switching abilities and was originally depicted a villain in X-Force. Although Legion is based on the eponymous Marvel character, we have to wait until the premiere of the show this year to find out what exactly Lauren’s role will be in the series and in David’s life.

Before this new venture, Lauren collaborated with Marc Jacobs for a collection, which dropped in October last year.
