InLogan, Charles experiences a seizure that triggers a psychic shockwave, instantly incapacitating all those within a certain radius—large enough to devastate an entire hotel and casino. Evidently, if his power were unchecked, it would lead to fatal consequences for those caught in its wake. In a pivotal moment, Logan switches off the radio just as the broadcaster begins to discuss the events in Westchester, leaving the details of the casualties to the imagination.
During the seizure scenes, Hugh Jackman didn’t merely simulate being pushed away. In an effort to enhance the authenticity of the portrayal, he was physically restrained by a rope pulled by two individuals, effectively conveying the sensation of being held back.
One prevailing theory regarding the Westchester Incident posits that Charles suffered a colossal seizure that tragically claimed the lives of the X-Men residing at the X-Mansion. Logan, benefiting from his regenerative abilities that offer a degree of resistance to seizures, managed to intervene, albeit not swiftly enough to rescue his comrades.
