Dafne Keen is describing a jarring part of growing up on film sets: adults at industry parties trying to hand her cocaine while she was still a kid.

Talking on Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum the Logan lead said the offers came at wrap gatherings when she was tiny roughly 11 through 13. "I saw what that was so I was like I don't really have any interest in that," she recalled.

Which parties she meant remains fuzzy. The Wolverine drama hit theaters in 2017 and she was about 12 then.

She told the host she still avoids drugs and alcohol. Nights out can run until dawn she said but she stays clear-headed.

Keen also credited co-star Hugh Jackman with guarding her schedule on Logan making sure the set stayed fun for her and shielding her from adult drama off camera.
