Was Rogue originally supposed to be the audience surrogate character...

Kind of like how Jubilee was on the animated series from the '90s or Kitty Pryde was in the "Pryde of the X-Men" pilot from 1989. They were all adolescent/teenage girls who were suddenly thrown into the world of the X-Men. But then mid-way through, it was decided that Wolverine was going to for all intents and purposes, serve as the audience surrogate. I guess it would kind of be like in Star Wars if Luke Skywalker started off as the hero, but once we meet Han Solo (who like Logan, is the lovable, charming, bad boy-rogue character), the movie suddenly shifts to being from his point of view.
