'Deadpool & Wolverine' is one of the most awaited MCU movies releasing this year. Directed by Shawn Levy, the movie stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in the lead roles. Emma Corrin will officially join the 'Deadpool' and Marvel film franchise and will essay the role of Cassandra Nova, the main antagonist. In an interview with GQ, 'The Crown' star talked about playing the role of Cassandra and working with Ryan Reynolds.
Emma Corrin told GQ, "There's a lot of pressure on it, but I think it's the right one at the right time. Because it's Deadpool, and Deadpool has always broken the mold, right? That's why Ryan (Reynolds) is a literal genius... the genre has been incredibly safe, and at the moment, it's on the rocks, people come in and blow it out of the water again."
Ryan Reynolds will reprise his role of Wade Wilson aka Deadpool from its previous instalment. Hugh Jackman, who played the role of Wolverine in the previous 'X-Men' movies, will also reprise his role. It has been reported that Wolverine will be seen in an alternative universe.
While speaking to Fandango, director Shawn Levy talked about the tone of the movie and said, "We were clear from the get-go. We said, 'Well, the three of us [Levy, Ryan Reynolds, and Hugh Jackman] are going to do this and we've got to be truthful to the tone of a Deadpool movie.' That means we're not softening the edges. We're going to be audacious and funny and edgy, the way I know I, as a fan, want from Logan and from Wade Wilson."
"I have to say, every time Ryan, Hugh, and I went in expecting pushback, we got support from Kevin, from everyone at Disney. They have trusted us and allowed us to do the version of Deadpool & Wolverine that we feel is best," he added.
The movie also stars Matthew Macfadyen as Paradox, who is seen as a Time Variance Authority (TVA) agent. Morena Baccarin, Rob Delaney, Leslie Uggams, Karan Soni, Brianna Hildebrand, Stefan Kapičić, Shioli Kutsuna, Randal Reeder and Lewis Tan will reprise their roles from the previous 'Deadpool' movies.
