Deadpool and Wolverine (Deadpool and Wolverine) has reached screens around the world. The new film about Marvel Cinematic Universe unites heroes Ryan Reynolds And Hugh Jackman in an adventure across the multiverse. A journey that will take them to the Void, a garbage dump dimension on the edge of time and space where everything erased by the Time Variation Agency (TVA) arrives. There they will encounter Cassandra Novathe menacing villain she plays Emma Corrin.
This character is making his film debut, but is familiar to Marvel comics readers, especially mutant fans. And that’s what Not going to She is nothing but a twin sister Professor. In essence, they have the same powers. But for now Charles Xavier She uses them for good, aiming for world domination. Something that Dead Pool And Wolverine They will have to be avoided in the new film.
“I remember hesitating before going back to watch the performances Patrick Stewart And James McAvoy [del Profesor X]”he confesses Corrine in a roundtable discussion exclusively attended by Hipertextual. “But then I became interested in how, when the power of a character and most of his time is spent in the inner world – when it’s all in the mind, like telepathy and things like that – how that was pre-conceived and communicated. It was something that all these characters in this show had in common. And it was really nice to go back and see these shows again, they’re iconic, and if I can give them some credit, I’ll be happy,” he adds.
Originality and fidelity to comics
Despite Corrine He assures us that he cannot reveal anything about the forces CassandraThis confirms how the character and the other characters were treated. Deadpool and Wolverine“If you watch the trailer, you’ll realize that most of the power is in the mind. She’s the sister Xavierso it runs in the family. But there are other elements to it that I think will surprise people, too,” he begins, without going into detail about it.
“I think we’re doing something very original with this film. Dead Pool And Wolverine in the same universe as this one and unite X-Men Universe With Marvel Universe “And Disney… It’s about being true to the comic book characters that people love, but also giving them new life and finding a way to work, to find your own place in that story. That’s why I think it should always work for everyone and in both worlds,” he muses. Corrine.
In this regard, the relationship between Cassandra And Xavier seemed fundamental in Deadpool and Wolverine to give optimal character development. Charles took on all the evil Not going to in the womb and tried to kill her, but she ultimately survived. “In a way, it gives you a lot to play with in terms of their relationship and how she feels like she wants to get revenge for that, how she feels slighted,” he offers in turn.
“She’s never been allowed to have a proper place in the world. So she’s always trying to figure out where she is or who she is. But all of that throughout her life will always be tied to her brother, because it can’t be. Because he killed her when she was in the womb, and she’s the one who rebuilt herself and found a way to live. That connection is always the elephant in the room. He’s her North Star, and what she revolves around is always there in him. Which I found really interesting,” he comments later. “She knows she can never be like him, she feels like she has to be evil for his sake,” he concludes.
Call Deadpool and Wolverine
At 28 years old, Emma Corrin He has already taken a very important place in the film industry. Her great work so far has been that of a princess Diana of Wales V Crown. A role for which he won a Golden Globe in 2020. Thanks to Deadpool and Wolverinemakes the leap into the superhero world in a completely unexpected way. “I remember exactly where I was. I was driving back to London, stopped at traffic lights, and I had a missed call from my agent. I called him back, and it’s so funny because he told me he’d gotten a call from Marvel, which I didn’t expect. “I didn’t expect that, and obviously they can’t tell you much about it because until they know whether you’re interested or not, they’ll keep all their emails,” he recalls.
“The proposal was very vague. It went something like this: ‘This Shawn Levywe are talking about the next film Dead Pool– He would like to talk to you. And then I met Sean and again, he couldn’t tell me much. But I didn’t even read the script until I signed on to the film,” he admits. Corrinewho defines it as a “true act of faith” on his part.
“From the moment I met Sean and from the moment I started talking to Ryan ReynoldsI knew I could totally understand where they were going with this movie, and I think what really got me was the humor and everything we know and love. Dead Poolbut most of all, the essence of the story. It’s a story about friendship. I saw the idea from day one. That’s what really caught my attention,” the joke concludes.
From Willy Wonka to Hans Landa
To carry Cassandra Nova on the screen, Corrine looked for references outside of the two versions Professor from the saga X-Men. “I’m putting [al Willy Wonka de] Gene Wilder on the table and in fact I proposed to him Sean what when we met Cassandra She first came on stage doing a somersault. It was quickly vetoed, but I’m sure it would have been a fantastic recording. And one of the links he gave me Ryan was Christoph Waltzhis character in Fucking bastards, Hans Landa“, check.
“Sean And Ryan They were really interested in it. Cassandra He had this calm, charmingly sweet and straightforward nature. It’s like she tricks you into letting your guard down and then traps you. It’s like a constant change in time. Like a British summer where you never know if it’s going to rain or shine. She’s very suited to that climate,” delves into the villain’s character Deadpool and Wolverine.
“And then I wanted to bring in something a little bit disturbing. I think Gene Wilder this is interesting in Fantasy world (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), I love that film and his performance in it,” he says later. In particular, he wanted to get from him the way he creates chaos around himself without directly intervening. “He even has a lot of power, although in a way he stays away from the action. He gets carried away, and you almost think he’s controlling the kids. Is he really creating this chaos? Because he really has this power, even in his glowing figure and his elfin gesture. It seems to have a lot to do with what’s going on, although you don’t actually see any direct action,” he suggests.
Cassandra It will be very similar, although in terms of the character’s physical gestures, he had to look for the key himself, because Levi This gave him complete creative freedom. “We present you with several options, but it’s quite difficult because Sean did Very strange things and you don’t want to start doing something like that Eleven“There have been a lot of people in the Marvel universe who have used emotions as weapons before. So it was interesting, something to think about,” he says.
Avoid spoilers Deadpool and Wolverine
In addition to the need to work on aspects such as physicality and movement Cassandra Nova, Corrine had to deal with the difficult process inherent to Marvel. Under no circumstances will spoilers be allowed Deadpool and Wolverine“It was actually a great training in how to be a politician, wasn’t it? Because politicians always avoid questions and dodge them, and I think, oddly enough, you have a very similar training with Marvel. You get used to saying a lot of things about absolutely nothing, always avoiding those topics,” he laughs.
“Fortunately… If this movie had been independent, it would have been different. It’s quite difficult when you’re making a movie that’s original and independent, you can’t say anything. But the Marvel universe is so vast, the multiverse… There are so many characters to talk about, and these characters have such a legacy. I was surprised that even my character, who I just started playing, I have so much to talk about. So it wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would be,” he thanks anyway.
