Cassandra Nova is rumored to appear in Deadpool 3, but who exactly is this X-Men villain, and will Emma Corrin be playing her? Here’s what we know so far about this menacing supervillain who could soon be introduced to the MCU.
Who is Cassandra Nova?
Cassandra Nova is an X-Men villain who is closely tied to Charles Xavier. She is considered his sister as she copied his DNA to become his twin in the womb.
What are Cassandra Nova’s powers?
Cassandra Nova’s powers included telepathy and telekinesis, closely mirroring Charles Xavier’s abilities. She can also mimic the DNA of others.
If she is in Deadpool 3, you can expect her to be a formidable foe.
Is Emma Corrin playing Cassandra Nova in Deadpool 3?
Emma Corrin is reportedly playing Cassandra Nova in Deadpool 3.
Industry insider DanielRPK posted to his Patreon account stating that he can confirm that Emma Corrin is playing Cassandra Nova in the upcoming Deadpool 3 movie.
Of course, it’s worth noting that this is far from official confirmation and we won’t really know if Corrin is playing Charles Xavier’s sister until more set photos leak, a trailer drops, or the movie itself is out. For now, we simply have the semi-reliable — at least when it comes to MCU rumors — DanielRPK claiming that Corrin is involved.
It’s also worth noting that Deadpool 3 is expected to have a huge number of cameos and so, if Corrin indeed plays Cassandra Nova, there’s no guarantee that she will be in the movie for very long. She could even end up on the cutting room floor, as the movie has yet to finish shooting and complete post-production.
