The most anticipated film of the year for many fans was Deadpool & Wolverine, featuring Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool. This movie finally brought together these two iconic characters, a long-awaited pairing for fans.
Currently, the film is achieving tremendous success in theaters worldwide, with audiences eagerly discovering and counting the numerous Easter Eggs hidden throughout. Among these, Chris Evans’ return—though not in the role you might expect—stood out as one of the film’s most significant moments.
As anyone who’s seen the film knows, Chris Evans’ cameo took a famously dramatic turn after his character encounters Emma Corrin’s Cassandra Nova. The scene concluded in such a memorable way that even Corrin admitted she felt “terrible” about what she did to Evans on screen.
With the movie now released, we can delve into all its details. Actress Emma Corrin, who stars as Cassandra Nova, recently spoke with GQ about her role, her preparation, and notable moments from the film, including the significance of the cameos. When asked about her scene with Chris Evans, Corrin shared her thoughts on what transpired:
Okay, let’s get into spoilers. You got to kill Chris Evans. How did that feel?
Absoooolutely mad. I felt so bad when we were in the screening the other day. Because we watched it after the New York premiere with all these Lincoln Center full of fans, and everyone was so excited when they see him appear on screen, and then after three minutes, I’ve killed him. I felt terrible. I was hiding in my seat. Yeah, it was weird. Not something I thought I’d be doing if you’d asked me a few years ago.
It’s a great moment.
That’s something [Marvel] do so well, the cameos. You know, they give the people what they want. They give them cameos. But they also don’t use them gratuitously. They’re all there for a reason. And I think you really sense that. Or, I hope people sense that, because I think they’re used really cleverly.
Yeah, I think the way it’s phrased in the movie is, giving these characters an ending.
Exactly. All everyone wants in this film, from Cassandra to Wolverine to Gambit, everyone wants an ending. Everyone wants to be understood and to feel like they matter. That was a really nice thing to feel like I was a part of?
Were you on set at the same time as Chris Evans and Jennifer Garner?
I was on the same set as Chris, but I met Jennifer and Channing [Tatum] and Wesley [Snipes], but I don’t think we had a scene [together]. We didn’t actually shoot together.
