Emma Corrin Asked for a ‘Deadpool 3’ Trainer to ‘Undergo a Huge Transformation,’ but the Studio Said No and ‘That’s Absolutely Not Required of You’


Emma Corrin wanted to undergo a huge physical transformation for "Deadpool and Wolverine," but the studio rejected her request for a trainer.

Emma Corrin revealed in a video interview with British GQ that they requested a personal trainer in order to transform into the villainous Cassandra Nova for Marvel’s “ Deadpool and Wolverine,” but the studio rejected their proposal. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Corrin said that Ryan Reynolds and director Shawn Levy told them that Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds” villain Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz) was top of mind when the duo envisioned their “Deadpool and Wolverine” villain. Levy previously told Empire magazine that he courted Corrin to star in the film after he saw them perform in a stage production of “Orlando” last year.
