John Staub has shared some more Deadpool and Wolverine concept art to Instagram, this time highlighting some early unused costume designs for the villainous Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin).

Though these aren't a million miles away from the character's final look for the movie, they do lean into the comics a little more.

"Early pass on #cassandranova," Staub captioned his post. "There was an emphasis on her fashion so I tried to give her this high fashion look but still is reminiscent of her comic look for this pass. Loved Emma Corrin’s performance."

Nova proved to be a very powerful adversary for Logan and the Merc With a Mouth (though we're not sure why she didn't just do the skinning thing again when the Resistance attacked), but was ultimately defeated when the mismatched pair decided to sacrifice themselves to save the Multiverse.

Of course, the heroes survived (something about an anchor being and... something), but Cassandra probably wasn't so lucky.

In a recent interview, Corrin addressed the possibility of Nova returning, and whether they'd be open to reprising the role down the line.

"I mean, does anyone die in the MCU? I feel like if this film proves anything it's that you can literally bring back absolutely anyone. So maybe one day I'll be pulling a Hugh and pulling over on the side of the road saying, ‘I’ve got to do it!'"

"I felt so much pressure to do this character justice because it's the first time she's been seen on screen," they added. "And yeah, you just want to make the fans happy because these characters mean so much to them. And yeah, I hope I did it justice. And obviously, I'd come back at any moment."

The MPAA gave the movie an official R-rating for: "Strong bloody violence and language throughout, gore, and sexual references."

“Marvel Studios presents their most significant mistake to date - Deadpool & Wolverine," reads the new synopsis. "A listless Wade Wilson toils away in civilian life. His days as the morally flexible mercenary, Deadpool, behind him. When his homeworld faces an existential threat, Wade must reluctantly suit-up again with an even more reluctantlier... reluctanter? Reluctantest? He must convince a reluctant Wolverine to - F*ck. Synopses are so f*cking stupid.”

In addition to Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in the title roles, Deadpool and Wolverine will see Morena Baccarin (Vanessa), Leslie Uggams (Blind Al), Rob Delaney (Peter), Brianna Hildebrand (Negasonic Teenage Warhead) And Shioli Kutsuna (Yukio) return as their respective characters, and they'll be joined by franchise newcomers Emma Corrin (The Crown) and Matthew Macfadyen (Succession), who will play a TV agent and Charles Xavier's evil counterpart, Cassandra Nova.

Shawn Levy directs Deadpool and Wolverine from a script by Ryan Reynolds, Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and Zeb Wells.

Actually , I feel like her look in the final film was more closer to the comics then these…

Still nice though!!.

While the character herself I wish was a bit more fleshed out , I thought Emma Corrin’s playful yet menacing performance elevated this version of Cassandra..

Plus it was also nice to just get a villain that was bad to the bone in this era of trying to humanize or sympathize with villains.

She is known mostly for her safari outfit, they nailed the look but not her personality

its always so insane to see how dimwitted they are choosing other costume designs over these phenomenal designs... she looked not so great in the movie now if you really see what they were about to work with..
I'll never understand most marvel movies choosing the lowest amount of creativity behind a costume or set piece when you compare it to its original concept work.. i feel bad for the artists first & foremost... bizarre
