Among the many things we saw in the Deadpool & Wolverine trailer there is also what seems to be the villain of the film: Cassandra Nova. But who exactly is the character played by Emma Corrin?
Is called Cassandra Nova but we should say Cassandra Xavier insteadbecause the girl is a mutant twin sister of Charles Xavier, Professor X. Created by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely, she appeared for the first time in New X-Men in July 2001.
Let’s say that Cassandra Nova is Professor X’s twin but it is also a mummundrai, that is, a life form born in the astral plane when Charles came into the world in the real one, therefore without a body of its own. Body that he created in the womb trying to kill poor Charles in the womb, who had to put an end to his existence before he was even born. Cassandra is therefore the equal and opposite spirit of Charles, who manages to obtain physical form thanks to the very powerful genetic material of the Earth mutant.
Being the opposite of Professor Cassandra Nova is dedicated to destruction and genocide: he in fact commanded an army of Sentinels to exterminate 16 million mutants present in Genosha, the island created specifically for carriers of the X Gene.
And what are its powers? Being a mummundrai Cassandra Nova had access to the full spectrum of mutant functions latent in Charles Xavier’s genome. This means that he has all of his powers, those that he could have had and those that he could have received. Therefore telepathy, telekinesis, phasing, DNA manipulation, regeneration factor and many other tricks related to these abilities.
In short, It will be very tough for Wade and Logan to face Cassandra Nova. And did you know the character? Tell us your opinion in the comments, in the meantime here is the Easter egg on the creator of Wade Wilson in the Deadpool & Wolverine trailer.
