CleverMarvelcosplayer nails the perfectDeadpool & Wolverinecosplay with a creative take on its main villain.Deadpool & Wolverinenot only brought Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool and Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine to the TVA and the Void, but also introduced the firstX-Menvillain in the MCU: Charles Xavier’s twin sister, Cassandra Nova. Together withMatthew Macfayden’s Agent Paradox, Emma Corrin’s Cassandra Nova put the entire MCU multiverse in danger witha timeline-destroying machine called “the Time-Ripper”. Fortunately for the multiverse, Cassandra Nova and Paradox weren’t exactly on the same page when it came to using the weapon.

OnInstagram, cosplayerkhaosandrashares her Cassandra Nova cosplay for LA Comic Con 2024. Besides an outstanding outfit and makeup work,khaosandra’s Cassandra Nova cosplay stands out due to the addition of a Paradox puppet being pierced by Cassandra’s hand, recreating theDeadpool & Wolverinescene where Cassandra digs through Paradox’s mind in Earth-10005. Check out the full cosplay below:

What Deadpool & Wolverine’s Cassandra Nova Costume Means

Cassandra Nova’s Villainous Superpowers Are Creatively Disgusting

Cassandra Nova’s powers might be some of the most graphic ever put on screen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Abilities such as the Infinity Gauntlet’s reality-shaping power and Kilgrave’s mind control are especially brutal and creative, but none are as repulsing as Cassandra Nova’s ability to probe her enemies' heads with her bare hands.Cassandra’s mind-reading powers are taken to another level thanks toDeadpool & Wolverine’s VFX, which underline the physical discomfort felt by Cassandra’s victims when their facial features shift and morph as Cassandra moves her fingers.

I Can’t Believe The MCU Used The 1 Villain Origin Story I Was Convinced They’d Never Show

The one Marvel comic origin story I genuinely thought the Marvel Cinematic Universe would never use managed to show up in Deadpool & Wolverine.

Deadpool & Wolverinealso makes it clear that Cassandra Nova’s powers shake her enemies' minds to the core. Paradox remained dizzy for a while after Cassandra invaded his mind, and Wolverine seemed to be in extreme pain as he tried to stop Cassandra from going deeper into his memories when he entered her base in the Void. In Paradox’s case, the discomfort must have been double when Cassandra dragged his body on the ground while she held him like a puppet.

Our Take On The Deadpool & Wolverine Cassandra Nova Cosplay

Deadpool & Wolverine Made Cassandra Nova A Big-Name Marvel Villain

While Cassandra Nova is one of the most dangerousX-Menvillains in the source material, she had never been nearly as famous as villains like Magneto, Apocalypse, or the Sentinels before her MCU debut.Deadpool & Wolverinedid the character justice in terms of personality and backstory, and her abilities are remarkably memorable. AfterDeadpool & Wolverine, Cassandra Nova easily ranks among the most powerful and influential antagonists introduced in the Multiverse Saga, and all the cosplays and fan art based on her MCU design prove that.
