The latest trailer for Deadpool & Wolverine introduces a formidable new villain to the MCU, closely tied to one of the iconic X-Men characters. This bald antagonist is unveiled in a striking scene, emerging from the skull of a deceased giant-sized Ant-Man, which serves as her eerie headquarters. This revelation raises intriguing questions about her identity and role in the storyline.
Who Is The Bald Villain In Deadpool 3?
The first teaser for Deadpool & Wolverine briefly hinted at Nova's inclusion, sparking speculation. The full reveal showcases Cassandra Nova's faithful adaptation from the original Marvel Comics character. Her appearance includes the iconic stiff collar, long tan coat, and bald look, mirroring her in-universe brother Charles Xavier.
It's intriguing that Nova appears in The Void, the space introduced in Loki season 1 and governed by He Who Remains (Jonathan Majors). This placement suggests that she may have been pruned by the TVA and exiled into temporal exile, aligning with her depiction in Marvel Comics as an aberration never meant to exist.
