At the agency, Deadpool also discovers that he needs his arch-enemy, Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), to try to reverse the situation. Annoyed, he goes after the hero, but when he thinks he has everything in hand to solve the problem, the duo’s path crosses with that of Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin, The Crown), the professor’s evil twin sister Charles Xavier.
