Emma Corrin will be the villain

Although it is not known which character they will be playing, Emma Corrin is set to be ‘Deadpool 3’s big bad.

The 28-year-old actress - who played the young Princess Diana in ’The Crown’ - told Empire magazine: “I feel really excited to play a villain. I haven’t done that, and it’s an itch I want to scratch.”

Emma also admitted that she was not a huge watched of Marvel movies, and had to be given a “debrief” on the MCU.

She said: “Hands up, I’m not a Marvel person. I’ve watched ‘Spider-Man’ and ‘Black Panther.’ I was like, ‘Look, you’re gonna have to debrief me into this.’ It’s such an intricate world.”
