Emma Corrin's 'Deadpool Wolverine' promotional style was inspired by Katharine Hepburn and Marlene Dietrich.
The 28-year-old actor and their stylist Harry Lambert went for a "modern Old Hollywood" influence as they planned out Emma's looks for the press tour.
Emma told US Vogue: "We looked at Katharine Hepburn and Marlene Dietrich. That’s where the conversation started and then they morphed into their own thing, as they normally do with me and Harry.
“Because of the size of this tour and the scale of the project, we knew that we needed to start early. Mainly, I feel like we just wanted to do our usual fun, quite wild thing, but take it a step further because it’s Marvel.
"I love Harry and we very much have a shared sense of style, and a shared sense of risk-taking. We get enjoyment out of being fun and a bit unexpected with looks."
Harry explained that he and Emma also took inspiration from Emma's supervillain alter-ego Cassandra Nova but did not want to "go full into that world too much".
Harry said: "Although there were a few nods there, we tried to not go full into that world too much. I think it was more about an essence rather than a direct reference.
"[It] works for some people, but I think you can end up getting a little bit deep into a movie. It doesn’t necessarily always have to link to the character that you’re portraying. The essence of Cassandra can come out in the makeup, hair, and energy rather than being too literal.
"The looks really had a slight gothic-ness to them, a slight evil, a slight darkness to them."
