Negasonic is 'cooler' in 'Deadpool 2': Brianna Hildebrand

Actress Brianna Hildebrand thinks her "Deadpool" character Negasonic Teenage Warhead will be "cooler" in the movie's 2018 sequel.

Hildebrand said: "I've not yet actually read the script, but I do think she (the character) will be a lot cooler, based on the wardrobe ideas and stuff. I'm very excited. (I've) just (seen) some ideas, nothing that's concrete or anything. But I think it's cool that she's grown and matured and she still has so much of this essence of a punk kid."

She said that she connected with her character so well because she could relate to the "young teenage angst" that Negasonic - real name Ellie Phimister - displays, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Asked what it was like to portray a character who connected so well with many of the 'Deadpool' audience, Brianna told ScreenRant.com: "That was exciting, just because I felt so close to Negasonic in that she reminded me so much of myself. Like young, teenage, angsty like p***ed off Brianna is who she reminded me of.

"It was just like, 'Oh! She's so cute. I get her, you know?' So yeah. That was super exciting to see that people liked her too because it felt like people liked me, or the part of me in there somewhere."
