Negasonic Teenage Warhead

Ellie Phimister, aka Negasonic Teenage Warhead, is a mutant introduced not long ago in the comic books – in 2001’s New X-Men #115. And the apparently new Marvel Comics character is played by an apparently newcomer actress Brianna Hildebrand in next year’s Valentine’s Day weekend release Deadpool. This will be not just the live-action cinematic debut of Negasonic Teenage Warhead but her debut in any three-dimensional media – video games, television and film.

While talking to Screen Rant, Brianna revealed that her mind-reader character is the sidekick of Colossus in the February 12, 2016 release. According to the actress, her Negasonic Teenage Warhead and Ryan Reynolds’ lead character have an ‘interesting relationship’ in the movie which is ‘kind of like that brother and sister’. She added:

“They are on the same side. But they kind of butt heads a lot of the time. That’s how I would explain it, he’s my brother. Me and my brother get along like that.”

Brianna also revealed that Negasonic Teenage Warhead’s ability to see the future won’t contribute as much in Deadpool as her ‘power to explode’. She explained:

“She runs and explodes at things. She’s like a warhead. So she detonates, I guess would be how to explain it.”
