I've Never Said This Before With Tommy DiDario

Brianna Hildebrand of Deadpool & Wolverine

This week, Tommy is joined by actress Brianna Hildebrand who reprised her fan-favorite role as Negasonic Teenage Warhead in Deadpool and Wolverine starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. The film is currently the 6th highest opening of all-time at the US box office and has become the most talked about film this summer. Between having the power of generating explosions from her body, to being effortlessly stoic and cool, to representing a community that feels seen through one of the first queer superheroes, it’s safe to say that the world wants more Negasonic Teenage Warhead. Today, Brianna opens up about how she was only sent pages for the scenes that she was in, what her very first day on-set for Deadpool was like, how Ryan Reynolds helped make her feel less nervous, booking a dream role for her very first movie, her favorite moments for her character throughout all three films, admitting to Ryan that he was her childhood crush, fighting the urge to crack-up when filming scenes opposite her co-stars, getting to work with the iconic Wolverine, if she hopes to play her character in more installments of Deadpool or a spin-off, what being thrust into the spotlight was like after the first Deadpool was released, how she protects her peace and stays grounded, and learning to put other people’s opinions aside to focus on the things that truly matter.
