Did you notice Psylocke in Deadpool & Wolverine?
Deadpool & Wolverine is a film that is absolutely packed with cameos and Easter eggs — everything from major ones such as Chris Evans as Human Torch, Wesley Snipes as Blade and Henry Cavill as a Wolverine variant to a lot of Deadpool variants — but now, we’re getting a better look at one that fans just might have missed if they weren’t paying close attention. On Instagram, costume illustrator Jonay Bacallado has been sharing various images from his work on Deadpool & Wolverine and now he’s giving fans a better look at Psylocke.
In the post, Bacallado shared the concept art for Psylocke’s final costume in the film, nothing that the style they chose for the character was meant to be a “nod to her comic book portrayal”. Psylocke appeared as one of Cassandra’s henchmen in the Void and was portrayed by Ayesha Hussain.
“Psylocke final costume concept for Deadpool & Wolverine. Psylocke was another of the mutants chosen to be brought back in the Void, as part of Cassandra’s henchmen,” Bacallado wrote. “She had already appeared in X-Men: Apocalypse and The Last Stand. We wanted to give a more utilitarian and tactical vibe to the design but in her iconic color palette and having the strap element as a nod to her comic book portrayal.”
This look at Psylocke is just the latest piece of concept art that Bacallado has shared. He also previously shared looks at Zenpool, Blake Lively’s Ladypool, and more.
