Emma Corrin has ‘broken’ all the summer style rules of late (think all things crochet, bubble hem dresses and ballet flats), if their latest goth-esque read carpet is anything to go by.
On Sunday, the British actor attended the premiere of Deadpool & Wolverine in Berlin and wore a pair of stockings, black high heels and a black silky mini dress from Saint Laurent’s AW24 collection, styled with Cartier jewellery.
The look was pulled together with a thick black waist belt, and Corrin wore their short black pixie cut in an intentionally messy do, with neutral-hued make-up.
The day prior Corrin and their co-stars paused press duties to watch the Euros 2024 quarter-finals match between Netherlands and Turkey at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.

The Crown star shared a photo of the stadium in Germany alongside their co-stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.
In a recent interview with British GQ, Corrin revealed that they requested a personal trainer to help them transform into their villainous character Cassandra Nova for Marvel’s Deadpool and Wolverine, but the studio rejected their proposal.
‘This is funny because I did ask if I could have a personal trainer and they said no,’ Corrin said. ‘They said I don’t have to undergo any physical training. I was so ready to undergo a huge transformation but they were like, “That’s absolutely not required of you. Please stand down.” I tried.’
Director Shawn Levy previously told Empire magazine that he had wanted Corrin to star in the film after he saw them perform in a stage production of Orlando last year. In response, Corrin revealed they’d need a crash course in Marvel if they were to take on a role.
‘Hands up, I’m not a Marvel person,’ Corrin told the publication. ‘I’ve watched Spider-Man and Black Panther. I was like, “Look, you’re gonna have to debrief me into this.” It’s such an intricate world. There’s so much to it, it’s an absolute mindf*ck. All the language and the Easter eggs, and this person is related to that person who did this, and this person came back and this person’s dead… it’s amazing.
‘I really understand why it means as much as it does to so many people,’ Corrin continued. ‘It’s a phenomenon, and I feel really lucky to be part of it. Especially Deadpool, because I love the fact that it’s self-aware, and critical of its own inner-workings.’
Deadpool and Wolverine is out in cinemas on July 26.
