March 9, 2017
Deadpool star and producer Ryan Reynolds has revealed on Twitter that Zazie Beetz from Atlanta TV series has joined the cast of Deadpool 2 as Domino!
According to Comingsoon.net, Domino’s mutant ability allows her to manipulate probability in her favor, making her a lethal mercenary just like Wade Wilson.
Deadpool 2 will also introduce Cable, the time-traveling son of the X-Men’s Cyclops. The character has one of the comic book medium’s more complicated origin stories, so it remains to be seen what will go into the backstory of the big screen Cable. The role is currently being cast and, while rumors have been quite prevalent, an actor has not yet been selected for the role.
Beetz is best known for her role as Van in FX’s critically acclaimed “Atlanta,” playing Donald Glover’s best friend and the mother of his child. She’s currently in the Bart Freundlich’s new film, Wolves.
John Wick‘s David Leitch is directing Deadpool 2 from a screenplay by the returning “real heroes here,” screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. Reynolds is again serving as a producer on Deadpool 2 alongside X-Men franchise caretakers Simon Kinberg and Lauren Shuler Donner.
