'Deadpool 2' Update: Atlanta Star Zazie Beetz Casts As Domino

The "Deadpool" sequel teaser, featuring Ryan Reynolds, left many fans excited to talk about "Deadpool 2". Out of nowhere, Reynolds posted some images of some dominos spelling out the name Zaze Beetz, which pertains to "Atlanta" star, Zazie Beetz.

Who Is Zazie Beetz?

Beetz is known as an intelligent comedian and drama princess, which would make her a great fit to play as Domino. She is born in Berlin, Germany. The actress stars in Donald Glover's Golden Globe-winning new series "Atlanta" and "Glover".

Domino's Character

Domino, also known as Neena Thurman, first appeared in the X-Force comics in 1992.

Neena was one of the kids born in the U.S. government's Project: Armageddon, which is intended to create the perfect genetically-engineered weapon that uses an extrasensory perception. One of only two survivors from numerous lab test subjects, Neena was stolen away by Beatrice's cult, the Armijo suits, and delivered to a Chicago priest, until her mutant powers manifested.

She can initiate telekinetic acts that affect the probability in her favor, thus, giving her enemies 'bad luck'.

Upcoming Deadpool 2 Film

The producers are working hard on the new X-Men, like X-Force Domino, together with the time-traveling mutant partner, Cable, and other main characters.

The Deadpool sequel is currently in pre-production. It will also be directed by "John Wick" contributor David Leitch, who took over the director's chair after Tim Miller dropped it last October, due to artistic differences with Reynolds. The sequel is currently in pre-production and Reynolds will return with writer Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese.

"Deadpool 2" is expected to hit theaters on March 2, 2018.
