Janelle Monae Reportedly The New Frontrunner For Domino In DEADPOOL 2
The hunt for an actress to play Domino in the highly anticipated Deadpool sequel continues, this time with the emergence of yet another unexpected name! Hit the jump for the latest on the casting hunt.
With so much excitement surrounding who will play Cable in Deadpool 2, you'd be forgiven for forgetting that Domino has also yet to be cast. Very little is known about how the character will factor into the sequel, but chances are we'll see her return in X-Force and that she could end up replacing Morena Baccarin as the franchise's new female lead. Now, another rumoured name has surfaced.
While MacKenzie Davis and Kerry Washington have previously been named the frontrunners for the role, the video below claims that it's now Janelle Monae who has emerged as the studio's favourite.
Monae is best known for being a singer-songwriter, though her acting credits include Hidden Figures, Moonlight, and American Dad. She's very much an up and coming actress then and she must have done something to impress the studio. Would you guys like to see her the actress in Deadpool 2?
