Domino of luck in ‘Deadpool 2’

Deadpool comic creator Rob Liefeld is a fan of his character’s movies. He said an artist who wanted to write because I got control of the content of my visuals.

Apart from giving Deadpool and Cable life, Liefeld also created Domino, introducing her in New Mutants #98, the same issue in which Deadpool debuted.

Liefeld says, “Deadpool took everybody down in the course of 10 pages, and Domino took Deadpool down in one page. She’s capable. She can go toe-to-toe with anybody, especially Deadpool and Cable. She is a badass combatant with a unique power. It’s an unknown power of probabilities, kind of a luck power. She’s wonderfully unpredictable in that way.”

Zazie Beetz as the breezy assertive Domino in the second installment of comedy action superhero film, 'Deadpool.'

Also, the American comic book creator was delighted with the casting of Zazie Beetz as Domino. 

“I cheered the day they cast her. I thought, ‘she’s perfect,’ because who else is going to stand toe-to-toe with Ryan Reynolds and take none of his crap? And Zazie as Domino has achieved that. It’s just a great dynamic,” he exclaims.

On the other hand, Beetz feels honored for the positive feedback she’s getting for playing the role. She’s explained who Domino is and what she can be in the future.

“I think that because she’s sort of jaded, she takes it for granted. She’s sarcastic and sardonic. She goes head to head with Deadpool, and doesn’t take his shit. She’s not really a sidekick. She’s a mercenary and does her job and then heads out,” she says.

She further explains that because the character had a tragic past she finds it an interesting juxtaposition. 

“She’s lucky, but to what extent? If everything just works out for you, then what’s the point in even being motivated to do anything? She struggles with that a lot,” she states.

 From 20th Century Fox, Deadpool 2 is now on its second week in Philippine cinemas nationwide.  The movie is available in IMAX screens.
