If you’ve been paying attention to the superhero news at all, then you know that the sequel to last years surprise hit, Deadpool, is currently filming. The sequel, just called Deadpool 2 for now, and maybe forever, will see the fourth-wall breaking merc with a mouth having to team up with the no-nonsense, time-traveling mutant Cable (Josh Brolin) for a mission involving both of them. And, as far as we know right now, part of Cable’s cabal will be the luck-altering mutant assassin, Domino, as played by Zazie Beetz.

While not much is known about the film in terms of character relationships or plots, the last couple weeks have been kind to us in that we’ve finally been able to see Beetz in the role, giving us our first looks at the character. In all honesty, we did not fully know what to expect, but we did not expect to immediately fall in love with what we saw. Beetz seems perfect for the role.

In our pics for today, we see Beetz on set with the man himself, Ryan Reynolds, sharing a good laugh between takes. Domino and Deadpool have never really had any romance in the comics, it’s a sure bet Deadpool will be hitting on the assassin in the film, though in all likelihood she only has eyes for Cable. In the comics, both she and Cable have had a tangled romantic history, so it makes sense that we might see that here. Also, in the comics, Domino was one of the founding members of Cable’s team, X-Force, who react to world threats with extreme prejudice.

Extreme.

So while we know very little about the film itself, we can relax knowing that Domino looks awesome.
