Deadpool 2: Domino Casting Shortlist Includes Lizzy Caplan
While the sequel doesn’t yet have a firm release date, development is moving right along on Deadpool 2, and director Tim Miller and the film’s producers are now looking towards casting a key female role. Sources close to the production exclusively tell Collider that testing has begun for the character of Domino, and the actresses under consideration include Lizzy Caplan (Masters of Sex), Mary Elizabeth Winstead (10 Cloverfield Lane), Sienna Miller (American Sniper), Sofia Boutella (Star Trek Beyond), Stephanie Sigman (Spectre), and Sylvia Hoeks(Overspel). There could be other actresses included in the mix, but sources tell us that at least these six performers have tested or are going to test for the role.

Like Deadpool, Domino is a mercenary and a mutant, and her powers include the ability to initiate random telekinetic acts that turn probability in her favor. Additionally, she has a close connection to the mutant Cable, as her comics history found her becoming a partner, confidante, and lover of the mutant and frequent frenemy of Deadpool. It was previously confirmed during the post-credits sequence forDeadpool that Cable will appear in Deadpool 2, so the inclusion of Domino in the sequel as well makes sense.

This shortlist is a mix of established actresses and up-and-comers. Folks like Winstead, Caplan, and Miller have long resumes and at least some experience with action, while Sigman portrayed a Bond girl in Spectre, starred on the FX drama series The Bridge, and stars on the Netflix series Narcos. Netherlands native Hoeks, meanwhile, is poised to make her major American debut in Denis Villeneuve’s sequel Blade Runner 2049.

With word that testing for the role of Domino has begun, we can also safely assume that Miller and Co. have either already found their actor to play Cable, are mulling over a shortlist of actors, or are about to initiate a search.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead (10 Cloverfield Lane, Scott Pilgrim vs The World)

Lizzy Caplan (Masters of Sex, Now You See Me 2)

Sienna Miller (American Sniper)

Sofia Boutella (Star Trek Beyond, Kingsman)

Stephanie Sigman (Spectre)
