Character information and casting details for the new Deadpool 2 character Domino has reportedly leaked online.
Domino’s inclusion in the sequel has been rumoured for some time now YouTube channel That Hashtag Show have apparently gotten their hands on a character breakdown.
Listed in the breakdown under Domino’s real name, Neena, the character is described in the following fashion:
“Female. All ethnicities. Late 20s to early 30s. Sexy, lithe, and athletic. She has a witty personality. Neena is a no-nonsense badass who rarely shows her feelings. Highly capable, supremely confident and armored in — well armor — and bullet-proof sarcasm. But beneath her shell she’s still and vulnerable and some soft, beating remnant of her humanity remains intact. In this scene we need to see both sides. When she can’t get what she needs with insults, bluster and threats we need to see some of that vulnerability. It’s hard for her to let down her guard, and in the mercenary community she grew up in showing compassion is almost embarrassing. We should feel like she’d be more comfortable killing Silberman than saying ‘Please’”.

That Hashtag Show also claims to have insider knowledge of casting for Domino. Apparently Sienna Miller and Gugu Mbatha-Raw are out of contention at this point, and Kerry Washington is testing for the role and “is the studio’s lead at this point”.
Of course, with all this information, grains of salt are advised.
