This was when the actress shared that she will not be appearing in the movie."Well I’m actually not in 'Deadpool 3,' so I don’t know what they’re doing [about improvisation]. I’m assuming they’re probably taking a pause. I’m excited to watch it," she saidThis confirmation left fans disappointed as they speculated Beetz's return as the lucky mutant Domino.Fans are disappointed as Zazie Beetz announces her absence from Deadpool 3Zazie Beetz will not return as Domino (Image via 20th Century Studios)The news about Zazie Beetz not being part of the upcoming film soon became the talk of the town.

Rumors suggest that Wolverine is supposed to have an equal role to Deadpool in the film, if not bigger. So, adding Domino into a film that’s already so stacked wouldn’t have done justice to anyone.Her involvement could have robbed other bigger characters of their screen time as well. By the looks of it, the Deadpool threequel seems to giving a sendoff to all the OG X-Men characters. So, Domino would not have been a good fit in such a setup!Deadpool 3 is set to release on May 3, 2024.
