Deadpool went on to become the most successful R-rated film in cinema history, thanks to its box office haul of $783.1 million.
The revelation from Rob Leifeld to ComicBook.com that Zazie Beats doesn’t just go toe-to-toe with Ryan Reynolds, but might actually exceed him, only adds even more credence to her casting.
In fact, she has the exact sort of nonchalant charisma that Deadpool 2 requires, especially in the wake of the huge success of its predecessor.
Anyone who has seen Zazie Beats in Atlanta knows that there’s an effortless presence and allure to her that will lend itself perfectly to both the comic book genre, and a film of this magnitude.
