The Marvel Universe has plenty of interesting powers, but there are some which just can't be seen. When Deadpool 2 hits theaters next year, the film will house a fan-favorite mutant whose gifts are basically naked to the human eye. However, that doesn't mean 20th Century Fox won't be bring Domino's power onto the big screen.

According to David Leitch, Deadpool 2 has found one unique visual that will help bring Domino's lucky powers to life. The director sat down for an interview with CinemaBlend recently to talk Atomic Blonde, but Leitch did touch upon the Marvel sequel's visual quirks briefly.

"We're having fun with her power, because when you really distill it -- the laws of probability... So I think there's a lot of ways to go with it, and I think we have some really cool visual ideas of how we can demonstrate that," Leitch explained

"There's the Deadpool tone of how you can be self-referential to all powers. So it's going to be fun."

If you need a refresher on Domino's mutant powers, then you are in luck. The character has an odd gift, but it is one that always works in her favor. The mercenary has the mutant ability to telepathically manipulate things within her line of sight so they work in her favor. To put it simply, Domino's gifts give her good luck, but it is not a power she can control at will. The gift is brought out subconsciously, so Domino has to put herself into dangerous situations in order to trigger the mutation.

As for Domino herself, the character is considered a mainstay in the Deadpool canon. The mutant was born as Neena Thurman and created under an experiment known as Project: Armageddon. The experiment aimed to engineer perfect super soldiers by breeding a precognitive mutant, but Domino managed to escape the government's clutches. Over the years, Domino's career as a for-hire mercenary has pitted her against Deadpool time and again, and the mutant has also become one of Cable's de facto love interests.
