Deadpool 2 star Zazie Beetz says she auditioned for the role of young Storm in X-Men: Apocalypse before Alexandra Shipp was cast in the role. Beetz landed her role as Domino in the X-Men/Deadpool universe after breaking out with her Emmy-nominated role as Vanessa "Van" Keefer on Donald Glover's FX series Atlanta. However, seeing as that show didn't even premiere until a few months after Apocalypse hit theaters in 2016, Beetz would have been essentially an unknown when she auditioned to play Ororo Munroe on the big screen.
