Many fans were disappointed that Vanessa (Morena Baccarin) didn't get to assume her Copycat persona from the comics in the first Deadpool movie, so will the sequel rectify this?

Prediction: Given how little we've seen of Vanessa in the marketing, this is hopefully disguising the fact that she'll become Copycat during the movie and join the X-Force alongside Wade.

Considering how much criticism the first film received for basically turning an intriguing potential femme fatale into a generic damsel-in-distress love interest, giving her a super-powered boost would be a fantastic apology to fans.

That said, it's definitely not certain, and given Baccarin's commitment to TV show Gotham, it's entirely possible she has just a small role in the movie due to those ever-frustrating scheduling conflicts. The latter is in fact far more likely than the former, sadly.
