'Deadpool 2': Leslie Uggams Returning as Blind Al
The scene-stealing actress is ready to take on Ryan Reynolds once more.
Leslie Uggams is coming back for round two.
The actress will reprise her role as Blind Al in Deadpool 2, Heat Vision has confirmed. The news was first reported by Blackfilm.com, which spoke to the actress about returning opposite Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool's roommate.
Uggams lent an unexpected level of prestige to last year's Deadpool and her Blind Al became an instant favorite, with her and Reynolds establishing strong chemistry that lent itself to some very funny bickering.
