Darlene is going places! Dominique Fishback from 'The Deuce' has been cast as the female lead for the Jamie Foxx and Joseph Gordon-Levitt starring sci-fi movie. The untitled film will be produced by Netflix, and news of the team-up with Foxx and Gordon-Levitt was announced just a week ago. 

Fishback plays the character of Donna 'Darlene', a street-savvy hooker who loves to read, in 'The Deuce'. While a lot of the show's focus is on Maggie Gyllenhaal's character Candy, Darlene's presence does not go unnoticed. She's full of surprises and incredibly smart, even though everyone just assumes she's gullible because she's a hooker. She's quietly ambitious and keeps her plans away from her ruthless pimp CC (Gary Carr). She wants to make a life for herself someday but sadly has made no progress so far.
