If one may recall, Deepika Padukone's debut international film XXX: Return of Xander Cage had hardly hit theatre screens that its director D.J. Caruso announced in public that he will be casting the Padmaavat actress in the sequel to the film. However, Deepika on her part kept insisting in all her interviews that she doesn't like to talk about a film until she has given her nod to the script or has even had a chance to go through one.
In the mean-time Caruso kept the hopes of Deepika's fans (of seeing their favorite actress in another XXX movie) alive, when he sent out the following tweets at three different occasions.
I have every intention to have @deepikapadukone in the film. We are finishing new script and I will be reaching out very soon!

Now, the director has one again tweeted that Deepika is very much a part of the fourth edition of the XXX movie while announcing the cast for it. Take a look:
Yes!

However, an official confirmation on Deepika's end on whether or not she will be reprising her role of Serena Unger, the huntress assassin is still awaited.
