Chatting about the Multiverse of Madness

You've seen the smooth-talking Nicepool, the butt-kicking Ladypool, the adorable Dogpool, and last but not least, Kidpool. It's like a Deadpool-themed party in the multiverse!
Almost Kidpool: Walker Scobell's Lost Role
Know the lad who played a younger version of Ryan Reynolds in The Adam Project, Walker Scobell? He's a huge Deadpool fan who even knows a particular spicy monologue from the movie. So, it's no wonder he was all set to be Kidpool. Unfortunately, nature had other plans. As puberty hit, Walker grew taller and his voice deepened, making him unsuitable for the character.
In a recent chat with Entertainment Weekly, Levy shared, “It was Walker's dream. Ryan and I had to explain to him why he couldn't be Kidpool. But he was very understanding.” Life in Hollywood can indeed be unpredictable.
A Family Affair: Kidpool Voiced by Inez Reynolds
In an interesting twist, our pint-sized version of Deadpool, Kidpool, was finally voiced by none other than Inez, the 7-year-old daughter of Reynolds and Blake Lively. It's always a delight when a family comes together on-screen, even if it's just their voices!
