Hello, my fellow Bollywood gossip aficionados! It’s your favorite snoop, Bollywood Newshound Nisha, here to spill some juicy tidbits from the glitzy world of Hindi Film and its glamorous stars. Buckle up, because today’s story has more twists than a Karan Johar plot! 🎬
Warning: Spoilers ahead for Deadpool & Wolverine!
Oh, the Marvel universe! Where alternate realities collide, bald women rule, and pre-teen superheroes almost become reality. Yes, we’re talking about Kidpool. But you didn’t know that this pint-sized hero almost had a very familiar face, did you? Let’s unravel this behind-the-scenes drama and find out who almost donned the red-and-black suit.
Enter Walker Scobell, the young sensation who wowed us all alongside Ryan Reynolds in The Adam Project. This 13-year-old dynamo, who could recite Reynolds’ iconic "f* Wolverine" monologue from Deadpool 2 by heart, was this close to becoming Kidpool. Fans and filmmakers alike saw him as the perfect fit. The excitement was palpable; it was like waiting for a Salman Khan movie to release on Eid! 🎉
But hold your horses! Director Shawn Levy spilled the beans in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. Apparently, Mother Nature had other plans. Scobell hit puberty and transformed into a taller, deeper-voiced version of himself. Levy lamented, "If Walker Scobell had stopped evolving right before puberty, he absolutely would’ve been Kidpool." Ah, the tyranny of adolescence! 😅
But fret not, dear readers, for Kidpool still made a splash, albeit with a twist! The role was voiced by none other than Inez, the adorable 7-year-old daughter of Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively. Her youthful charm brought Kidpool to life in a way that was both unexpected and delightful. Sometimes destiny has a sense of humor, right? 😂
And wait, there’s more! Inez wasn’t the only Reynolds-Lively kid to make it into the film. Their son, Olin, played the role of Babypool. Talk about a family affair! 💖
But that’s not all, folks. The Deadpool Corps lineup is as celebrity filled as a Bollywood awards night. We’ve got Nathan Fillion as the zombie-floating-head Deadpool, Blake Lively as the sultry Lady Deadpool, and Matthew McConaughey as the charming Cowboy Deadpool. It’s a carnival of Deadpools!
As for our almost-Kidpool, Walker Scobell, he’s taken a different path. He’s the new Percy Jackson in the series adaptation of Rick Riordan’s beloved books. From almost-Kidpool to Percy Jackson, this kid’s career is soaring like a Shah Rukh Khan movie at the box office! 🚀
One has to wonder, though, if given the choice between Kidpool and Percy Jackson, which role would Scobell choose?
Nisha’s Nutshell:
In the whimsical world of Bollywood and beyond, where careers are as unpredictable as a monsoon in Mumbai, sometimes missing a role can lead to even bigger opportunities. So, remember, darlings, whether it’s puberty or destiny, never underestimate the power of a plot twist! 😜
Happy gossiping, my lovelies! Until next time! 💋
