While Zenpool was newly created for Deadpool & Wolverine, Babypool is a character we've seen on the page. While this pint-sized Variant didn't have a whole lot of screentime, he still makes a lasting impression.
"Ryan [Reynolds] and Shawn [Levy] envisioned more of a toddler for the character, with diapers and all but able to move around by himself," Bacallado explains. "It was such fun to do a tiny hero suit. Mayes came up with the idea of feeding bottles instead of guns."
"We designed him in full detail and finishings, just like any other hero in the film. Babypool [was played by] Olin, [Ryan's] 1-year-old son, as credited in the film."
The Deadpool Corps has been a hit with fans so we'd be shocked if Wade Wilson doesn't eventually lead them into battle against Doctor Doom's army of Doombots when the next Avengers movies roll around...

Back in July, we concluded our Deadpool & Wolverine review - which you can read by clicking here - by saying, "A contender for the best superhero movie ever, Deadpool & Wolverine is two hours of Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman proving they were born to play these roles and, crucially, be part of the MCU. It’s a f***ing masterpiece."
