In the caption, he humouredly mentioned that shortly after the photo was taken, his son had slammed his face into the flaming candles and that he is now ready to be cast as Deadpool.

The 'Deadpool' actor did not miss the tweet and maintaining his charming wit tweeted back, "Weird. My daughter JUST stabbed me in the right eye. (She's not a ninja, but she IS a bit of a dick) Point is, we can finally trade roles... (Happy Birthday Bubba!)" Tweeples are now rooting for a 'Thorpool' A user tweeted, "Thorpool the hero we all need"

Making a wild guess, another user tweeted, "Deadpool and Thor speaking confirms Disney is making a new movie with the X-men and the avengers. @ me I'm lonely" "deadpool 3, can't wait to see you star in it," read another tweet.
