Ryan Reynolds has been making young cancer patients' dreams come true on the set of Deadpool.
The actor has been working with the Make-a-Wish Foundation to help young children meet their favourite comic book character.
Tony Acevedo asked Make A Wish Foundation if he could meet Deadpool. I wasn't expecting him to sneak the mask, put on the gloves, smile... and then beat Deadpool about the face, arms and jugular with blazing speed. Tony's next fight is with Hodgkin's Disease. Hodgkin's Disease best be wearing its brown pants. Huge thanks to @makeawishamerica
