Ryan Reynolds sent words of encouragement to a 13-year-old fan following his open-heart surgery. Ivan Hollingsworth of Whitley Bay, England asked Twitter earlier this week for a “Marvel Studios Superhero” to send a message to “our Heart Hero Seb,” his young son who underwent the procedure. None other than Reynolds, who plays Marvel’s Deadpool, answered the call. “You can call me Deadpool, you can call me Green Lantern. Call me anything you’d like. Call me maybe! I don’t mind,” Reynolds said. “I hear you’ve been going through it pal, and it sounds like you’ve got a ton of amazing people who are in your corner and who love you very much.”
Last night I asked your help to get a message from a Marvel Superhero for our son Seb. Recovering from open heart surgery and being so damn brave. The very awesome @VancityReynolds has made our Heart Hero’s day! Thank you so much.🙏♥️🌈 pic.twitter.com/iddqBUNDSe
