Tony Acevedo is battling Hodgkin's disease (also known as Hodgkin's lymphoma). Acevedo was also able to embody his favourite comic book character by wearing the Deadpool mask and gloves, reported Variety.
"Tony Acevedo asked Make A Wish Foundation if he could meet Deadpool," Reynolds captioned an Instagram photo.
"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."
"Deadpool", which also stars Ed Skrein as Ajax, Morena Baccarin as Copycat and TJ Miller as Weasel, hits theatres on February 12, 2016.
