The two recently surprised a deserving fan battling cancer in San Diego and Gwyneth Paltrow took to her Instagram to share some moments from the day, reports E! Online.

"Today @ryanwilcox0303 got a little surprise. Thank you to the incredible #chrisevans and my better work half @robertdowneyjr for being the men you both are. And thank you to the Wilcox family for your hospitality! #ryanstrong," she wrote alongside.

The 43-year-old actress originally posted online earlier in the month , "He absolutely LOVES Captain America and the Avengers and what we want for Ryan if possible is to meet the actors and actresses of the Avengers, especially Chris Evans who plays Captain America."

 

"He isn't doing too well and this would be a major way to boost his spirits and quite frankly be the best moment of his life if he literally got to meet his hero!" she added.

Hence, for this special meet with Ryan Wilcox, Paltrow offered to drive her famous friends down south to meet him.

Reportedly, Evans originally sent 18-year-old boy a video message that was played during a Grossmont High School student assembly. Two weeks later, the Captain America star flew to El Cajon to meet the cancer patient in person.
