After this, how could Ron Perlman not be one of your favorite actors in Hollywood. The 62-year-old actor (god I hope I look that good at 62) donned his Hellboy make-up and costume for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, who reached out to Spectral Motion (responsible for the Hellboy costume) to make a little boy's day very special.
Posted on Spectral Motion's Facebook page:
In the past three weeks, Spectral Motion has been honored to host two wonderful Make-A-Wish children, Caleb and Zachary. Zachary loved his visit for two very special reasons. It was Zachary's wish to meet Hellboy and also to become Hellboy. When the Make-A-Wish Foundation contacted Spectral Motion with this request, Mike thought it would be fantastic to have Ron Perlman reprise his role for the day. Ron loved the idea and donned the makeup once more (with the assistance of Lufeng Qu and Eden Elizalde) and also ordered a Hellboy sized meal of burgers, shakes, and fries for Zachary and his family and the entire Spectral crew to enjoy. Later in the day, Zachary was transformed into Hellboy with the assistance of makeup artists Lufeng Qu and Neil Winn. Both of the Make-A-Wish days were a complete thrill for the families of the children, as well as for the crew at Spectral Motion!
I love the Make-A-Wish Foundation and love this story. It's so great for all parties involved to do things like this, and it's truly heart-warming. And seriously, how cool is it that this little kid Zachary loves Hellboy and wants to meet and become him. Here's some pictures also taken from the facebook page.
