Marvel Stars Send Messages to Young Super Fan Battling Cancer

The Call

Here's the original call-to-arms that Josh's family put out:

Call Boost

Once the message went out, social media personalities with some influence tried to make sure the request got in front of the right people:

With enough boost, the request was answered by several big Marvel movie stars:

Deadpool

This is what Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds sent to Josh.

Wolverine

The Wolverine himself, Hugh Jackman, also contributed a message to Josh.

Captain America

As one of the most prolifically charitable Marvel stars, Chris Evans made sure to lend his support as well.

Star-Lord

Chris Pratt keeps a running pace with Evans when it comes to big heartfelt moments of charity - so naturally he also had a video to share with Josh.

Spider-Man

Tom Holland has become the face of young Marvel fanboys and girls everywhere - and a class act charity giver in his own right. Having been just a fanboy himself so recently, Holland's praise carries serious weight.

A True Hero

Finally, meet Josh himself. We could all stand to learn a lesson in perseverance and courage from someone like this.

If you want to do something nice for Josh, head to Twitter and throw in some "@" tags to other Marvel Movie stars that you want to see contribute a video to Josh. It's a rare time where social media interactions can actually help us do something good in the world. Don't waste the opportunity.
