Perlman Makes Young Fan’s Wish Come True

Perlman Makes Young Fan’s Wish Come True

July 9, 2012 By Mike Hickerson 4 Comments

Many of us wish actor Ron Perlman would don the Hellboy make-up for a third installment in the movie franchise.

But one young fan got his wish to see Perlman in the famous make-up last week.

Six-year-old Zachary got his wish via the Make a Wish Foundation.   The boy who is undergoing treatment for leukemia said he’d like the chance to spend the day with Hellboy.   Spectral Motion, the company that created the look for both big-screen Hellboy features, heard about the request and asked Perlman if he’d be willing to help out.  Perlman agreed and last week he granted Zachary his wish.

Zachary got to spend time with Perlman as Hellboy and even got a chance to be transformed into Hellboy.

Pictures from the event are posted on the Spectral Motion  Facebook page.

    I always liked Perlman. I think that made me like him a little bit more.
