There’s no better way to use fame and influence when you’re a celebrity than reaching out to fans that you’ve made an impact on and personally connecting with them, especially when they are going through an incredible struggle, which is exactly what Ryan Reynolds did for a young fan who drew a lot of inspiration from Deadpool .
Jaidant Quinn, a medical student and a burn survivor, shared this amazing ‘Deadpool’ cosplay to his Instagram account.
“It would make my dream come true if @vancityreynolds got to see this post! I learned to do the splits just for this photo. Deadpool has honestly made me way more confident,” he wrote alongside the image of himself in a Deadpool costume doing the splits .

“Anyone who has read or watched anything about Deadpool, knows his face and body are pretty messed up,” Jaidant wrote.
“It’s so easy to cover up who I am, and to give In to despair. Deadpool just makes me not care about that stuff and show my true self. This is me, and I’m not Ashamed about it,” Jaidant finished his caption.
Ryan made his dreams come true after all by commenting on the post.
“This made my YEAR,” he wrote in a comment. “Can’t even describe what this post means to me.”
Ryan went on to joke that he, too, can do the splits, but he can only do them once a year, and hospital staff need to be nearby waiting.
Jaidant was overjoyed.
“You made this so worth it,” Jaidant wrote. “I HOPE YOU CONTINUE TO INSPIRE SO MANY OTHERS!” He also specified that he was a huge fan, which Ryan probably already knew.
We love to see celebrities making such an impact on their fans!
