KARACHI: Sons of Anarchy star Ron Perlman made a young boy's wish come true when he donned the “Hellboy” costume and full makeup during a special visit. 
 
Special effects company Spectral Motion, known for their work on blockbuster film franchises such as “The Fantastic Four”, Hellboy and “X-Men”, went on location with the Make-A-Wish Foundation and worked some movie magic to make a kid’s dream come true.
 
Six-year-old Zachary had expressed to Make-A-Wish his desire "to meet and become Hellboy." The boy is undergoing treatment for cancer.
 
Perlman then underwent the four-hour makeup application procedure it takes to become Hellboy and shocked a delighted Zachary, who later got the opportunity to become a pint-sized Hellboy himself.
 
The visit was the second time in the past three weeks Spectral Motion has opened its doors to Make-A-Wish children. 
 
Another fan, Caleb, got firsthand looks at the animatronics behind some of the studio’s well-known creatures, which also have appeared in “X-Men: The Last Stand” and “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer”.
