Ryan Reynolds continues to champion an important issue.
The Deadpool star was named "Entertainer of the Year" at this year's Critics’ Choice Awards, where he took a moment to highlight two organizations that help children with illness – many of whom find a somewhat unlikely hero in Reynolds’ “merc with a mouth” -- while also paying respect to two young fans who lost their lives.
"I would like to dedicate this honor to the Make-a-Wish foundation, and the Sick Kids Foundation of Toronto," the 40-year-old actor said in his speech. "Two incredible organizations who do so much for so many kids in need."
"And I would also like to dedicate this award to the memories of my friends Connor McGrath and Grace Bowen," he added. "They didn't lose the battle, they started a fight and it's up to us to finish it."
Later in the show, Reynolds won Best Actor in a Comedy for Deadpool, where, unprepared to say anything else, he gave a shoutout to Tom Hanks.
"You're a huge influence on me," Reynolds told the Sully star, who was in attendance. "My two-year-old daughter -- the first full sentence she ever said was, 'There's no crying in baseball.' I'm not kidding."
Not bad first words to have!
