In the midst of all the excitement surrounding Marvel's latest blockbuster, Deadpool & Wolverine, there is a special tribute that may have gone unnoticed by some. Actor and comedian Rob Delaney's late son, Henry, is honored in the film's credits with a simple dedication: "For Henry Delaney."
Rob, who is known for his role as Peter in the Deadpool franchise, lost his son to brain cancer at the young age of two in 2018. Despite the devastating loss, Rob continued to work in the film industry and joined the star-studded cast of Deadpool 3, led by Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.
In the film, Rob portrays Peter, a member of Deadpool's X-Force strike team who is just a regular guy and not a mutant like the rest of the team. This character first appeared in Deadpool 2 and has since become a close friend of the foul-mouthed superhero, Wade Wilson.
The touching tribute to Henry Delaney at the end of the film's credits serves as a reminder that, even in the midst of all the action and R-rated humor, there is a heartwarming message of love and remembrance. For Rob and his wife Leah, the loss of their son has been a difficult journey, but they have found solace in the birth of their fourth child just months after Henry's passing.
In a recent interview, Rob shared that he hopes to one day buy the home where Henry passed away so that he can "crawl in there and die" in the same room where his son was born. He also revealed that he still talks to Henry and feels a strong connection to him despite his passing.
While the loss of Henry will always be a part of Rob's life, he continues to work and share his talents with the world. And for many fans of Deadpool & Wolverine, his performance as Peter will always hold a special place in their hearts as a tribute to a beloved son and a reminder of the fragility of life.
Directed by Shawn Levy, the film follows Wade Wilson as he is recruited by the Time Variance Authority to help protect the multiverse. His mission leads him to search for his idol, Wolverine, and the film has received praise from critics for its action-packed, humorous, and heartfelt storyline.
With a certified fresh rating of 80% on Rotten Tomatoes, Deadpool & Wolverine is a must-see for any Marvel fan.
