Spider-man stars children's hospital
It turns out that the stars of 'Spider-Man' are do-gooders in real life, too. Some of the cast members paid a visit to the Children’s Hospital in Los Angeles surprising some of their youngest fans.

We all love Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Jake Gyllenhaal, but just in case you wanted to love them a little more, the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles posted a video of them greeting children after a special screening of Spider-Man: Far From Home.

Spider-man himself, Tom Holland, proved he knows another way he can use his powers for good. Donning his Spidey suit the actor performed flips and tricks for the kids while Gyllenhaal, who joins the franchise as Mysterio, also came in costume.

The surprise visit came after an exclusive screening of the Marvel film followed by a Q&A with the cast. 

The touching video shows the actors in full superhero attire to visit each patient in their hospital bed.

“We’re gonna catch Mysterio!” Gyllenhaal jokes at the beginning of the video, while Holland trails close behind with a baby in tow.

Later on, a young fan confesses his love for Holland (or at least his power-wielding character), saying, “I love you, and that you shoot webs.”

It’s heartwarming to see actors, particularly those that play superheroes, do hospital visits. The smiles on the kids’ faces are genuine, and it must mean the world to them that Spider-Man came to visit them while they’re in the hospital.

Spider-Man: Far From Home premieres July 3. Directed by Jon Watts, it also stars Samuel L. Jackson, Cobie Smulders and Jon Favreau.
