Pasco County, Florida, Fire Rescue put together the birthday surprise for Castle, who turned 8 on May 10, 2020.
Castle was diagnosed in October 2019 with a Wilms tumor and still has at least a month left of chemotherapy.
Cena’s efforts of goodwill aren’t out of character, though.
Cena has granted over 650 wishes from the Make a Wish organization. The DOLITTLE voice actor has also highlighted his deep appreciation for health care workers during this pandemic.
The actor and wrestler also appears in multiple family-friendly movies.
On the red carpet for FERDINAND, Cena compared himself to the main character, “[FERDINAND] liked to use his strength to help people and I can relate to that.”
Take a look at the video below.
Cena also starred in the very family-friendly movie PLAYING WITH FIRE in 2019.
