A woman on Instagram posted a picture of her son with this plea to Robert Downey Jr. 

This is my son Daniel and he has cystic fibrosis, he is seven years old and wants nothing more to meet his idol Robert Downey Jr (aka iron man) as he has managed to get past the bullies he faces from day to day by telling them the he too has a extra special port in his chest much like iron man has his arc reactor, I am sharing this in hope that mr stark (as Daniel calls him out of the suit) could find a way to contact me on here as Daniel could really do with a little lift at the moment after a child at school has told him that all children with cf die. If this reaches him and Daniel could get a reply I hope that it could help him through his stay in hospital as it is starting to take its toll on him.

Robert Downey Jr. took notice and responded in the tiger suit above with this message: 

Mr. Stark here. This is for Daniel (@envy_coatings) who was having a rough day recently. When I’m in the dumps, I’ve found this little getup to be helpful. P.S. Would you like to come to the LA premiere of Captain America: Civil War as my guest? If so, have your people call my people. All the best.

Daniel's mom put a video up in response. He seems pretty excited about the invitation: 

The post-screening results are maddeningly enthusiastic. Full-on amped. Check out some of the reactions surfacing on Twitter. You'll be quick to see, the hype is too real right now..

New Iron Man action-figure from Marvel is creepily real. Please make it stop staring at me. -JH

Robert Downey Jr gave us a look at his first couple of days on the Avengers: Age of Ultron set. Let's hope he doesn't get in trouble.

The kind of moments that truly warm the heart right here.

The 3D printed robotic arm from The Collective Project was given to this young man free of charge from the family. It only makes sense, that robotics expert, Iron Man would be there to present it.
