When it comes to inspiring fans, no one does it quite like Dwayne Johnson<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The superstar loves to send messages to his supporters<\/a> whenever he can, especially when he can send that love to someone in need. Case in point: He just shared a three-minute video made specially for a 3-year-old battling cancer who’s a big fan of Moana<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Posting the heartfelt video on his Instagram on Monday, The Rock shared the story of Hyrum Harris<\/strong>. According to his caption, the child has been “diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia which is complicated by Down Syndrome.” Johnson also revealed that the tot watches Moana<\/em><\/a> several times a day to keep his spirits up, so he decided to take on some spirit-lifting duties himself.<\/p>\n

Johnson started off his message by addressing viewers. “This message is for a little boy out there,” he said. “He’s 3 years old. And this little boy is one of the coolest boys around, and he’s certainly one of the strongest because he is a fighter. And right now this little boy, he’s in the fight of his life.”<\/p>\n

Then the actor spoke directly to Harris.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

As he said, “I heard that you love a movie called Moan<\/em>a<\/em><\/a>, which is crazy, because I love that movie too.” Johnson, as Disney fans will recall, voiced the character of Maui the demi-God<\/a> in the 2016 Disney flick<\/a>, but for the purposes of this video, he pretended that he was just a guy “with a very large head” who sounds a lot like Maui.<\/p>\n

Now, get ready for the gut-punch. The Hobbs & Shaw<\/em> star continued, “And I also heard that you watch Moana<\/em> almost 10 times a day because the character you love, Maui, gives you strength.”<\/p>\n

We’re not crying, you’re crying. Okay, we’re all crying.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

If that last line didn’t get you teary-eyed, Johnson’s caption certainly will.<\/p>\n

“According to Hyrum’s mama, his most important thing to say now is, I STRONG,” Johnson wrote. “Yes you are big man. Yes you are. Hyrum, I know I’m a complete stranger to you – who sounds a lot like your hero, MAUI<\/a> (only with a very large head), but myself along with millions of other strangers who will watch this video are sending you so much love, strength and mana your way. I STRONG. Love, the Rock aka the dude who sounds a lot like Maui<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

As it turns out, Johnson has a lot more to say than just “you’re welcome.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
