The Greatest Showman’s Hugh Jackman Responds To Viral Video Of Dementia Patient Enjoying The Musical

If that made you cry, you’re not alone, as the tweet’s comments are full of emotional fans. The adorable outing was made even more adorable when Charlie’s grandfather started singing along to “From Now On,” the film’s finale song. In the longer version of the video that CharlieMoose posted on his TikTok page, he explained that his grandfather was diagnosed with second stage vascular dementia. That diagnosis, however, doesn’t keep the duo from being best friends, and the music of The Greatest Showman has helped keep their spirits up. Hugh Jackman’s response even caused the viral video to make the CBS Morning News, turning Charlie’s grandfather into a veritable social media sensation. CharlieMoose thanked everyone for the kind messages and for spreading awareness of vascular dementia.
