Ryan Gosling

When the first photos of Ryan Gosling as a shirtless Ken doll in Greta Gerwig's upcoming Barbie movie dropped, the internet went understandably wild.

Gosling got the offer for "Barbie" and then discovered a Ken doll face down in the dirt.

Gotta do it for the Kens. Nobody plays with the Kens.” As recently revealed by Variety, Gosling and Robbie had pay parity on “Barbie” and both earned $12.5 million salaries. I walk out in the backyard [after getting the offer] and, do you know where I found Ken?” Gosling said.

While he initially needed time to think about his role in "Barbie," Gosling found his answer in the backyard — in the form of a dirty Ken doll abandoned by ...

It’s a lot to be Ken, but we need to talk about Ken at some point.” “It’s hard,” said Gosling. “A lot of people don’t know this, but George Lucas based The Force on Kenergy. It’s always been there. “Face down in the mud next to a squished lemon.”

And not even one of the cool ones,” the actor reflected.

Nonetheless, fans are very excited about Greta Gerwig (Lady Bird, Little Women) being attached as the writer and director of Barbie, and can’t wait to see Margot Robbie playing the titular character. Barbie could live exciting lives being an astronaut, a fashionista, or even the president – whereas Ken was only featured in stories where Barbie needed a love interest. They never played with Ken!”

Rounding up our favorite late-night clips of the week, featuring Ryan Gosling, Jenny Slate, Dana Carvey, Joe Pera, and Nikki Glaser.

And it’s this weird intensity that he brings to a quick-change sketch on The Tonight Show. He and Fallon go between the couch and the set of their old, canceled cop shows. But Pera is with him every step of the way. This was a momentous week in late night, as it saw the sun set on the Bodega Boys. Desus and Mero broke up — now who’s gonna get custody of Anna Kendrick? The show was always welcome on the lineup because it brought a cavalier attitude to the news and more ass-eating jokes than you could shake an ass at. His Trump is garglier than most, and his Biden is very pleading. Other ringers this week included Kerry Washington and RuPaul (and Desus is slated for later this summer). But Carvey played to his greatest strength: presidential impressions. Vulture already collected a list of bangers from the boys, but I want to shout out a few more: that time Denzel Washington was on the show and mostly talked about train stops, John Legend’s song about (you guessed it) eating ass, and when Mero cyberbullied Tucker Carlson on behalf of Chris Hayes. They will be missed.

After Brenden Fraser's “Brenaissance” became a thing, now there's Ryan Gosling's Barbie-oriented “Kenaissance.”

Until then, you can watch Brendan Fraser in Doom Patrol with your HBO Max subscription. Apparently Ryan Gosling fans think the Canadian actor playing life in plastic will certainly be fantastic.

Gosling appeared on a segment of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" on Thursday, speaking to the host about his "Barbie" origin story.

'The Gray Man' tries something different: no gizmos, no gadgets, just a great watch.

His watch in The Gray Man is packed with similar symbolism, according to Gosling. Originally, Six was supposed to wear a different watch. In Drive, where Gosling helms a getaway car, his character straps a watch on the wheel of his car because “he didn’t trust whatever clock was in the car,” the actor said. . “Before every film a prop person comes up to you and asks what kind of watch your character wears,” he said. The Kingsmen shot darts out of their Bremonts. And when they’re not helping the wearer out of a bind, watches are critical to maintaining a suave, elegant, and tasteful Spy Vibe. “[Watches are important to spies] because every second is a life or death moment in the world of these movies,” Gosling told a group of reporters at an event the week before the movie’s premiere. Now, in The Gray Man, Ryan Gosling’s character Sierra Six is a new spy with a new type of watch: a Tag Heuer Carrera Three Hands. The first Kingsman movie even scored a watch collaboration, with the brand Bremont, out of the gate.
