Ryan Gosling on Barbie: "Best script I've ever read"
The Gray Man's promo tour continues to be more about a movie that won't come out for another year

Sure, The Gray Man premieres on Netflix today, but the Ryan Gosling movie that everyone can’t stop talking about won’t be seen for another year: Barbie. Since the first images of Margot Robbie as the titular doll and Gosling as Ken were shared earlier this year, fans have been desperate for any information about director Greta Gerwig’s follow up to Little Women. Apparently, a spy thriller co-starring Chris Evans and boasting a whopping nine action set pieces just can’t compete.
The Blade Runner 2049 actor dropped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to talk about his new movie, but the host couldn’t resist skipping ahead to ask Gosling about the first reactions to his bleached blond Ken look.
“I was surprised how some people were kind of clutching their pearls about my Ken as though they ever thought about Ken for a second before this,” Gosling says. “They never played with Ken, nobody plays with Ken.”
Is this underdog spirit and willingness to play second fiddle a key part of “Ken-ergy”? Only time will tell.
