RYAN GOSLING ALMOST DID NOT DO BARBIE FOR THIS REASON....
January 2024 - Santa Barbara, CA: Known for his dramatic and comedic prowess, Ryan Gosling's cinematic journey has been nothing short of remarkable. From his Academy Award-nominated roles in "Half Nelson" and "La La Land" to his Golden Globe-winning performance in "La La Land," Gosling has left an indelible mark on the film industry. His latest triumph as Ken in the critically acclaimed "Barbie" further solidifies his status as a cinematic powerhouse.
Gosling tells Bader Media that it wasn't for his wife and daughters that talked him into this role he might not have accepted it having doubts.
Gosling's diverse filmography, including standout performances in "Drive," "Crazy, Stupid, Love.," and "Blade Runner 2049," showcases his unparalleled range and talent.
We caught caught up with Gosling during The Santa Barbara International Film Festival where he received the 16th annual Kirk Douglas Award For Excellence in Film, where he shared insights into his experiences, including his role in "Barbie," collaboration with Margot Robbie on a new project, and a sneak peek into his upcoming film “Fall Guy” set to release in the spring.

00:00Kirk Douglas. He's one of the first true icons of cinema. Completely and utterly
00:06in a class of his own and I'm just Ken. So cool.
00:12Vader Media caught up with Gosling during the Santa Barbara International Film
00:16Festival where he received the 16th annual Kirk Douglas Award for
00:20Excellence in Film. I love this festival and it's just incredible to be here and
00:25be given this. I mean Kirk Douglas is such a you know an acting hero of mine
00:30and it's pretty special. I cannot think of a more successful actor today than
00:38than Gosling. You know his films all together have raised 1.9 billion dollars.
00:44I always think about actors that exemplify the qualities that Kirk was
00:51all about. Very physical performances, very versatile, very vulnerable
00:58performances. Ryan exemplifies those qualities. All the funds that are raised
01:04from tonight's event go towards our educational programs. You know we lost
01:09Kirk two years ago and I through my mind I was just thinking how proud Kirk would
01:15have been about you know the turnout and actually having Ryan and Greta Gerwig
01:19here tonight. His latest triumph as Ken in the critically acclaimed Barbie
01:23further solidifies his status as a cinematic powerhouse. One moment I was
01:28sort of you know building a Barbie's dream house in my you know for Christmas
01:33and then the next like six months later I was I was in it. I don't know that I've
01:38ever quite been as happy as when I've been watching him act because he is such
01:46a delicious and totally unexpected combination of genius. I think people
01:52talk about being seen and that was my experience. I've never felt more seen
01:57than by his performance. That's just my whole soul on display in the guise of a
02:05male actor portraying a doll. I don't know how that's possible but it's true.
02:11Known for his dramatic and comedic prowess, Ryan Gosling's cinematic
02:16journey has been nothing short of remarkable. There are many many nice
02:21things that I could say about Ryan Gosling. He seems like the perfect
02:27family man slash actor slash movie star. He seems like the type of person who
02:33would be singled out for an award like this. He is a genuinely nice person. He
02:39makes other actors who are pretending to be nice, like me, look like insincere
02:45piles of garbage. Well thank you Mr. Gosling. Santa Barbara, you actually got
02:52this one very right.
02:56Beautiful. Gosling's diverse filmography showcases his unparalleled range and
03:01talent. He shared insights into his experiences including his role in Barbie
03:07and a sneak peek into his upcoming film Fall Guy set to release in the spring.
03:12The Fall Guy is just incredible working with David Leitch and Emily Blunt. Such
03:17an incredible cast and you know just David Leitch is a stunt, you know, person
03:21started as one and obviously he's now this incredible director but you know
03:25the story comes from such an authentic place because he's had a window into
03:29making movies, you know, that only he has and so the film just has this kind of
03:34really special unique perspective and it's such a love letter not just to
03:38stunts but just to all the people who make films. I'm not the hero, I'm just the
03:41devil. Not today, you know.
03:43Having my kids and my family has just completely changed my whole perspective on work and why I work and the kind of work I do.
03:51I don't know that I would have done Barbie had I not. It ended up being one of the greatest experiences I've ever had.
03:57From his Academy Award nominated roles in Half Nelson,
04:00Oh no you didn't.
04:02to his Golden Globe winning performance in La La Land, Gosling has left an indelible mark on the film industry.
04:08Even just that sentence is surreal. I'm not even sure this is really happening.
