Ryan Gosling Is Waiting For Marvel To Cast Him As Captain Canada

Ryan Gosling suggests he would be interested in joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Captain Canada. Ryan Gosling suggests he would be interested in joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Captain Canada. Born in Ontario, Gosling is known for a wide range of roles in both indie and blockbuster films of various genres. His latest role is as a CIA mercenary on the run in The Gray Man opposite Captain America actor Chris Evans. Considering there are nine books worth of source material in Mark Greaney's book series, the Russo Brothers' action thriller could launch a lasting franchise.


Arguably the most successful movie franchise of all time, the MCU is currently in the midst of Phase 4. Post-Infinity Saga, the franchise has made a concerted effort to expand its roster of heroes, with recent additions including Florence Pugh's Yelena Belova, Simu Liu's Shang-Chi, the Eternals, Hailee Steinfeld's  Kate Bishop, Oscar Isaac's Moon Knight, and Iman Vellani's Ms. Marvel. With a ton of movies and shows still on the way for Phase 4, there are many more Marvel characters who have yet to be introduced to the ever-expanding universe.


Ryan Gosling Isn't Too Old To Play Ken in Barbie, Promotional photographs of Ryan Gosling as Ken in the upcoming Barbie movie spark controversy, but here's why he's perfect for the role. Barbie movie were divided after seeing new images of Ryan Gosling in the film, with some claiming he's too old to play Ken - here's why that's wrong. Gosling is joined by a host of talent for Barbie, which is written by couple Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach, who both have Academy Award nominations to their names. Gerwig alone sits in the director's seat, but she's joined by an all-star cast that includes Margot Robbie, Will Ferrel, Simu Liu, Michael Cera, and Sex Education pair Emma Mackey and Ncuti Gatwa. First created in 1959, the Barbie doll is iconic in American culture, and a film adaptation based on the brand has been rumored since 2009. The movie is now filming in England, with a release date scheduled for 2023, and the recent images offered audiences a glance of Margot Robbie as the titular main character, and Gosling as her "perfect" boyfriend, Ken. However, the reaction to the pictures of Gosling suggest that many believe he is less than perfect for the role, with some even branding the casting "insane."


Considering that Gosling visually looks the part, with his bleached blond hair, spray tan, and six-pack abs, the problem that people have with the casting lies elsewhere. The issue supposedly lies with Gosling's age, and the 10-year age gap between him and Robbie, with them being 41 and 31 years old respectively. There's no doubt that Hollywood does have a larger problem with casting older men with younger women but Gosling's Barbie movie casting is not representative of that issue. In 2013, there was little outcry about the age gap between Margot Robbie and Leonardo DiCaprio in Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street, where DiCaprio was 16 years older than Robbie. Thus, Gosling's role as Ken needs to be viewed with more perspective. Even though there is an age gap, the fact that Barbie is in the safe hands of Greta Gerwig lends hope that the movie will transcend the age gap, and will do justice to the characters of Barbie and Ken.


Gosling looks perfect as Ken. The Barbie movie's makeup and wardrobe departments have ensured that Gosling suits Ken's persona as the "perfect" boyfriend and he looks nearly identical to the dolls. What's impressive is that he accomplishes this while being 41 years old. Regardless of the agist comments directed towards Gosling, Gerwig's Barbie reportedly includes multiple Kens and Barbies, and thus it's likely to include inclusive messages about identity which would appear to work well with a famous brand of dolls.


Gosling debunked rumors that he could be playing Nova in the MCU and later said he also wants to play Ghost Rider. Gosling's real-life partner Eva Mendes starred in the two non-MCU Ghost Rider movies opposite Nicolas Cage, and there have been rumors about incorporating the character into the MCU. Gosling's first choice, Captain Canada, is a tad more obscure. The superhero originates from a 1979 comic strip published out of Newfoundland. However, there is a superhero from Marvel comics, Guardian, who was created as the Canadian equivalent of Captain America.
