“Ryan Gosling had hearts and pulses racing. He made a surprise cameo at Universal Studios Hollywood’s stunt show inspired by his new flick “The Fall Guy,” TMZ wrote.
“Ry popped up onstage during the promotional “Waterworld” pre-show, ‘The Fall Guy Stuntacular.'”

Ryan Gosling Stuns During Universal Studios Visit
During Gosling’s visit to the set, David Leitch, the director of his upcoming film tried to bring him onstage to perform some of the stunts. But Gosling quickly shut down that notion
“After jet skiers showed off some stunts, director of ‘Fall Guy’ David Leitch appeared onstage and brought Ryan out to be part of the show. As Leitch starts to try and get Gosling in on the action he protests saying, “No, I just came out to say hi,” TMZ added.
“RG gave the audience a pitch for the picture … telling them, “The film’s a comedy, it’s a drama, it’s a love letter to the stunt community. It’s been getting really great reviews, so check it out, if you feel like it.”
Gosling Details Preparation For ‘Barbie’
Gosling was one of the stars of the 2023 blockbuster film Barbie. He played Barbie’s opposite Ken. Gosling said that he had a pristine mindset in preparation for the film.
He didn’t want to approach the role half-baked. He prepared for the role with more intention than he had with any of the past films of his career.
“I wanted to make sure if I was going to do it — I was like, ‘I can’t mess this up. I can’t be the guy that messed up the Barbie movie,’” Gosling says. “So if I’m going to do it, I have to do more than I know that I’m even capable of.”
Margot Robbie, the star of the film went on to praise Gosling for the extreme humility that he showed during the production of the film.
“I don’t know if a lot of big male movie stars would do a film with a female director where their character isn’t the title of the film. We both sensed he was not that kind of guy,” she said.
