Ryan Gosling saw Ken and said "literally me"

[herschelschueler]

I love how he isn't taking any of this remotely seriously.

[sumo]

"Ken has no job, has no house, has no car"
He's literally me!!!!

[andregordon]

Dry humour Ryan is the best thing ever.

[thiagodeandrade]

"He is an accessory." It is deeper than he probably intented it to be.

[dememeitized]

I love how he saw one picture and said "thts literally me"

It takes a SUPER secure man to be willing to play Ken in a Barbie movie. I applaud him 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[ginnycluff]

I need Ryan gosling to recreate that picture of Ken face down in the backyard 😂😂

[SakuraMoonflower]

The man fundamentally understood the purpose of a Ken Doll: he's nothing more than an accessory.

But he related and he identified with that, which is why he played the role to perfection. 😂❤🎉

All the Kens in the movie are Kenough.

I definitely felt the Kenergy. 😂❤🎉

“He’s an accessory” that really hits deep.

[CJusticeHappen]

To be face down in the dirt next to discarded lemon wedges, and think, "This is me. This is my place." Such is the Way of the Ken.

[notvenom]

I think Toy Story deserves credit for addressing that Ken is an accessory.

[Johnny-Number-One]

He then proceeded to play one of the best characters ever. Like he was genuinely amazing.

[DraugrCorpse]

He was honestly the perfect person to play Ken and proved all of us doubters wrong with his performance

[feliciaclaye]

When we were little my older brother used to get jealous of me and my older sister playing barbies; to help him feel included one Christmas my mom bought him a chauffeur Ken doll for our barbies and a new pink limo. His eyes actually lit up. He didn't complain, he happily was our chauffeur/butler. He was just excited that he would be included when we got out the barbies. 😂

Edit: This is the first time I have shared a story of us since he passed last year. I am happy that it brought joy and smiles to people that needed it.

[specific]

His comedic skills are not being utilized in Hollywood i think

[senshai]

Bruh Ken really has the best arc in the movie

[JennyKate]

I love Ryan Gosling. His portrayal of Ken is amazing and perfect.

[prosaic.]

Ryan keeps playing the "tragic hero nobody cares about" characters

[sdizobh]

Before seeing the movie, I thought Ryan was just taking the piss out of this whole movie promotion 😂 But now that I have seen the movie, I am just amazed by how truthful he has been to these interviews!!🤣🤣
