Warner Bros on Twitter shared the first look of Ryan Gosling as ‘Ken’ for Greta Gerwig’s film ‘Barbie’. His character Ken’s first look was released on Wednesday. Ryan had beach blonde hair, six-pack abs, and a tan. Gosling can be spotted looking at the camera and smiling in the shot, which has a very vivid pink background, which is representative of the Barbie doll’s colour.

Earlier, the makers had posted a snapshot of actor Margot Robbie dressed as Barbie. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Robbie previously stated that the Warner Bros. film aims to exceed expectations. “We like the things that feel a little left of centre,” the two-time Oscar nominee said. “Something like Barbie where the IP, the name itself, people immediately have an idea of, ‘Oh, Margot is playing Barbie, I know what that is.’ But our goal is to be like, ‘Whatever you’re thinking, we’re going to give you something totally different. The thing you didn’t know you wanted.’ Can we truly honour the IP and the fan base and also surprise people? Because if we can do all that and provoke a thoughtful conversation, then we’re really firing on all cylinders.”
Aside from the film’s celebrity cast, little is known about it. The movie has undergone numerous revisions throughout the course of its eight-year development. Alethea Jones and Patty Jenkins were apparently in the running for the role of director. The film’s production is underway. No narrative details are available otherwise. Robbie Margot and Ryan Gosling’s starrer film will be in theatres on 21 July 2023. Furthermore, Gosling will appear alongside Chris Evans, Ana De Armas, Dhanush, and Rege-Jean Page in the Netflix thriller ‘The Gray Man,’ directed by the Russo Brothers.
