A few days after the release of the Barbie trailer, the network goes wild. For many Ryan Gosling is not good for the role of Ken because he is over forty and it shows. Will it be the fault of the improbable bleached hair?
We know how much waiting there is for Barbiethe movie of Greta Gerwig set in Barbie Land in a riot of pink and first live-action cinematic adventure of the famous doll. It’s been just days since the trailer was released, and if fans have loved the open-toed mules with heels by Margot Robbie that are seen at the beginning, many did not appreciate Ryan Goslingjudged too blond but above all too old to play the part of Ken.
This is a bit surprising, because Gosling he is always in shape and has crowds of admirers and admirers, who have sworn eternal love for him after seeing him in The pages of our lives. However, it must be admitted that the age difference between Ryan and the other cast members, first and foremost Margot Robbie, who is 10 years younger. Finally, on the face of Ryan you see a few wrinkles, and when ever the doll Ken Has she shown the signs of aging on her pretty face?
Ryan Gosling is a Ken in a midlife crisis
The detractors of Ryan Gosling/Ken they expressed their dissent notably on Twitter. We have to admit that they haven’t been bad villains, perhaps because they’ve known for some time that the actor was going to play the boyfriend of Barbie and they seemed more or less in favor of the choice of Greta Gerwig.
The Cinemablend site, just to give an example, shows a tweet in which someone says that, in fact, you can see the wrinkles of Ryan and that therefore the suspension of disbelief is made impossible:

A certain Sage writes instead that, yes, Ryan it’s too agé, but that platinum-blonde hair or a tan could be to blame. In any case Gosling She has dry skin and needs a lot of moisturizer.
I like Ryan Gosling but idk why he looks a little too old and dry. Not sure if it’s because of the hair or tan but he needed some moisturizer https://t.co/AThSfT154K

Then there are those who are more treacherous and explain:
I can’t get over it: Ryan Gosling is awful in this Barbie movie. I already had this impression when we saw the photos from the set, but now that there’s a trailer, it’s official: he looks like a forty-year-old in a midlife crisis, too old to be Ken, Margot looks like a twenty-five or so, a good age for Barbie.
I can’t get over how awful Ryan Gosling looks in this Barbie movie. I thought so before when we saw filming/stills, but now we have a trailer and it’s official
He looks like a 40yo man with a mid-life crisis – too old to be Ken
Margot looks in her mid-late 20s – good age for Babie pic.twitter.com/piZa2hDglA— Полина (@pravdapolina) April 5, 2023
Despite the rain of anti-tweetsGoslingthe actor will continue to be the first Ken flesh and blood of the cinema.
