The publication of the first image of Ryan Gosling like ken in Barbie “broke the internet” this afternoon (15). With his platinum blonde hair, fake tan and underwear engraved with his name, the Drive actor is the spitting image of the Mattel doll.
Comparisons on Twitter went far: From the famous Brazilian plastic surgeon Dr. Rey to Fred from ScoobyDoo, people were divided on whether they thought the picture was wonderful or… even iffy. Check out the top tweets below.
Greta Gerwig, who is directing the feature film, is also signing the screenplay alongside Noah Baumbach. Barbie hits theaters in July 2023.
