Ryan Gosling Explains Why He Loved Working On Barbie With Margot Robbie, And A Seagull Is Involved



Despite those early ageist comments, Ryan Gosling was the perfect choice to play Barbie’s longtime boyfriend Ken in Barbie. He made Kenergy and the film’s viral hit “I’m Just Ken” one of the biggest phenomena of 2023. Of course, the element that sold Gosling as the iconic doll was his chemistry with Barbie herself, Margot Robbie. As Oscar buzz surrounds his comedic performance, the Academy Award-nominated actor explained why he loved working with Robbie, and a seagull is involved.

The Barbie star’s performance as Ken became a major pop culture moment in 2023 while racking multiple awards nominations, including a 2024 Golden Globe nod for Best Supporting Actor. So, as the award season gets going, Gosling and co-star Margot Robbie sat down with W for a joint interview about the summer blockbuster. The Hollywood A-lister opened up about the first scene he filmed with Robbie, and her sweet reaction to the prop he brought onto set that day:

The boat—when Barbie and Ken travel to the real world. I brought a prop seagull to set. I asked somebody to puppeteer it in the shot, and I didn’t tell Margot. Ninety percent of the actors I’ve worked with would go [very sarcastically], ‘You brought a seagull. Great.’ But Margot was open to the seagull puppetry.
