‘Barbie’ Star Ryan Gosling Responds To Criticism He’s Too Old To Play Ken

Gosling is referring to director Greta Gerwig casting multiple actors in different versions of Ken like Simu Liu, John Cena and Ncuti Gatwa.

He continued, “It is funny, this kind of clutching-your-pearls idea of, like, #notmyken. Like you ever thought about Ken before this? And everyone was fine with that, for him to have a job that is nothing. But suddenly, it’s like, ‘No, we’ve cared about Ken this whole time.’ No, you didn’t. You never did. You never cared. Barbie never fucked with Ken. That’s the point. If you ever really cared about Ken, you would know that nobody cared about Ken. So your hypocrisy is exposed.

Gosling said that he cares “about this dude now” and calls himself a representative for the doll as he promotes the film adding, “Ken couldn’t show up to receive this award, so I’m here to accept it for him.
