Today, Ryan Gosling considers himself first and foremost as a father before being an actor. This is why he first thinks of his daughters, Amada Lee (six years old) and Esmeralda Amada (seven years old), both born of his union with Eva Mendes, when he chooses his roles. For example, with The Gray Manthe summer Netflix action movie in which he plays a secret agent and relentless killer alongside Chris Evans, the actor had the opportunity to take his family to the many places around the world where filming was taking place .
“Somehow, I’m a father first, and one of the reasons I made the film was the opportunity to go to these interesting places with my children,” he confided to the DailyMail. “You know, it’s funny, when we went to France, we did everything – we went to the Louvre and all that stuff. And now when I ask them, “What did you like the most in France?”, they say, “The fruit basket at the hotel”. »
Why play Ken?
And regarding Barbie in which Ryan Gosling will play Ken with Margot Robbie, it will be an opportunity for him to introduce his daughters to his work as an actor.
“It’s not that I necessarily do it for them, but it’s the first time, I think, that they understand a little (what I do). Even if they can’t quite understand why I want to play Ken, because no one plays with Ken. But that’s why we have to tell his story, ”he concluded, promoting the film, which is scheduled for release in 2023.
