Ryan Gosling Early Career
Ryan Gosling made his big-screen debut in the early 2000s. His portrayal of a neo-Nazi character in the film “The Believer 2001” attracted critical attention. On the set of Calculus murderers, in 2002, he met actress Sandra Bullock with whom he tied an idyll that lasted a year. The actor continues filming, but at the same time cultivates his passion for music. Ryan Gosling and his friend Zach Shields released an album “Dead Man’s Bones”, in 2009 praised by the musical press. In January 2017, he won the Golden Globes for best actor in a musical, for his performance in La La Land.
Professional Career
Producer Susan Hoffman, a loyal collaborator of Barbet Schroeder, he is given the role of a particularly devious student in the thriller Murder by Numbers (2002), alongside Sandra Bullock and Michael Pitt, another young talented actor. Partner of Rachel McAdams in the sentimental drama Never forget (2004) and Anthony Hopkins in the legal thriller Fracture (2007), Ryan Gosling often remains associated with characters with a tortured spirit: adolescent having committed the irreparable in The United States of Leland (2003) or suicidal person led into a nightmarish journey by his psychiatrist Ewan McGregor in Stay (2005), the actor won his first Oscar nomination in 2007 for best actor thanks to his performance as a drug addict teacher in Half Nelson (2006).
In 2013 Ryan Gosling is again in the center of attention: he helps the tough policeman Josh Brolin to fight crime in Gangster Squad 2013, camps a robber on a motorcycle in the moving The Place Beyond the Pines 2012 and finally rediscover the simultaneously beautiful and violent world of the Dane Nicolas Winding Refn with Only God Forgives 2013. A year later, the actor presents his first film as a director at Cannes: Lost River 2014.
In 2016, the highly demanded actor takes center stage with the imposing Russell Crowe of The Nice Guys, a hilarious buddy movie signed by a genre specialist in the person of Shane Black.
