Without a doubt, the overwhelming fascination and allure surrounding Greta Gerwig’s Barbie has further skyrocketed its main stars into mainstream success. Of course, one of these stars would be Ryan Gosling, who is currently on a brilliant run after receiving unmovable praise for his gut-busting portrayal as Ken. But one of the highest rewards Gosling has received over the last several weeks has been being regarded as the GOAT when it comes to comedic acting.
Over on Twitter, an official clip from Barbie was shared all across the web for cinephiles to witness. As the clip continues to gain traction, one emphatic user was certainly unapologetic in referring to Gosling as “the greatest actor of all time,” as well as labeling him to be an “S tier comedic actor” due to his hilarious and unforgettable mannerisms showcased in the clip.
Considering Gosling’s memorable comedic timing and mannerisms in The Nice Guys, it hardly comes as a major shock that film buffs continue to praise him as an underrated actor with a broad range of abilities. And with Gosling orchestrating a special “comedic” surprise for both Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig at a Barbie sleepover, it’s now certainly confirmed that we’ve all known about Gosling’s brilliance all along.
So when the topic swings back around to the cinematic battle between Barbie and Oppenheimer, it’s clear that Greta Gerwig has a certain element that Christopher Nolan simply does not — and that would be the comedic brilliance of Ryan Gosling.
Barbie launches in theaters on July 21.
