Ryan Gosling is holding back on showing his kids his Ken side. He’s not quite ready to let his daughters, Esmerelda and Amada, see him in his latest role. The actor, known for his part in Barbie, shared this tidbit.
His daughters, who are 9 and 7 respectively, did help him prepare for his role. But they haven’t had a chance to see the movie yet. Gosling spilled the beans during an exclusive interview with E! News. This happened at the 2024 Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
He mused over the right age for kids to see their dad in such a role. “I don’t know if you should watch your father as Ken,” he said. He added, “I don’t know what age is a good age to see your father do that. It gets pretty crazy.”
His girls did get a sneak peek though. They visited him on set and saw bits of the movie. Gosling shared, “They’ve seen little parts of it and they came to set one day when I did a big musical number.”
Interestingly, their love for Barbie played a part in Gosling taking up the role. He remembered how they’d ask to go to Target. Once there, they’d subtly steer towards the Barbie aisle. Gosling and his wife, Eva Mendes, noticed this. He said, “And my wife and I sort of realized, ‘OK, I think it’s time to let them have Barbies.’”
What’s more, the girls showed no interest in Ken. Gosling found that pretty interesting.
