Gosling is the absolute KING of not answering questions but making you feel like he did!

[@domjal]

He’d make a great politician!

[@xoxogemvenus]

My boyfriend does the same thing. 🤣

[@marybroome7865]

Like a hot hilarious politician who you'd forgive and keep voting for though you're not sure why 😆

[@alifc1082]

He's a lot of fun. He is answering and his quit direct, for those that talk about politicians (don't know why) you'd wish for politicians to be this direct.

[@elindepelin6505]

Scorpio’s tend to do that yes

[@kawaiiafangirl]

It's rare to have a Ryan Gosling interview lasting more than 4 minutes outside of an occasional talk show appearance so I salute Josh for being one of the few to be able to do so.

[@Samshafiz]

Like that in person too. Guy is so busy you get like 5 good seconds with him

[@DJButterSmooth]

Right I know he's a private dude but I wish he'd get out of the Hollywood interview scene a little and do somebody's podcast

[@nelliekat403]

There is also 9 minutes long interview from Joe.

[@Davidman3976]

As most famous actors, he does interviews because it is in his contract. Once his contract is done, he dissapears.

[@kawaiiafangirl]

@@Davidman3976 Yeah but are there any other actors of Ryan's generation who don't do a lot of interviews lasting more than 4-5 minutes outside of talk shows? Ryan also doesn't do a lot of talk shows either so it's a rarity to see him do a longer interview.

[@ttmt98]

Ryan's dry humor always hits. Great interview as expected from Josh!

[@Coast2Coast88]

Ryan’s uninterested looks of interest are truly a mastered art 😂

[@JT-wu1gn]

Dear Lord, this man has been gone for too long. I didn't know how much I missed him until I saw him again. Don't leave again, Ryan. We need you.

"Does this line spark joy?" This is ingenious!😁

[@sailorjupiter4]

husband: why does the interviewer keep laughing⁉️ me: it’s like when you talk to your crush and everything they said is the most hilarious thing ever 🤣💀

[@D_isco_D_ancer]

Despite what some are saying the Grey Man is a fantastic film. His performance is very good as always and the villain performance is also so good.

[@savage_skirt5386]

Agreed. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would.

[@KoreyByrne]

So true I loved it

[@i_love_rescue_animals]

I LOVED it and really loved how Ryan played his character, so stoic, but with a very dry sense of humor (great writing and / or ad libbing too).

[@gemmacca]

Agreed, I watched it last night and loved it.

[@amazing9754]

Yup you are absolutely right, amazing performance from the two of them

[@frankalein]

„Does this line spark joy? 🤔 If it doesn’t I cut it.“ 😂👌

[@Nazaba09]

‘It did not spark joy in me’. I CANNOT. 🤣

[@celticfire99]

8:14 Ryan looked genuinely concerned he was making Josh uncomfortable

[@SamPineSol]

Did anyone else catch Chris Evans call Ryan Gosling a Ken doll in The Gray Man?

[@reznafi702]

"Extra ten million to the first guy to put a bullet in this Ken doll's brain"😅

[@mzVivikaBam]

Yes. Can't UnHear it now when I see Ryan😂😂😂

[@meadowdez6302]

Ryan Gosling is such a versatile actor. I've been a big fan!

I’m better than heeeem

[@tshaa]

I haven't seen Ryan talk this much in all the gray man interviews combined that I've binge watched! Kudos to Josh for being a mvp

[@shelly9317]

I just love Ryan Gosling. He's like the sweet, charismatic, sexy, boy-next-door that's cooler than everybody and too good for you. Lol.

[@Yogi-bq7zv]

The movie was fantastic! Don't go by the critics- they completely got this one dead wrong. It was a wild ride, highly recommend!

[@lrvz7187]

It was average action film, Ryan basically carried the whole thing, and the writing specially on chris evans character was as bad as it can get, I dont complain anyway, I'll watch anything with ryan on it, so far he has always delivered

[@sakibulislam5060]

@@lrvz7187 compared to a lot of bad movies out there this one is gold.i had low expectations with this movie because of the poor reviews but i Didn't feel boring which makes it a good movie..now don't question my taste. I've seen all three parts of the Godfather.

[@gilbertwalker3222]

It was shallow and empty. The only pull it had was Gosling, without him it would have been unwatchable.

[@sha7303]

movie is a shitshow of action cliches.

[@belindajulie416]

Agree!!! I absolutely loved it and was really surprised the reviews weren’t great. Chris Evans did have some terrible lines but the overall tone was suspenseful while being surprisingly funny and witty. Can’t wait for the sequel!

[@Zarih67]

Josh is so good at this. A conversation instead of an interview.

[@ryangosling1768]

How's your year going for you?

[@amazing9754]

He looks so fierce and intimidating in Gray Man but so charming and pleasant in person

[@kawmedia]

Hilarious! I could watch a whole hour of this and not get bored... Josh please tell me you're getting him on Happy Sad Confused!?

[@amazing9754]

I have watched this movie about fifteen times already and still want to watch it, Gosling is great as always and Evans a big revelation as a villain!

[@maria369]

I watched it twice back to back. I've never done this before with another movie. I can watch it over and over again. One of my top favourite movies and I'm usually not crazy about action movies. Ryan Gosling is a mood! Love him ❤️

Make more Gray Man films. It was great, music was great and action was fantastic. Ryan should really be considered for Bond, not Evans, sorry, Ryan has that charismatic style, yet can be comedic in the role too while not taking himself too serious. Gray Man AWESOME.
