After raking in the big bucks with Barbie alongside Margot Robbie, it seems Ryan Gosling is eyeing another money-spinning franchise – the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Looks like the 43-year-old is ready to flex his superhero muscles. Will he finally be gearing up for superhero stardom? All the answers are here.
The Canadian actor only forays into the superhero pool with the 1999 TV movie The Unbelievable. Surprisingly, he hasn’t graced any superhero blockbusters since then.
Rumors suggest that The Gray Man star might be donning a superhero suit soon, with talks reportedly underway between him and Marvel Studios. Insider scoop reveals Gosling had a word with Marvel boss Kevin Feige, meaning he has the possibility of joining the vast superhero universe – but not as Ghost Rider.
Ryan Gosling Could Possibly Make a Marvel Debut as Mighty Avenger
Ryan Gosling might be suiting up as Nova in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The rumors intensified when news hit that a superhero project focused on Marvel Comics’ Richard Rider, a.k.a. Nova, possibly featuring Ryan Gosling, is in the works.
March 2022 brought the official confirmation, hinting that there were talks to bring this comic book character to the silver screen. But since then, the news on the project has been scarce.
As of January 2024, the Nova movie remains a mystery as no costing announcements have been made. But the cosmic hero’s shoes would perfectly fit the Ken star.
Earlier, the Hollywood star has also expressed his desire to play Ghost Rider in the MCU, with more focus on mature stories in the Multiverse Saga.
Fans have long waited to see Gosling wearing the cape in a superhero blockbuster. So, even though these rumors are under the shadows of uncertainty, there are some hopes that fans can cling to.
Ryan Gosling to Star as Colt Seavers in The Fall Guy Remake
Ryan Gosling is set to take on the iconic role of Colt Seavers in the remake of the 80s TV series The Fall Guy. It was originally made famous by Lee Majors as a Hollywood stuntman-turned-bounty-hunter.

The Fall Guy is scheduled for a world premiere at SXSW in March 2024, promising an early release. The action-packed remake is set for a wide release across the United States by Universal Pictures on May 3, 2024.
