The Notebook, Barbie and La La Land Star Ryan Gosling Celebrates 46! 🎬🎉
Gosling has built one of the most varied leading-man careers of his generation, moving from romantic dramas and intimate character studies to action, comedy, science fiction, and major blockbusters. Noah Calhoun in The Notebook made him a romantic-screen favorite, while Drive, La La Land, Blade Runner 2049, and Barbie revealed just how easily he could reinvent himself.
More recently, he took audiences into deep space as Ryland Grace in Project Hail Mary, adding another major role to a career already filled with characters ranging from quiet outsiders and struggling musicians to astronauts, stuntmen, detectives, and even Ken.
Some of his most famous roles:
• Ken — Barbie
• Noah Calhoun — The Notebook
• Sebastian Wilder — La La Land
• The Driver — Drive
• Ryland Grace — Project Hail Mary
• Officer K / Joe — Blade Runner 2049
• Jacob Palmer — Crazy, Stupid, Love.
• Colt Seavers — The Fall Guy
• Holland March — The Nice Guys
• Court Gentry / Sierra Six — The Gray Man
• Neil Armstrong — First Man
• Young Hercules — Young Hercules
• Jared Vennett — The Big Short
• Luke Glanton — The Place Beyond the Pines
• Greg Banks — Goosebumps: Say Cheese and Die
• Lars Lindstrom — Lars and the Real Girl
• Dean Pereira — Blue Valentine
• Stephen Meyers — The Ides of March
• Willy Beachum — Fracture
• Dan Dunne — Half Nelson
Along the way, Gosling has earned three Academy Award nominations while balancing acclaimed dramatic performances with some of the biggest mainstream films of his career. Project Hail Mary continued that momentum in 2026, becoming another major box-office success.
At 46, his career is difficult to define by a single kind of role. That may be exactly what has kept it so interesting — each new project seems to reveal a different side of what Ryan Gosling can do.
Happy 46th Birthday, Ryan Gosling! 🎂🎬

Part 2 for this may have to come tomorrow! My day got away from me and it’s only half written. Buttt since Im moving it from today I’ll also write it into a full fic once part two is done!!
Okay #BloodyMary Obsession au (This is in fact freak4freak)
Ryland had never really paid other people any mind honestly. He was happy with his life, sure he was kicked out of academia and lost all credibility as a scientist. But he loved his job now and he was fine with that.+
