Ryan Gosling's Gun Is So 'Cute' In 'Gangster Squad,' Says Co-Star Anthony Mackie

Posted 1/11/12 10:12 am EST by in News


Although it didn't quite make the Sweet Sixteen in our big MTV Movie Brawl 2012, "Gangster Squad" is most definitely a film that we can't wait to see this year. The film is based on real-life events from the 1940s and 1950s when the LAPD tried to keep the east coast mafia from infiltrating Los Angeles. The very stellar actors involved are: Sean Penn, Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone, Josh Brolin, Nick Nolte and Anthony Mackie.

When MTV News caught up with Mackie recently during the press day for "Man On A Ledge," we asked him how much fun the cast had with all the old-fashioned gun play required for the film noir.

"You know what, we did some pretty awesome gun stuff. It's actually going to be a really good movie. It looks amazing, L.A. is a city that's made for noir films and [director] Ruben [Fleischer] put together an untouchable cast," Mackie said. "You have these amazing actors, Sean Penn did his thing, it's a fun movie to be a part of. The guns stuff you will not be disappointed. There's a lot of Tommy gun craziness, bullets flying, everything."

Robert Pattinson, Ryan Gosling And More Get The 'Jack And Jill' Treatment

Posted 11/11/11 11:00 am EST by in Photos


We don't know whether to thank or send hate mail to Adam Sandler and the rest of the crew of "Jack and Jill" for now making us wonder what our favorite actors would look like, to put it bluntly, as ladies. With "Jack and Jill" making its theatrical debut today, MTV's brilliant in-house Photoshop expert Sohyung Kang put the heads of four of our favorite actors on the bodies of some sexy women just to see what the result would be. And, to be honest, we're a bit turned on and put off by how pretty Robert Pattinson ended up being.

It's okay to dislike some of their make-up decisions -- that lipstick is not your shade, Alice Pacino -- but we definitely think this opens up some creative options for Pattinson, Pacino, Ryan Gosling and Daniel Radcliffe in the future. If Glenn Close can so convincingly switch genders in "Albert Nobbs" and Sandler can not-quite-as-convincingly switch them in "Jack and Jill," we think these guys could have something going for them as well.

Ryan Gosling Seduces You In 'Crazy, Stupid, Love' Exclusive Featurette

Posted 11/1/11 12:34 pm EST by in DVD


If we're to trust Ryan Gosling, the secret to successfully picking up a woman is being a weirdo without hinting that you're going to kill her. It may not seem like the most sound advice for seducing the hottest girl in the bar, but who are we to question Gosling?

In this exclusive behind-the-scenes featurette from the "Crazy, Stupid, Love" Blu-ray, out in stores today (November 1), Gosling shares the secrets he learned while playing the tutoring Lothario, Jacob, who teaches the newly single Cal, played by Steve Carell, how to reclaim his manhood.

"Crazy, Stupid, Love" arrives on Blu-ray and DVD today (November 1, 2011).

Would Gosling's techniques actually work? Let us know in the comments below and on Twitter!

Netflix Scraps Qwikster, Ben Stiller's 'Zoolander' Makes SNL Comeback

Posted 10/10/11 5:26 pm EST by in Dailies


Netflix

Stop your lamenting about Netflix's plan to divide their company in two, because they have already cancelled the launch of their sister site, Qwikster.

Announced only three short weeks ago, Qwikster was supposed to take over the DVD rental service that Netflix previously offered. But the immediate consumer backlash led Netflix CEO Reed Hastings to realize that maybe that wasn't such a great idea. He announced today in a statement that the new business model has been scrapped, and Netflix will remain Netflix for the foreseeable future.

'Ides Of March' Star Ryan Gosling Won't 'Fracture' In Today's Sick Day Stash

Posted 10/7/11 1:48 pm EST by in Sick Day Stash


Ryan GoslingCall them "cult classics." "Guilty pleasures." "Comfort movies." We all have a mental rolodex of flicks that may not be terribly popular but, for one reason or another, they resonate in a very special way. Maybe you saw it at the right moment. Maybe you just see gold where everyone else sees feces. Whatever the case, these are the special favorites that you keep stashed away for sick days. These are some of ours.

Ryan Gosling will complete his cinematic hat trick this weekend with the political drama "The Ides of March," playing a hungry press secretary on the campaign trail with George Clooney's earnest presidential candidate, Mike Morris. The film, based on the Beau Willimon play "Farragut North," is getting the kind of approval rating a world leader would kill for, but before you slap down your $10 and load up on the Junior Mints, I suggest you check out another of Gosling's intrigues, 2007's "Fracture."

In fact, I'd call the underrated crime drama a companion piece of sorts to "Ides of March." I mean, after the events of "Fracture," I could totally see Gosling's Willy Beachum eschewing the district attorney's office in favor of a political position supporting a man he believes could change the country. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

'Ides Of March' Exclusive Clip: Ryan Gosling And The Morning After

Posted 10/5/11 11:22 am EST by in News, Video


Leave it to Ryan Gosling to handle the "morning after" conversation with poise and a lot of class. In an exclusive clip from "The Ides of March," in theaters Friday (October 7), Gosling's character and political strategist, Stephen, talks to Evan Rachel Wood's Molly after spending the night together to make sure there isn't any "confusion." He doesn't want Molly to think he is a player, but she's pretty convinced he's just that.

In "Ides of March," Gosling plays the political savvy wunderkind behind the presidential campaign of Governor Mike Morris, played by George Clooney. Molly also works on Morris' campaign, but as a lowly intern. Stephen's loyalty is tested when approached by the opposing campaign with an offer to come work for them.

Check out the clip and stick with MTV News for all of your "Ides of March" news.

Five Reasons You Need To See 'Drive'

Posted 9/16/11 1:25 pm EST by in Five Reasons, Reviews


Buckle your seat belts because Nicolas Winding Refn's action-drama "Drive" speeds into theaters this weekend. One of the buzziest films of the year, the moody thriller stars Ryan Gosling as the laconic nameless "Driver," a stunt performer and mechanic by day and getaway wheelman by night, who becomes enamored of his neighbor Irene (Carey Mulligan), a sort-of-single mother who's raising a son while her husband serves time. Driver vows to do anything to protect the little family—including helping the just-released-from-prison husband (Oscar Issac) pull an ill-fated heist.

The film gained almost-instant critical acclaim when it debuted in May at the Cannes International Film Festival—and for good reason. This white-knuckle ride boasts an all-star cast, a gritty L.A. attitude and plenty of blood-drenched action that will leave you either queasy or begging for more. We've kicked the tires on this beauty and are pleased to report five reasons you need to see "Drive." Check them out after the jump!
