In an interview withThe Wall Street Journal, Gosling opened up about his future in his career.He said that he wants to do what’s best for his family, and in order to do that, he doesn’t want to accept roles that would put him in a “dark place.”
“I don’t really take roles that are going to put me in some kind of dark place,” Gosling explained. “This moment is what I feel like trying to read the room at home and feel like what is going to be best for all of us.The decisions I make, I make them with [wife] Eva [Mendes], and we make them with our family in mind first.”The Fall Guyactor also mentioned the love and bond he currently has with his children and how it played a role in his decision. He pointed out that it was them that inspired him to play Ken inBarbieand that he just wanted to be there for them, even if they were not on set.
“It was just sort of like, ‘Oh, this will be fun for them, too, because even though they’re not coming to set, we’re practicing piano every day or we’re dancing or we’re singing. Their interest in Barbie and their disinterest in Ken was an inspiration. I thought they were already making little movies about their Barbies on the iPad when it happened, so the fact that I was going off to work to make one too, we just felt like we were aligned.”
Gosling met his wife,Eva Mendes, back in August 2011, during the filming ofThe Place Beyond the Pines. Since then, the couple have been seen multiple times in public and eventually tied the knot and had two daughters together.
