Ryan Gosling Is Really Worried That He’s Letting You Down

“They’re disappointed when I’m not Ryan Reynolds,” the actor told E!, acting out a typical conversation with a fan: “‘Oh, can I get my picture with you?’ And you’re like, sure, and they go, ‘I thought you were more muscle-y.’ No. ‘Have you gotten, like, more unattractive for a role?’ No. Just the role of my life.”

But he’s gotten used to it.

“Sometimes they’ll take a picture with me and then they’ll look at it and I’ll see their faces fall and they realize … that’s not Ryan Reynolds or Paul Bettany or whoever the hell they want their picture with.”
