Fresh from the success of the 2016 musical delightLa La Land, wherein his character had the time of his life dancing with Emma Stone’s Mia, Ryan Gosling stepped into a dystopian future Los Angeles as Officer K in the neo-noir science fictionBlade Runner 2049.
The sequel to Harrison Ford’s sci-fi classic was a huge departure from Gosling’s usual light-hearted works. A big selling point of any sci-fi thriller is its ability to maintain the mystery of its plot and characters right till the end. In that regard, a reporter tried to test Gosling’s resolve before the release of his movie by asking an unsettling question.

How Ryan Gosling Handled a Dark Question From a Reporter
InBlade Runner 2049,Ryan Gosling‘s K, an officer with the Los Angeles Police Department, is on the hunt for a former Blade Runner after discovering a secret that could lead to chaos.
That former Blade Runner is Rick Deckard,Harrison Ford‘s iconic character, who first featured in the series nearly three decades ago as an ex-policeman-turned-special agent with a mission to exterminate a group of violent androids.
Needless to say, the fate of Ford’s character is a big deal for Gosling’s movie. During its promotion,The Notebookstar faced a reporter who tried to get a spoiler of Rick’s fate in the continuation of the original story.
The reporter remarked (viaOn Demand Entertainment):“In the last movie that Harrison Ford did, that was 30 years after his last movie, he died.”
Gosling handled the reporter’s comment well, replying:“Okay, this interview took a turn, real dark. What are you… You look guilty. Yeah, this is entering territory that I can’t go with you. I can’t go here with you.”
His publicist then stepped in and led him away from that uncomfortable interview.
Not only did Gosling do a pretty good job navigating the challenging question, but he also delivered a brilliant, somber performance. The film was a critical success, earning plenty of plaudits for its casting and cinematography. It also did reasonably well at the box office, grossing $267.7 million globally.
