Alert the paparazzi (oh wait, too late) — Ryan Gosling has once again blessed Earth with his effortlessly cool dad-energy vibes. The 44-year-old human Ken doll (and Oscar nominee, NBD) was spotted in Santa Monica on Tuesday, bravely facing the most treacherous mission of all: running errands.
Decked out in a black and white plaid shirt (unbuttoned, of course — buttons are for amateurs), layered over a red tee that screamed “Yes, I’m still hotter than your entire Pinterest board,” Ryan paired the look with black jeans, a baseball cap, and sunglasses that probably cost more than your rent.
Was he grocery shopping? Picking up dry cleaning? Purchasing more coolness in bulk? We’ll never know. But what we do know is: Ryan Gosling does mundane like it’s an art form.
And if you’re thinking, “Wow, this man’s just like us!”—don’t. Because just last week, Ryan was out in Las Vegas at CinemaCon 2025 doing normal stuff like… promoting his upcoming space adventure blockbuster Project Hail Mary. You know, casual intergalactic savior duties.
The movie is based on Andy Weir’s best-selling novel (aka the guy who wrote The Martian), and it follows a regular dude who suddenly finds himself being told, “Hey buddy, time to save the universe.” No pressure! Also starring Sandra Hüller and Milana Vayntrub, Project Hail Mary is basically Gravity meets The Notebook, probably. It hits theaters March 20, 2026 — so mark your calendars and cancel all your plans for that entire week.
Oh, and in case that’s not enough Hollywood for you — rumor has it that Ryan might be joining the Star Wars universe. Yup. As if the Force wasn’t already sexy enough.
Ryan Gosling is running errands, saving the universe, possibly wielding a lightsaber soon — and still finding time to look like the world’s most attractive lumberjack.
What have you done today?
