What Ryan Gosling Role You Are, Based On Your Zodiac?

As one of Hollywood’s brightest stars, Ryan Gosling has been in dozens of movies throughout his career. Appearing in movies across all genres, he has shown us how talented he really is, even being nominated for an Oscar twice for his performances.

Considering he has been a wide array of movies, it seems like there is a Ryan Gosling movie out there for everyone, no matter what your preference is. Because everyone has their Zodiac sign and the signs are pretty accurate to one’s personality, let’s use the Zodiac to find a Ryan Gosling movie for everyone.

12 Aries – First Man (2018)

Ryan Gosling plays Neil Armstrong in this bio about his mission to the Moon in 1969. Playing a real-life character can be a challenge as you have to adopt someone’s actual mannerisms to nail the role.

As an engineer doing something the world had never done, he shows pure determination and confidence. He dives into it headfirst and accomplishes his mission despite all the setbacks in his life.

11 Taurus – The Notebook (2004)

Starring Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling, this movie is about two very different people (McAdam’s character is from a wealthy family, Gosling’s isn’t) who fall in love and their romance is cut short when the girl’s family decides the boy isn’t good enough for their daughter. Years later, they find themselves again and they pick back up right where they left off.

Godling’s character, Noah, is a very determined and stubborn man, literally waiting years for his girl to fall back in love with him. Even after it was assured he would never see her again, he would write her letters and he never stopped thinking about her. Taureans are well known for their stubbornness and dedication to their work, which is a perfect description of Noah, who waited years for his love and built a house with his bare hands while waiting.

10 Gemini – The Place Beyond The Pines (2012)

Normally we’re used to seeing Ryan Gosling as the handsome, put together protagonist, but in this movie, he looks almost unrecognizable. The Place Beyond The Pines is about a young bank robber who goes into a life of crime to provide for his little family that includes his young son and soon to be wife (Eva Mendes). He may seem intimidating but he is quite the opposite and simply wants to provide for his family.

Geminis are among the most intimidating and unpredictable signs because it seems like they feel everything and they can adapt to any situation. To be a good bank robber, you have to be able to adapt to any situation and think on your feet when things go wrong. He had a rough exterior with a soft side, making him a true Gemini.

9 Cancer – Blue Valentine (2010)

In another movie about a turbulent relationship, Gosling plays an alcoholic, unmotivated house painter with violent outbursts and unpredictable behavior. Michelle Williams plays a young nurse who is determined to make a name for herself.

There is a lot of fighting and it shows what the worst parts of a relationship can be, up until the end. Gosling’s character knows he won’t amount to much but still tries to manipulate his lover to stay with him by gaslighting and playing with her emotions. He doesn’t display a lot of good Cancer traits but he does display some of the worst of the Cancer zodiac sign.

8 Leo – Crazy, Stupid Love (2011)

This star-studded rom-com stars Steve Carrell, Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone, and Julianne Moore and tells a story about a divorced man (Carrell) who is looking to get back into the dating world but has a bit of trouble doing so.

7 Virgo – The Nice Guys (2016)

Ryan Gosling pairs up with Russell Crowe in the comedy/thriller, in which Gosling plays a failed private eye hired to investigate the disappearance of an adult film star. When he discovers some bad people are also looking for the woman, he teams up with an enforcer (Crowe) to find the woman before the bad guys do.

He may be a failed PI but he is still a good investigator and he has his moments of genius. Virgos are known for their inability to leave anything to chance and have as much control over their lives as possible, which is what makes him a successful PI at the end of the movie.

6 Libra – Half Nelson (2006)

Half Nelson is about a great and intuitive History teacher who spends his nights struggling with drug addiction. When one of his students discovers his dark secret, he tries to get help to act as a mentor to the young girl.

Driver is arguably one of Ryan Gosling’s best movies even though he hardly speaks. This action-packed indie is about a stunt driver with a particular set of skills that make him a desirable getaway driver for a series of robberies. Don’t let his soft-spoken nature fool you, he has some unpredictable bouts of rage and he is more than capable of defending himself when needed.

Scorpios are very picky about the people they interact with. They may appear cold or distant, but they are also the fiercest lovers when they find their person. This much is true with Ryan Gosling’s character who rarely speaks to anyone except the girl he grows to love and his boss (Bryan Cranston) who he sees as a father figure.

4 Sagittarius – Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

Taking place over 30 years after the original, Gosling stars as the new Bladerunner. In this movie, he sets out to find a retired runner, Dicard (Harrison Ford) after he discovers some sketchy things and wants to get to the bottom of it.
