All Not Well Between Ryan Gosling & Barbie Co-Star Simu Liu? Actor Appears To Shoo Away Marvel Star At An Event, Netizens Say: “He Comes Across As Being So Rude All The Time”

Ryan Gosling, who is currently basking in the success of his new movie Barbie, got on the wrong side of the Internet recently after, in a video, the actor appeared to be brushing off his Barbie co-star Simu Liu while posing for the press at an event. Things got a bit awkward between the two, and of course, the Internet did not waste any of their time in commenting on the incident where many dubbed Ryan Gosling as rude. Scroll down to read the details.

In the movie Barbie, Ryan Gosling plays the role of main Ken whereas Simu Liu portrays the role of Tourist Ken in the flick. John Cena, Scott Evans and Kingsley Ben-Adir play the other versions of Ken. The Greta Gerwig directorial stars Margot Robbie in the titular role.

Circling back to the awkward moment between Ryan Gosling and Simu Liu, a video on Twitter surfaced from a recent Barbie event where Gosling and Liu together pose for the paps. As the duo posed for photographers on the red carpet, Liu tried to slip his hand around Gosling’s waist, which apparently did not go down well with Gosling as he reportedly tells him, “Don’t hold me there, man. I mean, do you want me to touch you like that?” To this, Liu replies, “You don’t what – oh, it’s too tender? Fair enough,” before removing his arm away from Gosling. Since, the video quickly went viral, Liu later took to Instagram to address the matter while referencing their on-screen banter in Barbie. “I’d beach off with this Kenadian again in a heartbeat,” wrote Liu while sharing a picture from the London premiere, adding, “[Gosling] is the best human in every way, especially when he jokes around with us on the carpet and on set, infecting all of us with his kenergy.”
