14 DAY TRIAL // Ryan Gosling is now in Detroit working on a new movie, so this was the perfect opportunity to set up the perfect prank. All the team behind it needed was a good Ryan Gosling lookalike – and the rest pretty much fell in place.
Check out the video above to see how it all went down.
First of all, the guy is a bit too skinny and (I think) taller than the real deal but, as they say, sometimes, you only see what you want to see.
Dark shades, a hoodie and cup of coffee did the rest, fooling dozens of fans in Detroit into thinking that “Lyin’ Gosling” was the real Ryan.
What should have tipped them off was the pair of massive bodyguards. Ryan usually avoids media attention when he’s not doing promo work, and that means not traveling with a large entourage that could give his identity away.
However, I suspect many hearts will be broken when they see this video.
