Ryan Gosling might soon star in an MCU production

For quite some time, Gosling's admirers have wanted to see him play a superhero, and now there's an allegation that Gosling recently had a meeting with Kevin Feige, the CEO of Marvel Studios, to discuss possible parts in the massive superhero franchise, as disclosed by insider Daniel Ritchman on Twitter.

DanielRPK is a reliable leaker and industry insider who has previously broken numerous MCU speculations, most of which have been true. If the scooper is right again, fans will see Gosling in the MCU shortly.

Besides, this is not the first time the Golden Globe winner's name has been mentioned in the same sentence as the MCU. Gosling was once a candidate for the portrayal of Doctor Strange, but Benedict Cumberbatch ended up getting it.

Furthermore, the same source claims that within a specific timeframe, the actor will receive an offer for an unidentified role. Gosling and Kevin Feige are allegedly engaged in negotiations to find the actor a role.

A lot of people think Ryan Gosling is going to portray Nova, aka Richard Rider, who has long been missing from the MCU. However, Gosling quickly refuted those rumors as well, saying in an MTV News interview back in July that:

"He didn't know anything about Nova."

According to what @joshuahorowitz posted on X (formerly Twitter), the Drive star contacted Josh Horowitz to say he was willing to take a stab at portraying the Ghost Rider.

These handfuls of superhero positions are now likely to be portrayed by the La La Land star, despite the ongoing and intense speculation about the character Gosling would play.

It remains to be seen whether the Drive star will suit up for the MCU, as neither Marvel Studios nor Ryan Gosling have responded to or confirmed these speculations.

Meanwhile, fans' excitement levels are through the roof now that their favorite star is rumored to portray a superhero (or supervillain) in one of their favorite franchises.
