Ryan Gosling Basks in the MCU Spotlight: Who’s on the Line?
From “Shang‑Chi” Matters to Cosmic Chill
Initially, the buzz around Simu Liu’s tweet showed that “Shang Chi” was a must‑see, but soon the conversation turned to another bright‑skinned star—Ryan Gosling. The Hollywood heartthrob has caught the eye of MCU chief Kevin Feige, and the universe might just be inching him closer to its galaxy.

Feige confirmed that Rocky Ford’s “dream” is to slot Gosling into the Marvel cosmos, noting the actor’s “magnetic press pull.” While the great debate over no immediate launch for Nova or Ghost Rider tugs a bit, Feige hinted at a future cameo for the Spirit‑Rider, weaving him into the street‑level and supernatural realms.
