Ryan Gosling Drops Out of New Daniels Film
Why it matters: The Daniels' next Universal Pictures film loses its major star, potentially delaying casting for its November 19, 2027 release.
- Ryan Gosling has exited the new Daniels film, as confirmed by IndieWire, due to an inability to align his schedule with the movie's summer shooting target.
- Deadline initially reported the news, noting the film qualified for a California tax credit and is set to shoot in Los Angeles, but its fixed summer production date conflicted with Gosling wrapping "Star Wars: Starfighter."
- The untitled film from the "Everything Everywhere All At Once" filmmakers, produced by Kwan, Scheinert, and Jonathan Wang through their Playgrounds deal with Universal, is still expected to open on November 19, 2027.
