‘Barbie’ is everywhere right now.
Warner Bros. Pictures
With the cast of the movie having embarked on their press tour — and less than three weeks to go until it hits theaters — it seems that at this point, Barbie is impossible to escape.
Not that we’re complaining, and neither are a lot of other people, according to Ryan, who plays Ken in the film.
A video of Ryan talking about men seeing the movie is going viral.

In this video shared by Fan Expo on TikTok, Ryan’s talking to press about the wide appeal that Barbie has already.
According to him, “so many guys” are excited about seeing it, but “they all whisper it,” as if they’re embarrassed by this fact.
He doesn’t get why men would try to hide their excitement.

“I’m like, ‘Why are you whispering it? That’s cool!’” Ryan said, confidently adding, “There’s something in it for the Kens.”
He does have a point — Barbie is for everyone , and so is Ken, for that matter. This movie looks like so much fun (and seems to promise a lot of laughs).
Ryan brought his sister along for the press event.

His sister, Mandi, was by his side on the pink carpet in Toronto, and she gushed over how perfect her little brother was for the role while talking to ET Canada.
“It felt like such a no-brainer to me. No, listen, it’s like, of course he’s Ken!” she said. “[Ryan] had to look for the Kenergy, but I always knew it was there.”
‘Barbie’ is in theaters July 21.
And with Ryan Gosling’s blessing, the men out there who are excited to see this movie but might not be trying to let it show, feel free to go into the theater proudly.
After all this promotion, we know this is gonna be good.
