Ryan Gosling to direct 'Doctor Who' starRyan Gosling is staffing up his directorial debut, "How To Catch A Monster." Variety reports that "Doctor Who" actor Matt Smith has landed a role in the fantasy noir, which also stars Christina Hendricks and Gosling's reported girlfriend, Eva Mendes. Smith, 30, is taking the lead male role.
According to a casting website, "How To Catch A Monster" combines "fantasy noir, horror and suspense into a modern day fairytale." The script, which Gosling also wrote, centers on Billy (played by Hendricks), a single mom of two sons. The "Mad Men" star previously described her character as "supporting two children and trying to provide a home for them and a place of comfort in a continuously harder place to be." Eventually, so says the film's synopsis, Billy's "swept into a macabre and dark fantasy underworld while Bones, her 18-yr-old son, discovers a secret road leading to an underwater town. Both Billy and Bones must dive deep into the myster, if their family is to survive." It's unclear at the moment what role Smith will play in his first stateside production. Filming is scheduled to begin in Detroit this May. |

Please tell me you mean Ryan Gosling and not Matt Smith. Because Matt Smith is very talented.
Ryan is not a good actor and winds up being the same disappointment over and over again.

I'm not really a black lady. I'm a pro football player.
I like soap. It smells happy like. Especially when people are washing clothes. It smells good.

Give a Hoot. Don't pollute.
El nĂºmero dos es smelly.

Remember son, never trust whiiitey
Your Dad may have been wrong about many things but you can be sure he was tight about the whites.
Not meaning tone rude but why do white people always look like they maybe sick? These two young men look quite ill IMFO.
I agree with you. Their pale skin makes em look all sick. Like they just got out of the hospital. I'm glad I'm not a sickly white.
This looks like it is going to be a show for embiciles. Lesbean ones.
