8. Nicholas Ryan- Ryan Gosling
Aspiring actor Nicholas Ryan wanted to improve not only his looks, but his luck with the ladies. After staring at himself in the mirror, he found some imperfections that he thought needed some work, so he visited a surgeon and told him he wanted to look like Hollywood heartthrob Ryan Gosling.
When a man scores a wife like Eva Mendes, chances are he’s doing something right, so Ryan chose Botox and filler injections to slightly reshape his face. Oh, and he chose the stage name “Ryan.”
“What I wanted was more definition in my jaw bone, like Ryan Gosling,” Ryan said. “I’m going for roles that demand a more rugged look in a man’s face. My favorite Ryan Gosling movie is Gangster Squad, a role that suits that type of heroic face.”
He also hopes that this new look will open doors in the entertainment business. “He’s got a look that a lot of people in America are looking for right now, especially in my line of work. I’m hoping I’ll get more auditions and roles if I look more like Ryan Gosling. That’s why I had the surgery,” he said.
While there are many actors that score roles because they look much like A-list stars, chances are if there is already a famous Ryan Gosling, Hollywood doesn’t need two — but he may get lucky.
