Ryan Gosling On 'Gangster Squad' Set: Gun Troubles And Air Boxing (VIDEO)

Ryan Gosling spent much of his time dealing -- silently -- with small time mobsters in this fall's "Drive," playing an anti-hero who makes his own law. Now, he's going back in time to take on one of the biggest mobsters of all time, this time with the power of the criminal justice system on his side.

The Oscar nominated Gosling plays LAPD officer Jerry Wooters, one of several cops who goes after gangster Mickey Cohen, who is being played by Sean Penn. Josh Brolin takes on the role of Gosling's partner, John O'Mara, while Emma Stone plays a mutual love interest in the Ruben Fleischer-directed flick.

There have been plenty of scenes snapped by paparazzi including Gosling in this snazzy red shirt and vest, and the former Mickey Mouse Club member and Stone getting close.

Move over Johnny Depp...I do believe Ryan Gosling is the best actor in Hollywood now. I wish Depp would stop being a a drunk pirate or any drunk character...he has so much more to offer.

Nice Halloween costume, Ryan.

Make sure Mommy doesn't let you eat too much candy before bedtime.

That's the most unrealistic looking portrayal, you want to see realistic, Kevin Costner, Sean Connery's "Untouchables."

You know that wasn't the actual movie, right?

If he's not careful, he could end up like Natalie Portman. When you appear in so many movies in a short amount of time, there's a danger of people getting tired of you and needing a break.

The version of the Thompson sub-machine gun wasn't even produced until well into WWII. "Gun troubles" is right.

What is it with one group of people insisting on outing another group? If he is gay then it's up to him to decide how he wants to live his life. Isn't that the whole point of gay rights, to live the life you want to live without fear of persecution from others?

Gay bullies are as bad as hetero bullies.

No doubt. Why does EVERYTHING have to be gay-related? Jeesh. People/animals have been gay, straight or asexual for all of history. It's not news.

The need to claim members in your club to give you some semblance of power/relevance is just getting old.
