Ryan Gosling and Mikey Day Make a Splash at ‘The Fall Guy’ Premiere as Beavis and Butt-Head
Ryan Gosling and Mikey Day brought a dose of nostalgic hilarity to the premiere of ‘The Fall Guy‘ in Los Angeles, stunning the crowd as Beavis and Butt-Head. Gosling, the lead in ‘The Fall Guy’ alongside Emily Blunt, showcased his versatility by gracing the red carpet in two contrasting looks. Initially, he sported a sophisticated mint green suit and shirt, but later transformed into the iconic Beavis, complete with a blonde pompadour wig and ‘Death Rock‘ T-shirt, while Day rocked Butt-Head’s signature style.
The animated duo Beavis and Butt-Head, renowned for their silly antics and crude humor on MTV in the 1990s, were hilariously revitalized by Gosling and Day’s live-action portrayal on a recent ‘Saturday Night Live‘ episode. Their sketch, set in an artificial intelligence panel discussion, garnered over 13 million views on YouTube, showcasing the pair’s comedic chemistry.
At the premiere, Gosling and Day delighted fans and media by embodying Beavis and Butt-Head on the red carpet, even posing alongside ‘The Fall Guy’ composer Dominic Lewis. Despite staying in character for the photo ops, the actors refrained from conducting interviews in their comedic personas, maintaining a balance of entertainment and professionalism.
In ‘The Fall Guy,’ Gosling portrays a daredevil stunt man, marking the initiation of this year’s summer movie season in theaters. The dynamic duo of Beavis and Butt-Head, brought to life by Gosling and Day, added a playful and memorable touch to the event, hinting at the actors’ unmatched versatility and comedic flair.
