Okay, so Ryan Gosling just dropped a pretty wild story about his time filming a Star Wars movie. He was chatting about the whole production process and casually mentioned Tom Cruise… and let me tell you, it was a surprising connection! It definitely caught my attention, and I’m sure it’ll pique yours too. It’s a fun little behind-the-scenes tidbit that really makes you wonder what exactly went on on set.
Ryan Gosling was absent when Tom Cruise showed up on Star Wars movie set
In an interview on the Happy Sad Confused podcast with Josh Horowitz, Ryan Gosling shared that he missed seeing Tom Cruise visit the Star Wars set because it was his only day off during filming.
He explained that he was absent only for one day, and that was the reason he hadn’t been present. He also mentioned he’d been working on the film non-stop except for that single day off.
Ryan Gosling shared that director Shawn Levy sent him photos of Tom Cruise and his co-star, Flynn Gray, covered in mud on set. This showed just how surprisingly hands-on Cruise was with the filming.
Gosling explained the visit happened unexpectedly. The crew was filming when they heard a helicopter and had to pause. It turned out to be Tom Cruise, who landed on set and started filming right away.
Ryan Gosling recounted how Tom Cruise arrived on set and immediately began filming the action scene himself, grabbing a camera and starting to shoot. Gosling also mentioned footage existed of Cruise filming Glenn Powell covered in mud, highlighting how unexpected this was during filming.
Ryan Gosling shared that he felt a personal connection to Star Wars while filming, explaining he brought his original childhood bedsheets to set and kept them in his trailer. He said they were the first sheets he ever owned.
He explained that his mother had saved these items and given them back to him when he started working on the project. The film’s announcement emphasized this, showcasing the sheets as proof of his long history with the series.
The film will be released in 2027 and features an ensemble cast.
