Ryan Gosling on bringing Kenergy to 'Barbie'
Gosling, Simu Liu and Michael Cera on "Kenergy," playing different versions of Ken, and what they hope audiences take away from the live-action film.
Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes have reportedly moved their two young daughters out of Los Angeles to avoid them growing up "around other celebrity kids."
A source told People magazine that the "Barbie" actor and Mendes moved "a bit further north," away from Hollywood. The celebrity couple share two daughters: Esmeralda, 9, and Amada, 7.
"For them, the most important job is their girls. Everything else comes second," the source told the outlet. "And their girls are thriving. They left L.A. to live a bit further north, away from Hollywood. They didn't want the girls to grow up around other celebrity kids."

The source continued, "Eva and Ryan love their life. It's admirable how they've been able to create balance and boundaries. They care so much about their marriage and just want their girls to live a happy life."
It is unclear if the stars, who have been in a long-term relationship since 2011, are now married. Fox News Digital has reached out to reps for Mendes and Gosling for comment.

"So proud of my man," she captioned her post in January. "So much hate when he took on this role. So many people trying to shame him for doing it. Despite all the #Notmyken ridicule and articles written about him, he created this completely original, hilarious, heartbreaking, now iconic character and took it all the way to Oscars."
