Ryan Gosling is teaming up with the filmmakers behind Everything Everywhere All at Once for his next project.
The Oscar nominee will star in Universal Pictures’ upcoming, untitled event film from directors Daniels, ABC Audio has confirmed.
This marks the first directing project for Daniels, the filmmaking duo of Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, since sweeping the 95th Oscars in 2023 for their groundbreaking film Everything Everywhere All at Once. That movie walked away with seven Oscars, including best picture, best actress, best actor, best director and best supporting actress.
While plot details of the upcoming film remain under wraps, production on the project is expected to start in Los Angeles in the summer.
Kwan, Scheinert and Jonathan Wang will produce this new movie through their Playgrounds overall deal with Universal Pictures. Kwan and Wang most recently produced the upcoming documentary The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist, which arrives in theaters on Friday.

Comedian, writer and actor Pete Davidson, and model and actress Elsie Hewitt are officially parents.
Hewitt, 29, announced the arrival of the pair’s first child in an Instagram post Thursday, stating that their baby was born Dec. 12.
“Our perfect angel girl arrived 12/12/2025,” Hewitt wrote alongside several photos and a video clip.
Hewitt also revealed the name she and Davidson, 32, gave to their new bundle of joy.
“Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson,” Hewitt wrote, adding a pink heart emoji. “My best work yet, I am absolutely overflowing with love and gratitude and disbelief.”
Davidson previously opened up about his dream to start a family on Kevin Hart‘s talk show Hart to Heart in 2022.
“My favorite thing ever, which I’ve yet to achieve, is I wanna have a kid. It’s like my dream,” Davidson said at the time.
“I’m so excited for that chapter, so that’s kind of what I’m just preparing for now, is trying to be, like, as good as a dude and develop and get better, so when that happens, it’s just easier,” he added.
ABC News has reached out to Davidson’s and Hewitt’s representatives for comment.

With the Oscars less than three weeks away, actress Teyana Taylor is feeling mixed emotions.
“Oh, my God, my stomach is in my booty. It’s that feeling you can’t even describe,” Taylor said on Good Morning America Tuesday morning.
Taylor is nominated for an Oscar for the first time as an actress in a supporting role for her portrayal of Perfidia in the drama/thriller One Battle After Another, which also stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro, Regina Hall and Chase Infiniti.
“No matter the outcome, I am blessed,” Taylor continued. “I’m just filled with so much gratitude to be a part of this moment and of this journey and of this chapter and of the conversation. So I’m very, very happy, nervous, but very happy.”
For Taylor, one of the highlights of One Battle After Another was getting to act alongside veteran actor DiCaprio, an experience the 35-year-old likened to attending a “super master class.”
“He’s been a great mentor and I really admire his leadership because he’s a legend, he’s an icon,” Taylor said. “So I’m really honored that I get to share scenes with him.”
In her prep to play Perfidia, Taylor said she followed an acting method she used previously for the role of Inez in the 2023 crime film, A Thousand and One.
“I identified her layers and then I color-coordinated those layers. So coming into Perfidia, seeing that she was even more [of a] complex character, I wanted to do the same thing,” said Taylor.
“If I feel like, OK, I’m in a moment of feeling vulnerable, maybe that color is pink … if I’m feeling rage, that moment is highlighted in red. So I literally color-coordinate [Perfidia’s] emotions,” she explained.
One Battle After Another, which is nominated for 13 Oscars, including best picture, was first released in September 2025. It is still in theaters and also available to stream.
The 98th Oscars will air on Sunday, March 15, at 7 p.m. ET on ABC and Hulu.
The Walt Disney Co. is the parent company of ABC and Hulu.
