Working with Ryan Gosling was ‘amazing’, says co-star Priya Kansara

Hollywood star Ryan Gosling has been praised by his co-star Priya Kansara as “amazing”, as she reflected on working with him for their upcoming film Project Hail Mary.
The Canadian actor, 45, stars in the sci-fi film as a science teacher who wakes up on a spaceship with no recollection of how he got there and is on a mission to save the Sun from dying out.
Kansara, 31, features in the film alongside Gosling and told the Press Association that she enjoyed working with the award-winning actor.
She said: “It was amazing.
“Getting to watch Ryan work every day and be there on set, and doing it live with him… I got to sit and have a masterclass every day and he’s such a generous collaborator.
“It was such a collaborative effort, I learnt so much.”
The actress wore a simple, satin emerald green dress with a sparkly trim and her hair was in loose waves as she attended the event at Cineworld Leicester Square, London.
Kansara told PA she thinks the film is “so special”, adding: “You can’t help but come out (from watching it) feeling hopeful, and joyful, and knowing that there’s good in the world – or the universe.”
The actress, who has also starred in Bridgerton, said she found it “really cool” to play a molecular biologist in the film as she has a degree in the subject.
Gosling wowed crowds at the premiere in a striped ensemble, wearing a pinstriped burgundy suit and a matching striped shirt, paired with black patent loafers.
Actor James Ortiz, who is the lead puppeteer in the film and plays alien Rocky, also attended the event, wearing a burgundy suit over a black shirt, which had an ornate gold detail around his neck.
He praised working with Gosling, and told PA: “If Ryan was having an emotional scene, the hardest thing was me not crying.
“Because Ryan is so good at (acting).”
The star-studded affair was attended by Ted Lasso star Hannah Waddingham, who wore a form-fitting black dress with a cut-out pattern on the sides, accessorised with a black blazer draped over her shoulders.
Singer Myleene Klass and her daughter Hero Harper Quinn were also pictured at the event, both wearing black – with Klass in a black satin bodysuit paired with a matching, sheer mesh gown.
Project Hail Mary will be available to watch at cinemas across the UK from March 20.
