ActorRyan Goslingrecently appeared for an interview with GQ and talked about several things including his time onThe All-New Mickey Mouse Clubin the 1990s. The actor explained that he wasn’t really confident and questioned why he was on the show,
“Everybody was at, like, prodigy level. I certainly wasn’t a child prodigy. I didn’t know why I was there. And I think that was the consensus. It’s why I didn’t work—it was like, they dressed me up as a hamster or put me in the background of someone’s song. But it was all a great experience in a way because it helped me figure out what I wasn’t going to be good at. Which is important to learn too.”
Gosling worked with some other child stars who went on to become famous just like him, Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake. The actor wasn’t lying when he said other kids were on the “prodigy level” as his appearance on-screen was infrequent because other children were considered more talented.
