What's good for the gosling? A meatier, hairier Ryan.

One day before shooting began, Ryan Gosling walked away from his part as a greiving father in Peter Jackson's adaptation of the Alice Sebold novel, The Lovely Bones, according to Variety.

[Gosling] stepped out after gaining 20 pounds and growing a beard for the job. Sources attributed the exit to creative differences.

Mark Wahlberg will replace him.

HOPEFULLY THIS WON'T DELAY THE MOVIE. I'VE BEEN WAITING A LONG TIME. I DID THINK RYAN WAS A LITTLE YOUNG FOR THE PART. CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT MARK WILL DO.
