Shia LaBeouf and Ryan Gosling are reportedly teaming up for the Prohibition-era crime pic The Wettest County in the World.
Atomic Popcorn confirmed the news with the film’s director John Hillcoat, who also directed Charlize Theron and Viggo Mortensen in The Road.
The Wettest County in the World revolves around a moonshine gang operating in the bootlegging capital of America — Franklin County, Va. — during Prohibition.
Ryan and Shia as bootleggin’ brothers?! Can’t wait!!
Ryan Gosling and his band move their equipment into The Opera House in Toronto, Canada where they performed on Tuesday (October 20).
The 28-year-old actor/musician is now touring with Zach Shields as the Dead Man’s Bones. “Twelve cities in 14 days, a different choir in every city, and then a talent show opening for us in every city with local talent,” he told the Canadian Press.
Ryan shared, “It’s hard to tour this record and also do writing, but a lot of what we end up writing for the next record just finds some way into the live show…into our old songs, so I think that we’re playing our songs differently now.”
Ryan Gosling and his BFF bandmate Zach Shields have created a very unique video announcing the tour for their band Dead Man’s Bones.
The tour goes on all month and kicks off @ 8PM at Middle East on Wednesday (October 14) in Cambridge, Mass.
Check out the promo below — it involves a dog popping a bunch of balloons! Here’s the vid’s description: “We have been severely influenced by the works of [actor] Jan Michael Vincent and early [philosopher/ novelist] Jean Paul Sartre and I guess this our way of saying “thank-you” to all those who stood for something real and several things unreal. For all the Lou Diamond Phillips of the world who can step out in faith and say ‘please show my date the way out, quick’! This is for you.”
Ryan Gosling and a female friend take a nice walk together on Saturday afternoon (September 5) in Silver Lake, Los Angeles.
Later this month, Ryan and BFF Zach Shields‘ band Dead Man’s Bones will appear in a special month-long residency at the City’s famed Bob Baker Marionette Theater. The theater will play host to both Dead Man’s Bones and the Silverlake Conservatory Children’s choir, who appear on the band’s self-titled debut. The residency will showcase a unique collaboration between the theater and the band. The band scored and directed these performances, and will be providing the soundtrack to an unusual and remarkable spectacle.

Ryan Gosling and Zach Shields are set to bring their band Dead Man’s Bones on its very first tour this October.
Pitchfork reports, “The actor/musician duo will bring the songs from their band’s self-title debut album to life with the help of a local choir in each of the twelve spots they’re hitting. Their album was recorded with the Silverlake Conservatory Children’s Choir but they can’t bring all those kids on the road with them. Hence, a new group in every city.”
The opening act for the shows will be a talent show, organized by the band and featuring local talent in each city. Amazing! Check out the tour promo video below. It’s almost exactly like one of those videos you watch before you enter a haunted mansion at an amusement park!
