The first poster for Ryan Gosling’s upcoming Bangkok-set Muay Thai movie “Only God Forgives” have been released and the superstar looks pretty banged up.
As reported by Coconuts Bangkok earlier this year, Gosling was spotted covered in fake blood and a prosthetic nose somewhere around Bangkok while shooting the film, which is directed by Nicolas Winding Refn of “Drive” fame.
Here’s a little plot summary of “Forgives”:
Gosling plays an American expat who runs a Muay Thai gym in Bangkok that serves as a front for a family drug smuggling operation run by his mom (Kristen Scott Thomas) back in Florida. Gosling is in exile from the States because he killed a cop there ten years ago.
Gosling’s drug addicted brother murders a prostitute thus getting himself killed by her father, in a judgment decided upon by the baddie of the film, a retired Thai cop named Chang, aka The Angel of Vengeance. Gosling’s mom then comes to Bangkok and orders Gosling to seek revenge on her son’s killers. Mayhem ensues.
The film is set to release around May of next year. Bring it on!
