While Only God Forgives isn’t a sequel to Drive, “it feels like a shared universe. There are a few Drive touchstones in the footage: long tracking shots, liberal use of neon lighting (in this case purple and green) and a silent, but violent Ryan Gosling.” Refn himself described the project as a thriller produced as a Western set in the Far East, with a modern cowboy hero.
New images out for Ryan Gosling’s new movie.
This is my hair every day.

I don’t honestly know. Originally I was going to go into journalism, because I like stories, and I love writing stories, and I love telling them. But then, I also loved photography, so I decided to just put the two together (on a whim really), and do film. And I love it!
I’ve never ever really had any sort of direct purpose in my life. You know, some people go through life and they’ve got it all planned. But I never really liked that. I mean, if something messes up your plan, then it’s out the door and you’ll always try to be getting back to it, but sometimes, you can’t. In fact a lot of the time you can’t. And so a lot of people live their lives trying to get back to some dream that they had that was mostly inspired by materialistic things, or by the way their parents expected them to be. So I figured (but not really, when I say I figured, I mean I just did it without really thinking about it), that I’d just do what everyone else did, but not really plan for anything. Leave it all a bit open ended. I mean, who knows, maybe some day I’ll end up working as a deep sea diver. All I know is that if I had some spectacularly dreamed up rigid plan for what was going to happen in my life, I wouldn’t be where I am right now. And honestly, as much as I can complain sometimes (actually I don’t… I don’t know why I said that), I love where I am right now.
“[on the future of hand-drawn animation] I’m actually not that worried. I wouldn’t give up on it completely. Once in a while there are strange, rich people who like to invest in odd things. You’re going to have people in the corners of garages making cartoons to please themselves. And I’m more interested in those people than I am in big business.”
