There are only a few men who manage to grow scruffy and handsome. Ryan Gosling, who turns 38 today, might not have had a head start in the business to look hot and happening. Yeah, if you would've followed his career starting from his Mickey Mouse Club days to some of the lesser known movies would not have expected him to turn into such a good looking guy. Perhaps it's thanks to Nicholas Sparks' The Notebook that brought him to newfound fame, the one that has stayed. And we know now for sure that he will be staying for a long long time!

While some Hollywood dudes did have some interesting transformations such as John Krasinski's sudden underrated glow (one that amplified to new levels in Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan) or Leonardo DiCaprio's cute looks going with a Dad-bod, women are still attracted to them. Gosling's transformation has more to do with dye jobs, edgy haircuts and the dreamy sleep smile that continues to fixate on his hot damn face. And with that, here's to the dreamy Hollywood face you probably have never gotten over. Just 10 pictures for you -

Otra gran dia para el mundo de la interpretación. Ya llegamos al cumpleaños de un actor legendario como Ryan Gosling! Un actor al que tengo un cariño inmenso y que para mí comparte el tercer puesto de mis favoritos/as, por igual, junto a una joven actriz que ya os imaginaréis jaja. En prácticamente todas las películas que hace consigue unas interpretaciones impresionantes y ahora mismo solo recuerdo una en la que me decepcionó. Encima es el mejor compañero y uno de los mejores amigos de mi actriz favorita, Emma Stone, con quien para mí forma la mejor pareja cinematográfica de la historia, la cual espero ver en muchas películas más. Felicidades, Ryan! Te deseo que sigas arrasando durante toda tu carrera como lo estás haciendo hasta ahora. Como ya te dijo Emma una vez: Eres el mejor! #RyanGosling

The 38-year-old actor for quite some time has been impressing individuals with his hot damn looks but is also doing a really good job in the entertainment industry. His past few films have been nothing short of commendable. Gosling's recent film with Damian Chazele (First Man) raked in pretty good reviews and is probably an Oscar-contender too! Clearly, god didn't just bless Ryan Gosling with the best genes but also with the best acting chops!
