You better load up your Netflix queue with Ryan Gosling flicks, because he announced that he's taking a break from the big screen. The 32-year-old heartthrob told AP Entertainment, "I've been doing it too much ...I think it's good for me to take a break and reassess why I'm doing it and how I'm doing it." In lieu of this recent news, here's a look at Gosling's top five sexiest film roles that are sure to hold you over until his return to the limelight.
1. The Notebook "It wasn't over, it still isn't over!" Who could forget Gosling's portrayal of the SUPER sexy good ol' boy Noah in the 2004 flick. It also helped that his on-screen lover was his real-life girlfriend, Rachel McAdams, at the time.
2. Crazy, Stupid, Love. It was his 2011 shirtless scene in this romcom with Emma Stone that had tongues wagging and coined the term "photoshopped abs."
3. Drive Ryan Gosling plays the quiet, mysterious driver in this 2011 critically acclaimed film, and transitioned him from heartthrob to badass.
4. Blue Valentine Though this 2010 film can get a bit dark, Gosling plays the unmotivated husband, Dean, to Michelle Williams' character Cindy. Even with his faux receding hairline, Gosling still manages to steal hearts with his wit and charm.
5. The Ides Of March Co-starring alongside two-time Sexiest Man Alive George Clooney in the 2011 political flick, Gosling manages to hold his own as a sexy scene-stealer.
