Beavis and Butt-Head took over the “Fall Guy” premiere in Los Angeles.
To the surprise of many, Ryan Gosling and “Saturday Night Live” cast member Mikey Day reprised their Beavis and Butt-Head characters from their hilarious and viral sketch at the April 30 event.
Gosling wore a blue “Death Rocks” t-shirt like the one he had on during the “SNL” sketch, complete with his bleached pompadour and prosthetic nose, while posing on the red carpet of the premiere of his new action movie.
Day sported his black “Skull” shirt, prosthetics, and exaggerated gums. The duo even crashed Emily Blunt’s Discussing Film interview in character. When asked their names, Gosling said Dean and Day said Jeff.
“You’re Emma Blarnt?” Gosling asked Blunt, who inquired if they were getting a lot of attention.
“We met at an AI conference,” Gosling replied in character, with Day adding, “We got some attention and now we’re at a premiere.”
The trio continued their bit, referencing their similarity to Beavis and Butt-Head.
While Gosling and Day enjoyed their antics, Gosling did step out as himself later to promote the movie. Cameras captured him in an aqua suit, posing with leading lady Blunt.
Gosling and Day first debuted their Beavis and Butt-Head-inspired characters during the April 13 episode of “SNL.” The sketch centered around an AI discussion between Kenan Thompson’s MIT professor Norman Hemming and Heidi Gardner’s NewsNation host Bobbi Moore. The professor becomes distracted by a man in the audience resembling Beavis from the 90s cartoon.
“There’s a gentleman in your audience who looks strikingly similar to Beavis from the cartoon ‘Beavis and Butt-Head,’” Thompson tells Gardner.
As the conversation continues, the professor is further distracted by Gosling’s Beavis.
The sketch went viral after Gardner broke character due to uncontrollable laughter caused by the hilarious portrayals. Gosling also struggled to keep a straight face once he was seated next to Day.
