Gangster Squad star Ryan Gosling joined Jimmy Kimmel to discuss pretty much anything including giving boxes of Girl Scout cookies to random strangers so he could feel like Santa Claus. Gosling also talked about the movie, dinner with Don Rickles, and Kimmel’s horrible haircut – courtesy of Jennifer Aniston.
The Gangster Squad Plot:
Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) runs the show in this town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from the drugs, the guns, the prostitutes and – if he has his way – every wire bet placed west of Chicago. And he does it all with the protection of not only his own paid goons but also the police and the politicians who are under his control.
It’s enough to intimidate even the bravest, street-hardened cop… except, perhaps, for the small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders led by Sgt. John O’Mara (Josh Brolin) and Jerry Wooters (Ryan Gosling) who come together to try to tear Cohen’s world apart.
