Lionsgate has unveiled a revised La La Land poster that changes Ryan Gosling’s hand pose, a detail the actor has criticized for years since the film’s 2016 release. The updated artwork arrives as part of the studio’s celebration of the movie’s 10th anniversary, according to Variety.
Details:
• The pose: Gosling has said he chose to flatten his hand during the photo shoot, but later came to regret the decision and frequently joked about it.
• “La La Hand”: The actor coined the nickname La La Hand for the pose, describing it as a choice he wished he had made differently.
• Poster update: Lionsgate kept the iconic poster intact while replacing only Gosling’s hand position in the new version.
• Anniversary release: The updated poster accompanies La La Land’s theatrical re-release as part of the film’s 10th anniversary celebration.
