Ryan Gosling Accepts Deidre Hall’s Invitation to Visit Days of Our Lives Set

The exchange puts fresh focus on soap‑opera craft, with a visit to the set still to be scheduled.

Overview

  • Gosling, in a video posted Friday to Eva Mendes’ and Project Hail Mary’s Instagram accounts, accepted Hall’s invite and called her his “OG acting inspiration.”
  • Hall extended the open invitation in a playful video after hearing Gosling’s podcast praise, saying the cast watched his comments together and were thrilled to be recognized.
  • On the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Gosling said soap actors “do not get the love they deserve,” noting they often memorize about 10 pages overnight and shoot many scenes in a single take.
  • Coverage notes that timing a visit will take coordination, as Peacock said Days of Our Lives will not be filming next week and no date has been set.
  • Hall has played Dr. Marlena Evans since 1976, and Gosling singled out her famous “possession” arcs from 1995 and 2021, a shout‑out that has drawn new attention to daytime TV’s demands.
