Kirsten Dunst is back in action – dancing the nights away at New York City's Beatrice Inn and hanging out with new guy Matt Creed. Three months after leaving the Cirque Lodge in Utah after being treated for depression, the Spider-Man actress, who just bought a Tribeca penthouse, is shooting All Good Things in Connecticut with Ryan Gosling and making the rounds in downtown Manhattan. Her go-to spots? A night owl by nature, Dunst, 26, was recently spotted having a late bite at the cavernous Bacaro on the Lower East Side, then heading to the Olsens' fave haunt, the Beatrice Inn.

Harrison Ford is considering reprising another of his big-screen action heroes - his role as special agent Jack Ryan.

Ford followed in the footsteps of Alec Baldwin in 1990 film Hunt For The Red October, by playing the CIA analyst in 1992's Patriot Games.

The 65-year-old returned to the role two years later for Clear and Present Danger, but Ryan - novelist Tom Clancy's most famous creation - has since been played by Ben Affleck, who stepped up for 2002's The Sum of All Fears.

Ryan Gosling is the latest actor to have been linked to the role.

But Ford insists he would definitely consider making a third Jack Ryan movie - because he would love to play a mature version of the legendary character.

He says, "The Ryan films, the Tom Clancy films were, I thought, worth re-exploring again, but I wasn't a huge fan of the book on which the last one was based. I think they made a cracking good shot at it and I think Ben Affleck is a very, very talented.

"That's a character that I think you could revisit acknowledging the passage of time and his increasing age. It wasn't age dependent; that character and his experiences were chockablock full of recipes for good engaging movies, so that's a character I wouldn't mind revisiting."

The Notebook star Ryan Gosling has joined celebrities waging war against the bosses of fast food chain Kfc over the conditions in their poultry slaughterhouses.

The Oscar-nominated actor has fired off a letter on behalf of People For the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) to John Bitove, who oversees Kfc Canada, urging him to stop the ongoing abuse of fowl supplied to his restaurants.

Gosling calls on Bitove to implement meaningful animal welfare reforms, stating, "The time is ripe to do the right thing.

He adds, "By adopting the basic recommendations made by Peta and scientific experts (including raising birds in a more natural manner and employing less cruel slaughter methods), you could dramatically improve the lives and deaths of chickens raised and killed for Kfc Canada."

Celebrities who have fired off letters about the Kfc abuses in the past include pop star Pink and Pamela Anderson.

By Michael Atkinson

One of 2007's breakout indie hits, "Lars and the Real Girl" was just high-profile enough, profitable enough, acted-by-Ryan-Gosling- within-an-inch-of-its-life enough and conspicuously life-affirming enough to, in the end, warrant a substantial backlash. But a backlash descends every year on overpumped movies as naturally as autumn comes to summer, inevitably, and we need to keep in mind that backlash is as irrelevant to the movie in question as is the hype and popularity that spawned it. In an ideal world, we'd see movies in a vacuum unpoisoned by publicity plague dogs and self-aggrandizing bloggers and clueless critics. Instead, we're inundated with cant that is predominantly interested in itself and its opponents, not in the movie as it would be seen, by itself, a year or ten down the road. We need to remember, for instance, that while "Juno" didn't deserve any sort of Oscar, and was

Lars And The Real Girl star Ryan Gosling was nearly sacked by Disney over his obsession with sex - at the tender age of 12.

The Notebook actor was recruited as one of the child stars in the now infamous The All New Mickey Mouse Club in 1992, alongside pop superstars Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera.

But the rebellious actor became such a bad influence on his fellow child entertainers, their mothers teamed up to launch a campaign to get Gosling kicked off the show.

The 27-year-old says, "I was just telling them what I'd heard about sex, you know, positions and stuff.

"Disney had a meeting with me, and they were like, 'You're not Disney material. We're gonna kick you off the show if you say anything sexual again.' I'm f**king 12! All I care about is sex! How can I not talk about it?

"I don't know what they expected."

Actor Ryan Gosling was a wildchild as a youngster - rebelling against his strict Mormon upbringing.

The Lars And The Real Girl Star claims his trouble-making antics started when he was just two years old - when he set his home on fire.

And the 27-year-old's hellraising stunts didn't stop there - he once put the family cat into the dryer and was continually destroying household items in a bid to focus the attention on himself.

He says, "When I was two, I was sneaking out of the house, never wearing my clothes and breaking things, putting the cat in the dryer and setting the house on fire. I wanted to entertain.

"When I was six, I'd get into my red Speedos and do moves. I thought I was muscular. I didn't know everyone was laughing at me."

Actress Michelle Williams has put work commitments on hold indefinitely while she grieves for her former fiancee Heath Ledger. The 27-year-old was filming the last scenes of new movie Mammoth in Sweden when she heard of her former lover's death last week. The former Dawson's Creek star immediately flew to New York with the couple's two-year-old daughter Matilda where she is expected to stay with family and friends. But the trip has prompted the filmmakers behind her next project Blue Valentine - also starring Ryan Gosling - to put the film on hold. A source tells People.com, "We will hold off until she is ready. The production is in the process of sorting it out in respect to her. We're hoping she will still come back and do the film and are happy to wait. The film is tailor made for those two so of course we would want to wait. You can't get much better than them." Williams and Ledger began dating after meeting on the set of Brokeback Mountain in 2005. The couple split in September 2007.

Ryan Gosling paid a special tribute to pal Heath Ledger at the Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday - by wearing a special black ribbon on his lapel. The actor's sister Mandy designed the subtle black bow for the Lars And The Real Girl star because she felt Ledger's death should be acknowledged on the red carpet. Gosling's sibling, who was his 'date' to the awards, says, "We just had to mark something terrible has happened." And the actor himself used interest in his black ribbon to urge the media to leave those grieving Ledger's shock death last week to mourn in peace. He said, "They (media) should leave all the people in his life alone. It's terrible." He wasn't the only one with Ledger on his mind - Best Actor winner Daniel Day-Lewis dedicated his award to the Brokeback Mountain star.
