Carey Mulligan Joins Ryan Gosling in the Driver's Seat

Carey Mulligan may not be starring in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, but she's still ready to spring into action—an action movie, that is. The actress is in negotiations for Drive, a thriller starring Ryan Gosling (Bryan Cranston is also in talks). The film follows a Hollywood stuntman (Gosling) who moonlights as a getaway driver during robberies. But when a burglary goes amiss, he gets stuck with an ex-con's girlfriend (Mulligan) and his life on the line. First Mulligan joins Peter Sarsgaard for An Education, then real-life love Shia LaBeouf for Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, and now Gosling? She's cultivating quite the nice list of leading men.
