Nearly a decade after La La Land hit theatres, Ryan Gosling has finally got the one change he had been jokingly asking for all these years. Ahead of the film’s 10th anniversary re-release, Lionsgate has unveiled a redesigned poster that fixes the actor’s much-discussed hand placement—something Gosling himself once admitted still bothered him every time he saw the artwork. The internet, unsurprisingly, is celebrating the long-awaited correction.For years, Gosling has spoken about one detail from the Oscar-winning musical that continued to haunt him—the position of his hand in the iconic La La Land poster. Fans even gave it a nickname: “La La Hand.”Now, Lionsgate has officially updated the poster for the film’s 10th anniversary. In the new artwork, Gosling’s hand appears in the intended upright position instead of the flatter pose seen in the original theatrical poster.Sharing the updated poster on Instagram, the production house simply captioned it, “A minor adjustment.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by La La Land (@lalalandmovie) The updated poster comes after Gosling spoke openly about the now-famous hand placement in several interviews over the years. Speaking to The Wall Street Journal in 2024, he admitted the decision had been entirely his own.“We’re dancing, Emma and I, and I didn’t know this would become the poster for the movie. We were supposed to have our hands up, and I thought it would be cool to put my hand [more flat] even though everyone told me it wasn’t cool. I was sure it was cooler. Now when I look at it, and I have to see it all the time, you know what would’ve been cooler… [the intended pose],” Gosling added. “It just killed the energy that way. I call it La La Hand.”ALSO READ: 18 hour shifts, paid after 90 days: Actor Sudhir Pandey, 72, says deserves ‘better industry’ Story continues below this adInternet says goodbye to ‘La La Hand’The updated poster quickly became a talking point on social media, with fans amused that Gosling’s decade-old complaint had finally been addressed.One user wrote, “oh my god someone tell ryan right now.” Another exclaimed, “YALL MOVED THE HAND??”Many joked about the end of an era, with one fan writing, “RIP LA LA HAND (2016-2026).
