Are Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling thinking about that next step?

No, not marriage! The next next step! Kids!

The couple played parents on the set of The Place Beyond The Pines, and according to Eva, Ryan was a natural! She says:

"He’s really good.

He loves babies and he loved playing with the little boy we used in the film to play our son. It was adorable to see him in that light."

"There’s one intense scene in particular where everyone has been screaming, including the baby. The beauty of that scene comes when Ryan picks up the baby and he immediately quietens down and starts to fall asleep on him. That’s just magical.

That happened a lot, too. We did a lot of takes and that was one of the most beautiful moments in the film, because babies don’t act."
