Though La La Land proved to be a massive hit, even claiming six Oscars, Ryan Gosling revealed there is one major flaw that still "haunts" him to this day... and the film's social media account hilariously made it right for him.
The 2016 romantic musical starring Gosling alongside Emma Stone saw major success, but still the actor said he would change one thing if he could do it all over again.
In a video interview with The Wall Street Journal, the Fall Guy star said his hand position during a dance move, which eventually became the film's poster image, was incredibly awkward, though very intentional at the time.
“There is a moment that haunts me where we’re dancing, Emma [Stone] and I - and I didn’t know this would become the poster for the movie - but I thought, we were supposed to have our hands up, and I thought it would be cool to put my hand [flat and horizontal]."
“Even though everyone told me it wasn’t cool, I was sure [flat] was better than [upright], and now when I look at it - and I have to see it all the time - you know what would have been cooler than [having it flat]."
He continued:
“It just killed the energy that way, it was sort of like, all leading to… what?”
Gosling said he refers to the embarrassing pose as “La La Hand."
After the interviewer told the actor that dancers actually call it “hamburger hands," Gosling replied:
“Hamburger hands Gosling over here."

After Gosling's interview, the La La Land social media team went to work.
And...pof!
And people on social media were living for it.
We hope Gosling is happy now.
RIP, Hamburger Hand.
