There Was Almost a ‘Notebook’ Reunion at the Oscars

When it’s award show season, you can almost guarantee there will be some amazing celeb reunions that will pretty much break the Internet. So when we found out both Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams were attending this year’s Academy Awards, we hoped the Notebook stars would cross paths, bringing us all to tears once again with their undying love for one another. Well, that didn’t happen, and it was very upsetting to say the least. 

Believe it or not, it’s been 11 years since Gosling and McAdams straight-up created relationship goals in The Notebook. They also dated for four years following the movie but split in 2008. So, you could say a reunion between the two is long overdue, though not exactly likely since they’ve both moved on.

Twitter users were not happy that the Oscars couldn’t make the moment happen. At least Seventeen was able to capture the pair in the same frame at one point during the broadcast.


We expect a lot better the next time this is a possibility, okay?
