Ryan Gosling’s wax figure is making headlines for all the wrong reasons.

The statue of the Canadian star was unveiled earlier this week at Madame Tussauds in Berlin, Germany, and we have to say, it's pretty creepy.

While the museum features an array of famous celebs, including Rihanna and Johnny Depp, it appears they missed the mark with Gosling.

Just take a look for yourself.

While we can see the likeness to the “La La Land” star, the statue is definitely off. And to make things even creepier, Madame Tussauds Berlin’s website boasts that not only can you touch the wax figure of “lady slayer Ryan Gosling and take selfies together with him. No, you can also hear and feel his heartbeat.”

After its unveiling, Twitter was quick to criticize the wax figure for looking nothing like the Canadian star. One even used the hashtag #cantrecreateperfection.

Some thought the figure was so bad, they even referenced Disney’s recent “Beauty and the Beast” doll fiasco where the company tried to recreate Emma Watson as Belle.

This is the second wax figure for Gosling, who also has a statue at Madame Tussauds in London, England. Albeit, it’s far more handsome.
