  1. The Jake Gyllenhaal who appeared at Saturday's WonderCon in San Francisco was in a markedly better mood than the Oscar nominated actor this journalist met on the set of "Prince of Persia." Visiting the London production in December of 2008, Gyllenhaal was incredibly serious and almost dazed when sitting down to discuss the movie adaptation of the popular video game with HitFix. On this afternoon, however, Gyllenhaal was the smiling, self-deprecating, friendly and genuine actor the press and industry is used to working with (basically the polar opposite of his sister Maggie).

    Whether Gyllenhaal is feeling the pressure of his first broad action role is unclear, but his excitement regarding his next two projects, Ed Zwick's "Love and Other Drugs" and Duncan Jones "Source Code," was extremely evident. Gyllenhaal is shooting Jones' follow up to the critically acclaimed "Moon" and he was clearly chomping at the bit to reveal more details about the flick.

    To enjoy Mr. Gyllenhaal's enthusiam, you can watch the exclusive interview embedded on this page or for a larger version, click here.

  3. From Gossip Boy's Tweet today:
    "Happy Birthday to the late Heath Ledger. You are painfully missed but will never be forgotten."

    I second that.

  4. Honestly-I know an actor who worked with her on a movie (he has a key scene with her) and he told me Maggie couldn't have been more gracious, generous and professional.

    If she's a bitch, it's not on a set.

    ReplyDelete
  5. 9:42 AM, you made that up - Maggie's colleagues love her and I never read anything bad about her.

  6. Re: Hitflix interview: He was winding down from filming Pop, a long and from the bits we have heard difficult shoot, by Dec. I would think that he wasn't up to being interviewed, especially since at that point he hadn't done any interviews since Rendition.

    Sorry, that doesn't make any sense.

  7. Jake Gyllenhaal promotes the Apple iPad at the 2010 WonderCon convention on Saturday (April 3) in San Francisco, Calif.

    The 29-year-old Brokeback Mountain star was joined by producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Mike Newell to promote their new movie Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time .

    The fllick was shot in Morocco and Jake even did a lot of his own stunts! The movie involves Jake growing up on the streets, but after showing courage in battle, is adopted by the king as his heir.

  34. What we do know for sure is that each has been seen wearing a ring on a chain around their neck, hidden from view except when seen by accident or when they did not expect to be photographed.
    April 04, 2010 1:44 AM


    This is what I find intriguing. Not the pinky rings, but the apparently hidden rings on chains - which is not common and does seem to hold some meaning. You don't just put a ring on a chain under your shirt for no reason at all, I don't think.

    Some posters here talked about that girl being the one who always hangs out with Kirsten and that it was the same of the "park pics with Heath" that I assume that this are.

    I think Jake looks a bit worried. Heath seemed very nervous at the DGA's. I think it was Heath who rather needed a hug. Maybe he got one later from Michelle or Jake or both. ;)

  68. Why everybody here is convinced that Jake is a poor little wimp that needs to be hugged and comforted all the time??

    There is nothing wrong with wanting to hug and comfort people.

    And what he did after that was he kept the music rolling and Natalie Portman, who plays my brother’s wife in the movie, she leaves the scene. Jim kept the film rolling on and on and on and I just kept listening to this song [The River by Bruce Springsteen] and by the end of this take, I just start to cry and cry, I couldn’t stop crying.

    Behind his facade and ambitions there's a sensitive guy imo. If people feel like (virtually) hugging him, let them. What, are we only supposed to criticize him?

    ReplyDelete
  70. "Because we believe Jake is sensitive, affectionate and loves hugs."

    True. But he's also very ambitious and self-confident. And knows how to work the media.

    Of course not, but some think he's tougher and stronger than believed. Yes, he is sensitive, but, like I said, also very self-confident and nothing can bring him down.

    Remember DSF story? Jake still goes to Garde Manger (sp?) almost every night. DSF didn't spoil it for him. ;)

  74. It's wonderful that Matilda will have all the youtube videos and her father's movies to see her father.

    As to Jake, he comes across as needy, you can tell he was the baby of the family. Even when out with his boyfriends, they give the impression that they are taking care of him, not the other way around.

  77. Remember DSF story? Jake still goes to Garde Manger (sp?) almost every night. DSF didn't spoil it for him. ;)

    Because no doubt Jake made certain DSF will not set foot there as long as he's in Montreal. Since you mentioned it, if nothing can bring Jake down why didn't he just ignore DSF's remark? Instead he went ballistic. Doesn't sound like a man who has it that together, sure he knows how to work a crowd and play nice for media (that loves him) but that's work. He's always been good at it, a very skilled performer.

  78. Self-confident up to a point - remember Golden Globes, January 2009?

    Please, it was difficult for him to be there and witness all the hoop-la about Heath. Look at other shows he presented. Very confident.

  79. Why would it be difficult for him to witness all the hoopla about Heath? Wouldn't he have WANTED him to win and be honored (particularly in light of his untimely death) for TDK if he had cared for him?

  116. I will always be convinced that Jake's feelings about Heath were all over the place and quite unresolved which accounted, in part, for some of his more erratic behavior this past couple of years.

  117. I will always be convinced that Jake's feelings about Heath were all over the place and quite unresolved

    Maybe they were unrequited more than unresolved. ;)

    I think the feelings of everyone who loved/liked Heath are still all over the place. There is no limit on mourning, but 2 years seems like it would be enough time to come to terms. Yet Heath's close friends and colleagues (Matt Damon, for example), are still brought to tears when talking about him. You can also see by the things people say when they choose to speak that Heath and his friendship is something they consider sacred and very personal. Even if they knew him only for a short period of their lives, they seemed to connect deeply with him.

    ReplyDelete
  118. Guess that some gossiping tweets do turn out to be true. I remeber last summer, July I think, after Reeke left DC, there was a tweet by someone that Reeke had been booked for the White House Easter Egg Hunt. Well, that is true. I'm in NYC and the local Fox News morning show is covering the Egg Hunt and the reporter was at the White House talking about the upcoming hunt and said one of the big stars that would be there is Reese Witherspoon. Looks like the Chin's PR really did book that event last year. Imagine if Reeke was still going strong, the photo ops the Chin would have had for that. US Reekely would have had a front cover and 2 page layout inside. And we can be sure that JJ will have the photo op of Chinny pretending to be motherly with all the kids at the Egg Hunt. Gag!

    ReplyDelete
  119. Maybe they were unrequited more than unresolved. ;)

    IMO, Jake and Michelle loved/liked him more than vice versa. Though I'm sure Heath was fond of both and even loved Michelle for the while when she was visibly preggo and shortly after giving birth.

    No intention to cause trouble, I'm just hypothetically speaking, but to me if Jake was straight (and I'm with those who think he isn't) he and Michelle would have made much more sense.

  120. In a subsequent interview with Moviefone, Gyllenhaal talked about beefing up for the role of Prince Dastan ("There was nothing hard about it, man, I was paid to get in shape") and responded to chatter about disapproval over a Caucasian actor playing a Persian, saying he's not a cowboy (or gay), either, like he played in 'Brokeback Mountain' (touché!), and adding, "I feel like a character's a character. And it's hard for anybody to really say anything until they've seen the movie, too. Everything's just an idea until it becomes a reality."

    That is a sentence from 'Superheroes, Slashers & Skydivers: WonderCon 2010 Report' article, so I expect we will see video interview with Jake and hear what he said.

  126. I find it extremely cool of Michelle that she was ok with some of Jake's fliriting with Heath. I think she knew it was harmless.

    There was always a fondness when she looked at Jake. Probably also because both had something in common - lurving Heath. :D

    Thanks, looking forward to it. When words aren't in quotes (and sometimes even when they are) things can easily be misconstrued. And when you throw parentheses in there it can get even more confusing.

  129. Argentinean singer Pablo Ruiz admits to kissing Ricky Martin in 1991.

    "I'm going to confess something big: I kissed Ricky Martin several times… I was 17, I still had not had sex with a man. He (Martin) was 22 or 23. It was in Mexico, I was on tour and he lived there - he was doing a TV show. We were at a private party with people we trusted."

    If only the closeted in Hollywood would start confessing like this. There are so many private parties that Jake has been at...

  133. Jake Gyllenhaal Confused By Isabel Lucas QuestionsApril 05, 2010 11:06 am

    Comic book conventions are not usually the place for celebrity gossip. Stars go to show previews of their superhero movies to fans and bask in their star struck adulation. Jake Gyllenhaal went to WonderCon in San Francisco to promote this summer’s video game movie Prince of Persia. When a journalist in a press conference asked him how things were going with Isabel, Gyllenhaal didn’t know what he was talking about.

    “Who?” Gyllenhaal asked the journalist who’d asked him about Lucas.

    The reporter then asked if he was in fact dating Isabel. The actors had been spotted together and rumored to be dating. Either those reports are false, or Gyllenhaal is taking the fifth. “It’s news to me, my friend,” Gyllenhaal said. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

    To deflect the personal question, Gyllenhaal’s colleagues joked that he would like to meet this mysterious Isabel. Then the actor played along.

    “Yeah, yeah, that would be nice,” Gyllenhaal said.

    I don't like Lamey at all. But I do think Jake hung out with Isabel at GM. But, IMO, it didn't mean anything and Jake probably doesn't want to be in tabloids for whom he is dating/hanging out with yet again.

    Rachel as a beard would be the better choice. But he was probably having harmless fun with Isabel. Even gay guys can have some (platonic) fun with "loose" straight girls. Last time he had fun with his "fat" assistant. So, let him have some fun with different people when going out.

    Tabloids would write once about it and then forget it, like they did with Rachel and Olivia.
    Jake can influence how often he's in tabloids. Reeke bullshit was so often in tabloids because they did so much photo ops and because Reese's PR actively used tabloids for her promotion and marketing.

    No, I don't believe Lainey over Jake. She obviously tried to hook him up with Isabel which I think is BS. I think it was harmless partying together. And Jake doesn't want to make a big deal out of it.

  150. There is no reason for lainey to make it up and why choose Isabel Lucas? Most people had to look up her name. Someoen sent her that information based on what they saw,and she posted it.

    Who that someone is? Jake's PR? Isabel's PR? Both and he is playing "dumb" Also they asked him if he was dating her, from lainey's post they were just hanging out not dating.

    So don't blame Lainey, someone wanted it out there that they were in the same space. If Lainey wanted to make it up I think she wouldn't have chosen Isabel.

  151. Posted on OMG

    On the other, Isabel is in a movie that, at least in Mardch, has been filming in Brisbane, Australia.

    Doesn't it seem odd that if she was filming down there in March that she wouldn't have stuck around to spend Easter with her family?

    February 15, 2010
    A Heartbeat Away, has just begun shooting in Brisbane after being delayed late last year due to refinancing. ... Set to sing and dance their way through the film, the cast includes include Isabel Lucas (Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Daybreakers) Sebastian Gregory (Acolytes, Accidents Happen, Beautiful), Williams Zappa (Bootmen, Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior) and Colin Friels. A Heartbeat Away is set to wrap filming at the end of March and will be released in Australian cinemas in 2011.

    Jake is pretending that he doesn't know who's Isabel Lucas because he doesn't want to be connected to her in any way, he's affraid someone might think he likes hanging out with girls?

    ReplyDelete
  154. ^^No, he just doesn't want to make a big deal out of this evening. IMO. End of story. We won't hear of him and her probably ever again anyway. Much ado about nothing.

    ReplyDelete
  155. Well then we should blame all the rset of the shitty gossip columinst you follow and post here because they do the same thing. They also lurk around fan blogs looking for "gossip" and spinning it into "inside info" aka fanfic.

    You also seem to cherry pick crap you want to believe from the hated Lainey.

    Bottom line: Someoen must have e-mailed her that bit just like others have e-mailed gossip bloggers and they post w/o checking.

    IMO she was there despite what was reposted above from OMG, they were supposedly spotted on Thursday night. If she is still filming she may have gotten off for the holiday. Jake was off on Friday, she may have gotten off a bit earlier.

    If it was made up I would think someone would go the McAdams route since she is from Canada and has family there.

    She was probably at the club along with Jake and Kiki but not together. I saw Jake's rep. Carrie with Jake in soem of those WonderCon videos, I wonder if she is the one that tipped off lainey.

    WonderCon coming up and Isabel being a fanboy/pinup girl something Rachael isn't. No harm done, the Convention is over.

  161. from lainey's post they were just hanging out not dating.

    Re-read lainey's post. She definitely made it sound like they were doing more than "hanging out" and she definitely was trying to push them as an item. Directly from her post: "Unfortunately there will be no McJakey. Not yet. Because it looks like Jakey is tied up with someone else....Last night he was spotted at Garde Manger and I’m told exclusively that he was “all cuddled up” with Isabel Lucas. ..When he wasn’t wrapped around her....And he didn’t seem to be missing Reese at all. Or, for that matter, Rachel."

    She's doing more than just reporting on some e-mail, she's trying to create a story that isn't there. Isabel may well have been in the restaurant hanging with Jake, but Lainey is adding the "cuddling" and the "wrapped around" and "didn't seem to be missing" bullshit. Why would he even be "missing" Rachel to begin with? - all he did was present an Oscar with her. lol.

    I explained why in a post above. As I've said it's just my opinion.

  164. Lainey will print anything you email to her as a "sighting". Give her a try it can be great fun. PR certainly knows this and uses her to their advantage when they want to make someone look good or make an ex or a rival look bad.

    ReplyDelete
  165. There is nothing to support that Isabel Lucas was at Garde Manger restaurant or in Canada that evening.
    There is no reasonable explanation why would Jake lie and pretend that he never heard about her.
    So I don't see any reason to doubt what Jake said.

    Jake Gyllenhaal Talks Prince of Persia, iPad, and Beautiful Rachel McAdams in SF!

    WonderCon came to San Francisco this weekend, which meant lots of star power in the Bay Area including a very handsome Jake Gyllenhaal — check out Buzz's take on all the highlights with videos to come soon! Jerry Bruckheimer joined Jake who chatted about playing video games as research for Prince of Persia and how he feels about the 3D trend in movies. After the panels Jake headed to the Disney cocktail party, where the iPad was the talk of the town and of course Jake had one to play with. Jake told us how excited he is to see himself as a Lego for Prince of Persia, a toy that he still gets to play with thanks to the little kids in his life. He's currently filming Source Code in Canada with Vera Farmiga, which he said has been an amazing experience. Jake also got cute talking about how gorgeous Rachel McAdams looked on Oscar night, though he admitted that he left a few footprints on her long dress! Stay tuned for lots more details from the festival to come.

  172. I'm sure Jake didn't bring up the subject of Rachel and how "gorgeous" she looked on Oscar night. No doubt he was simply responding to more lame questions from the press. Although I have to say, his PR can't be hating some of those questions, lol. I think someone said it a few weeks ago - "virtual bearding" - all that has to happen is that his name gets thrown out there with some young blonde. No muss, no fuss :)

    He has lots of friends - surely some of them have little kids. I don't think there's any hidden meaning there or anything mysterious. And it sounds good to say that - I wonder what his cut of the action figures is :)

  176. I think kids includes Ramona and BT. People usually don't refer to their friend's kids as being part of their life.

    As crazy as Lainey is, don't think she'd make something up. I think PR sent her the story, and pr didn't think Jake would ever get asked about something like that. Don't think Isabel was anywhere near Montral at the time, and I don't think Jake was lying when he said he didn't know a thing about it.

    The filming was set to begin today. Isabel Lucas has a small part, so there was no reason for her to be in Montreal.

    April 2, 2010
    When we met earlier this week, Welsh actor Joseph Morgan had just finished a full read-through of the script for Immortals (formerly titled Dawn of War) with most of the cast, including Henry Cavill, Stephen Dorff, John Hurt, Freida Pinto, Kellan Lutz and Luke Evans. The big-budget epic set in ancient Greece, which is set to start filming in Montreal on Monday, also co-stars Mickey Rourke, who is not yet here, and is directed by Tarsem Singh, best-known for making The Cell.

  181. There is no way Jake's PR is going to send a story to Lainey about a known actress being with Jake when she was nowhere in his vicinity. It would much easier to just put some stuff out there about an "unidentified" pretty blonde. She was probably in the restaurant, maybe even at Jake's table or nearby - the rest is bullshit.

    I agree with with whoever said Jake didn't want to make a big deal out of it - he's not going to get into some story about how he was at a restaurant and Isabel was there, too, but they were just hanging out and it wasn't a date, blah, blah. That's the quickest way to lead to more questions. People are NEVER satisfied with that kind of answer. It's just like the typical "we're just friends" answer that no one is ever satisfied with. And it sounds like whoever asked the question just used her first name and he was probably thinking wth? I can see why he'd be puzzled when someone throws the name Isabel at him as if it's supposed to be his girlfriend. His PR might not mind his name attached to young blondes, but I got the impression Jake did not like the question.
