Jake Gyllenhaal

By Seth Naturally, frustrations over fulfilling one's insomnia-curing civic responsibility will occur, and absorbing the brunt of them in this instance—quite literally—was one annoyingly high-pitched TMZ paparazzo, whose persistent questions of "Jake! Jake! What's it feel like to do t...

By STV 1/6 — I know he was just spotted there with Ms. Reese, but while I was sitting at the bar at Mozza at lunch time today I saw JAKE GYLLENHAAL walk in, at first I thought it was Reese standing next to him (there was a blonde head.. there was a bit of a crowd at the door..) but I cannot confirm that. I was too coo...

By Kyle Buchanan Correct us if we're wrong, but didn't Reese Witherspoon, y'know, win an Oscar just a few years ago? We're pretty sure she did, but you'd never know it from this poster for Four Christmases, the upcoming comedy she stars in with Vince Vaughn. Despite the fact that Vaughn fired UTA and his mana...

By Douglas Reinhardt Trachtenberg believes that her Gyllenhaal inspired look isn't too close to the current Gyllenhaal look. Trachtenberg said, "My Jakey has a bit of an indie rock vibe to him. You know, he could be in Vampire Weekend or a cooler band. I also picked up a shirt for myself."

By Molly Friedman Based on all the reports of on-set squabbling, competition and battling egos from the set of Jim Sheridan’s Brothers, our top suspects are the film’s “hunky” co-stars Tobey Maguire and Jake Gyllenhaal. Before Var even announced the remake’s cast back in September, the pair already had a...

By Molly Friedman Poor Ryan Phillippe. First, he earned a reputation as a shameful cheating husband who hurt the precious piece of Oscar-winning apple pie that is Reese Witherspoon, then gay-basher-turned-gay-lover Jay Leno urged Ryan to look “gay” on national television, and then his role in Stop Loss...

By STV The uninspired recycling of played-out mediocrity received a sleek bit of Hollywood upscaling over the last 24 hours, with no less than Jake Gyllenhaal, Christian Bale and the money gang at Sony Pictures climbing on the remake/franchise gravy train with some of the most appalling anti...

By STV The Capitol deal was supposed to free ThinkFilm to acquire and push films more aggressively in the congested indie marketplace; we've seen hints and flashes, but the inconsistency can't be helping as they hit the market at Cannes. But at least Russell is back to work! A carefully timed, vi...

By Douglas Reinhardt Beloved actress Reese Witherspoon took the news of Kate Hudson landing the cover of People Magazine's 100 Most Beautiful People issue rather hard while leaving the gym this morning. Witherspoon assumed that she was a shoe-in since she makes movies that people love and watch and dates the...

By Douglas Reinhardt While running through LAX yesterday, temperamental star Jake Gyllenhaal made a call to both his manager and agent to complain about the size of the airport. Gyllenhaal felt that the airport was too big and that more airports should have a downhome feel like John Wayne does. Gyllenhaal then...

By STV James Caan and Jake Gyllenhaal are the latest casualties of David O. Russell's tastefully hands-on directing style, which this week resulted in the Caan's departure from and Gyllenhaal's apparent whimpering around the set of Russell's latest film, Nailed. As reported today, Caan walk...

By Douglas Reinhardt In addition to the regular team of assistants, Jake Gyllenhaal has employed a personal umbrella holder on the set of Nailed.

By Seth · Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon with some other actorly types at the 5:35 Dome showing of Sweeney Todd 12/29. Reese was wearing a baseball cap w/"Jake" embroidered on the side. Awww. Both were casual and cute. She is teeny tiny. Seriously.

By Mark Back in Los Angeles, Fincher's mere utterance of that accursed phrase—even an entire continent away—immediately reduced a still-scarred Jake Gyllenhaal to the fetal position, a scene particularly disturbing to a concerned Starbucks barista who, no matter how many times she stroke...

By Mark · Fragile, masochistic thespian Jake Gyllenhaal, seeking out another auteurial taskmaster who might mete out the on-set discipline he so obviously craves, signs on to star in David O. Russell's "risque political thriller" Nailed. Pleasure and pain--sweet, sweet pain--to follow. [THR...

By Seth · TR Knight opened the show. Okay, I get that he was discriminated against and Isaiah should have been fired, but it was a little odd that he got a standing ovation. He was very "shocked" with the ovation, didn't really deliver a very good speech and it just sort of started the night off a little w...

By Seth · A-list Gay-Friendly* Royal Jake Gyllenhaal surprised the crowd by showing up to introduce Jennifer Aniston, who received—due in no small part to her revelatory, Courteney-Cox-ass -groping-turn on Dirt—the Vanguard Award. The gathered crowd—traditionally a placid, well-behave...

By Mark As he reviews Zodiac's box office returns this morning, notoriously delicate thespian Jake Gyllenhaal is fighting back the tears threatening to erupt from his singularly dreamy eyes; during his darkest moments on David Fincher's sensitive-actor-pummeling shoot, he'd told himsel...

By Mark Fans of delicate, dreamy-eyed thespian Jake Gyllenhaal may reflexively wince in sympathy as we ask them to recall his harrowing description of the abusive conditions in which Zodiac sadist David Fincher forced his cast to toil, an experience that's left the actor with a paralyzing fea...

By Mark Usually, when a reporter asks an actor about his experiences working for a Notoriously Difficult Director, the aggrieved talent bites his or her lip, takes a deep breath, then holds forth on how artistically rewarding it was to work for a "perfectionist."

By Seth Gene Shalit has been the Today show film critic for 31 years now, not because he has anything particularly insightful to say, but because it's fun to look at a man in permanent Groucho nose glasses every morning.

By Seth The countdown has begun to Brokeback Mountain, the movie that will test the outer man-on-man tolerance limits of even the most admiring of Ang Lee's straight, male cineaste fanbase.
