It's not like that. It depends where you get the info. There are times that everything image related is about filming of a movie, we have had the Munford and Sons train phase, the bycicle phase, among others. Now, Jake is between films and what we get the most is his social life, and it's normal.
He has started a new relationship, why should he hide? I much prefer this (acting naturally, going to different places with your new GF, because you want to spend time with her obvs) than forced everything in order of avoid cameras. Do your thing
Jake Gyllenhaal and his model girlfriend, Alyssa Miller, in Central Park at Shakespeare in the Park’s production of “Love’s Labour’s Lost,” where an onlooker said, “So impossibly attractive, even if they weren’t famous, people would still stare” . . .
Oh, poop. Jake's single,& he dates, even girls who weren't famous. There's a difference between a few dates, and actually trying to have a relationship with someone.
The intersection between the fashion world and the world of celebrities is pretty well established.
If he parties with them, and hangs out with and knows a lot of single girls who happen to be models, and his friends party with and date models, then he is very likely going to meet & date models. I mean it's sort of like high school for grown ups. LOL!
Honestly, who cares? Jake's got a girlfriend. Good for them. I'm glad UV posts photos, bcz yes, they're a stunning couple, and since they seem to spend a lot of time together, why ignore the fact they're a couple. As fans we talk about his career, and his friends, and his activities all the time.
It would be dishonest to pretend Alyssa doesn't exist in his life. Thanks for posting the new photos UV. I'm enjoying the ride. : )
Anon 9:44, thanks for promising not to come back. Well said, Anon 10:02.
Jake's not doing anything different to draw attention on purpose. He is doing the stuff he always does. He is just doing it with someone special. I am happy for him. Thanks, UV.
I´m very curious to see what Jake is doing in LA, new projet maybe?! Exciting. And he ´s back with the cargo pants, greiiiiiiiit!
And now the last Batman/superman News. I almost stop breath when I saw the cast story about it. And now Ryan Gosling and Joe Manganiello, please no. Somebody make this stop. Can we just say Wes Bentley is the new Batman and be done with it?
Monica, I really like Wes too i think he is deep and a really good actor. I very happy for him now that he is health.
Apparently Jake will go to San Sebastián: Sección Oficial en el Festival Internacional de Cine de San Sebastián 2013 que contará con la presencia del director y del actor Jake Gyllenhaal.
Oh, I'm glad Jake will go to San Sebastian. Should get some nice photos.
I assume that is not the real poster, Hagen. Heaven forfend! Wish the movie were longer, but that will be a nice does of Jake. If we ver get to see it!
FP, did you say that you had surgery? Hope you're feeling better.
News of Iceland: The Icelandic director Baltasar Kormakur is preparing to film his next movie, Everest. He was on the Italian Dolomitos mountains last week where he found suitable filming locations. He is also going to New Zealand where he will speak to the widow of the man which the main character in Everest is based on.
Baltasar will also go to Nepal next week where he will check out Mt. Everest using a helicopter, but the director doesn't plan to hike on the mountain himself. "The time used for preparation is always expensive and I can't afford to climb Mt. Everest only to tell some reporter that I have done it." said Baltasar.
In recent interviews, Baltasar talked about that he wanted to partly shoot the film in Iceland. He says that has not changed and he hopes that he can film in a studio in Iceland for up to two months. "This is promising and hopefully it will work" said the director.
@girllovessummer jake Gyllenhaal is on the vineyard, the actual island, right now
UV :) you're too sweet, I'm fine now! it was nothing serious, just a small hernia, although I dramatized at most to have a bit of pampering and relaxation! ;) LOL!
How can Jake be on the Vineyard when he was in LA yesterday. I know there are planes, but we saw him buying a lot of groceries. So this tweet either is a joke or a mistaken identity.
In practical terms: "Produced by the U.K.’s Working Title, and skedded to roll late October/early November, the action-adventure drama of a disastrous 1996 multi-expedition assault on Everest that left eight climbers dead, is now in “soft prep,” Kormakur said on the eve of Locarno. Josh Brolin, Jake Gyllenhaal, John Hawkes and Jason Clarke are in advanced talks to star, he confirmed."
Tidbits:
“Everest”’s net budget is “probably $50 million-to-$60million”.
“Everest” poses complexities in both its financing and the physical shoot.
Kormakur was scouting for locations in the Dolomites last week with legendary U.S. mountaineer/filmmaker Dave Breashears, who has climbed Everest five times, worked on “Cliffhanger” and “Seven Years in Tibet,” and will work as an advisor on “Everest”.
Kormakur aims to shoot on Everest, maybe up to the Khumbu Icefall, probably in the Dolomites, and in a studio in the U.K. or Iceland.
“We will work on ways to digitally enhance Everest, matching it with Dolomites and Everest, but I’ll do everything physically first. If there’s no other way, then I’ll go to CGI.”
“Everest’s” biggest challenge is most probably finding the human story in a more generic – here action-adventure – context.
“Everest” will be about “ambition, the beginning of the commercialization of Everest,” but also afford, he hoped, “an understanding of why people do this, try to climb Everest.”
“I’m particularly drawn to it because I feel it resonates with what I’m doing. I live on the edge of the world, and am pushing myself personally and professionally to hopefully reach some kind of a summit,” he added.
Thanks, Translator. That is a long story. It's worrisome that Jake is still just in talks. We've been down this road before. Things do seem further along but still.
As absurd as it sounds $50 million to $60 million isn't that much for a movie like this.
This also bugs, in comparison to other comments:
Though boasting an ensemble cast, “Everest” will be “a bit Rob Hall’s movie,” the director commented, in reference to one of the expedition leaders who cajoled a client to the top, only to stay with his stricken client when he collapsed high on the mountain, despite a deadly storm.
Oops, hit send too soon. He does mention there will be humor, which is a good thing.
Danielle, it's possible for Jake to be back on the Vineyard but it seems unlikely. Someone on FB said they saw him at Soul Cycle in NY today. Someone else saw him in LA!
Glad to hear you're okay, FP!
Hagen, thanks for the Everest article, also. Sounds like it's going to be an interesting, tough shoot.
You're welcome, UltraViolet. It was a well-written article on a movie aiming high. Forgot to mention the detail about humor.
They are all just "in advanced talks", studio speak for not yet official but it's a done deal. The issue for Jake would be timing, making the 2 schedules work, Nightcrawler-Everest back-to-back. It takes planning.
I wouldn't worry about Jason Clarke being "the star" of the movie. I think the initial script, that got Bale interested, was mainly Rob Hall's movie. Now it's just "a bit". Otherwise Rob Hall would be played by Brolin, not Clarke. In a previous article Komakur said: "Christian Bale? No, that was just for a moment, but now I can say because it's been in the media that we've been talking to Jason Clarke, Josh Brolin, John Hawkes and Jake Gyllenhaal. I want to make it more of an ensemble. Of course, their(?) stars, Josh Brolin and Jake, but more as an ensemble rather than based on one star."
A little catch up on my part: Inside the Actors Studio is a very big deal and I'm happy and proud that Jake will be part of it. Somebody asked where it tapes: in NYC.
Kormakur will next scale Everest for Universal in the fall, a project that Christian Bale circled before eventually bowing out. Instead, Kormakur reimagined Everest as an ensemble effort rather than a hero’s journey and it will star Josh Brolin, Jake Gyllenhaal, Jason Clarke and John Hawkes. The director remained philosophical about the casting shuffle.
San Sebastián Film Festival has added another six movies to the official competition. The most prominent movies are probably "The Railway Man" starring Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman and "Le Week-End" by "Notting Hill" director Roger Michell (whose previous film "Hyde Park on Hudson" got mixed reviews).
Well, if you look for clues, when Jake arrived at the airport in L.A., he is carrying two pieces of luggage, his backpack and another one.
Next, he has an assistant shopping with him at the store for groceries. He doesn't usually use an assistant unless he is going to be busy working on something, and he didn't just pick up a few things at the store, it looked like he had four bags of groceries.
Next, there's a sighting of him in L. A. yesterday. Maybe he did go back to New York this morning, and maybe he was up and out at 8 A.M. because that is the timing of this morning's sighting.
I wish and hope he was in New York because than he walks around and uses the subway, and even rides his bike. In L. A. he is driving his car, and we don't see him unless he goes where the photographers are. But I think he might still be in L.A. I, too will wait to see if we can figure out this mystery.
Hi everyone, I'm so glad to be back. I've been hospitalized due to a brain aneurysm that ruptured, to make a long story short I fainted outside my house on the past 3 of July, I wake up on the ambulance with a severe headache, vomiting and confused, in the hospital they did a TC scan and angiography and I was with a subarachnoid hemorrhage due to the ruptured aneurysm, I went into surgery that same day, then had to stay two weeks on intensive care unit and another week on the neurosurgery ward, it was the worst weeks of my life, but I'm very fortunate to be alive and almost no disability.
I've been trying to update on Jake, but I still get very tired and dizzy, but for what I know he drop out of into the woods to focus on nightcrawler, and Enemy will be competing in San Sebastian, that´s great news, maybe he will came to Portugal, who knows?
Also, it is so good to see him happy with Alyssa and I love to see the pics, he seems so relax.
Hope he does the Everest project and excited about the actors studio.
OMG. Dearest Paula C.! I'm so very sorry to hear about your health crisis. I'm glad you are coming out of it OK. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your beautiful family. Be patient and take your time. Everything will work out. ((((Paula))))
Hopefully, all this recent Jake news is a pleasant diversion that lifts your spirits. : )
Paula C - you don't know me, but I hope you have a speedy recovery. Just wanted to suggest you go buy a lotto ticket, because you are SO DAMN LUCKY(!!) to be alive!!! Wow - amazing story.
Oh Paula, that sounds scary. I'm sorry to hear about your severe health problems. But I guess you're lucky under the circumstances. I hope you recover quickly and take care of yourself.
"Enemy" gets a "Special Presentation", same section as "Prisoners".
Based on The Double by Nobel Laureate José Saramago, this film explores the troubled psyche of a man who is torn between his mistress and his wife. Jake Gyllenhaal gives a brilliant performance as both Adam and Anthony — a man and his double — engaged in a lethal and erotic battle.
Oh my God Paula I'm so sorry to hear what happened to you. I send a prayer of thanks to heaven because everything went well! I am ashamed so much that I complained about my stupid little hernia and yet you had the gentleness and sensitivity of wishing me to get well soon take care of yourself darling I am with you.
Oh Paula! I'm so glad that you're okay and so sorry you had to go through that. How scary. Please let us know if there's anything we can do for you, virtually or in "reality."
Maybe you need some of this to help you recover:
@chloesfruit @chloesfruit 3h Thanks for coming in this weekend #JakeGyllenhaal. Hope you enjoyed your Banana & Dark Chocolate Soft Serve Sundae topped w/peanut butter.
(Actually, that sounds awful to me!)
Paula, you came back on a day with a lot of news. Glad to hear Enemy will play Toronto. I hope this means there will be a poster or a trailer or something to promote it.
I also hope mermon or another bold tweeter will ask Jen McDonnell what she means about Enemy. I remember a tweeter saw it and said essentially the same thing - she wasn't sure if it was good or bad. I don't know if this is the same person.
I am an optimist by nature, but Donnie Darko at the beginning received the same reactions those who saw it for the first time were not sure if it was a mess or a masterpiece So fingers crossed for the second option!
A slighlty more discouraging (and spoilerific, so beware!) exchange on Enemy from FB:
Becca, it looks like that movie we screened is going to play TIFF
Hmm... interesting... I'm guessing it'll be better than when we saw it
I don't know how they could salvage it
Re-edit and reshoot a bunch?
Re-shoot for sure... but I don't see that happening. Especially considering the questions asked. It got some editing in but unless there were a ton of scenes missing that could have made things work better, the film isn't going to be that much better. Though I'd be surprised if the spider stayed in the final film considering feedback about it
Have to say, not really knowing the whole story, that I agree about the spider!
It is hot on the lot today...I walked out of the Valentino building and I literally almost run into Jake Gyllenhaal. Came out of the cafe (had to get my chili fix) and see Mark Curry. They have Bad Ass Burgers catering the "Instant Mom" stage and I'm just waiting to see Tia Mowry. Why did I leave my phone in my office?? Any other time it would be strapped to my hip...
Mark Curry and Instant Mom would indicate the Nickelodeon lot. The Nickelodeon lot is on Sunset. Bold Films, the Nightcrawler production company, is also on Sunset.
Glad to see that atticus is still around wonder who takes care of him? Jake sure looks happy in these new pics I wonder if atticus was too old to go with Jake to NY?
It's good to see Atticus. Maybe he is too old to go with Jake to NY. He's about 9 years old, I think. Maybe his Dad is looking after him. It's good to see them together again.
It's always good to see Atticus. It's pointless to speculate about why Jake left him in LA. I'm sure he's well cared for. And Jake looks happy to be reunited.
Between the Atticus photos and the instagram from Cafe Gratitude, we've gotten a lot of smiley Jake.
Flix had a mini-Jake marathon tonight: Brokeback Mountain and then October Sky. I didn't get a lot done tonight!
I did see one meteor in the Perseid Meteor showers, though, so woo hoo.
Jake was all smiles walking Atticus. I almost forgot that every time Jake is in LA he drops by his favorite place, the doctors office, but Jake honey, burn that plaid shirt!
A great look at the restaurant and farm fun by Jake's friend, Chris Fischer. The Obamas dined there last night, and he gives an inside peek into the experience.
If you scroll through the slides, there's a Jake mention :)
Thank you UV for finding and sharing that fantastic article about Chris Fischer and his restaurant. It made me want to be and eat there. No wonder he's Jake's friend, he seems to be very interesting, family man with a sense of humour. The way he described Dunhill bag, given him by Jake was v.funny. And that whole place on Martha Vineyard is charming. If you don't mind I'll share it too :)
You are absolutely welcome to share, Mermon! Always happy to share among Jake fans :)
It's a great article and really gives you a feel for Chris and his life and work. Makes you realize why Jake loves to spend time there.
Is this international trailer for Prisoners slightly different? It starts out the same but I think there's some stuff we haven't seen before. I can't be sure.
thanks, Monica. I had no idea who that was with Jake. I looked him up. Dan Gilroy is a screenwriter. do you think that is a script Jake had in his hand?
I wonder how long he'll be in LA, now that he's done his medical center visit. It looks like the paps were saying something to him, he was none too happy when he was getting into his car
That's a pretty good TV spot, I think. I'm pleased that Jake plays a bigger part in the movie and its marketing campaign than I expected. The pre-release buzz for "Prisoners" could be stronger though: Just slightly more than 20.000 people like the film on Facebook. On the other hand its Flixster data look solid compared to other movies.
There's still no German trailer, even though the film will be released over here in less than two months.

Wow this has become the Jake and Alyssa board. I no longer buy Jake and his claim to keep his personal life oh so private.
What private man dates Taylor Swift and a model who instragrams her entire life?
Before you say it UV, i won't be back.
It's not like that. It depends where you get the info. There are times that everything image related is about filming of a movie, we have had the Munford and Sons train phase, the bycicle phase, among others. Now, Jake is between films and what we get the most is his social life, and it's normal.
He has started a new relationship, why should he hide? I much prefer this (acting naturally, going to different places with your new GF, because you want to spend time with her obvs) than forced everything in order of avoid cameras. Do your thing
It's just a few pics, simmer down. There is tons of Jake news on this blog. Keep up the great work UV!
Jake Gyllenhaal and his model girlfriend, Alyssa Miller, in Central Park at Shakespeare in the Park’s production of “Love’s Labour’s Lost,” where an onlooker said, “So impossibly attractive, even if they weren’t famous, people would still stare” . . .
It's not like jake has to hide his life and his girlfriend because of you
Why are you so bothered?
hello sweet beautiful Lara and wise Hagen thank you for your kind messages of welcome back!
I suffered a minor surgery but now I'm fine!
obviously a warm greeting to all present!
Oh, poop. Jake's single,& he dates, even girls who weren't famous. There's a difference between a few dates, and actually trying to have a relationship with someone.
The intersection between the fashion world and the world of celebrities is pretty well established.
If he parties with them, and hangs out with and knows a lot of single girls who happen to be models, and his friends party with and date models, then he is very likely going to meet & date models. I mean it's sort of like high school for grown ups. LOL!
Honestly, who cares? Jake's got a girlfriend. Good for them. I'm glad UV posts photos, bcz yes, they're a stunning couple, and since they seem to spend a lot of time together, why ignore the fact they're a couple. As fans we talk about his career, and his friends, and his activities all the time.

Apparently Jake Gyllenhall & Alyssa Miller got off the subway in SoHo today. Apparently I was within touching distance of them.
UV your work here is amazing
no wonder they all steal from here
Jake's not doing anything different to draw attention on purpose. He is doing the stuff he always does. He is just doing it with someone special. I am happy for him. Thanks, UV.
I'm happy for him too and it's cool to hear that are hanging out at some places I have been to as well!
I'm happy for Jake and Alyssa. They look good together.

And now the last Batman/superman News. I almost stop breath when I saw the cast story about it. And now Ryan Gosling and Joe Manganiello, please no. Somebody make this stop.
Can we just say Wes Bentley is the new Batman and be done with it?
Monica, I really like Wes too i think he is deep and a really good actor. I very happy for him now that he is health.
Well, I'm thinking maybe it's about Nightcrawlers. Maybe they are getting ready to start casting & getting ready to shoot.

Very nice pictures, indeed. Thanks, Lara.
2 weeks until my first Inside the Actors Studio taping! Guest: Jake Gyllenhaal
I've never watched the show before, but it sounds promising.
Good news about actors inside the studios is it taped in LA or NY?
Have to laugh at the first pic of Jake at the grocery store he looks like a deer trapped in the head lights:)
Apparently Jake will go to San Sebastián: Sección Oficial en el Festival Internacional de Cine de San Sebastián 2013 que contará con la presencia del director y del actor Jake Gyllenhaal.
The running time of "Enemy" is 95 minutes.
Oh, I'm glad Jake will go to San Sebastian. Should get some nice photos.
I assume that is not the real poster, Hagen. Heaven forfend! Wish the movie were longer, but that will be a nice does of Jake. If we ver get to see it!
FP, did you say that you had surgery? Hope you're feeling better.
I hate these pants and hair.
Thanks for the news about Enemy and Actors Studio. This will be very good.

How can Jake be on the Vineyard when he was in LA yesterday. I know there are planes, but we saw him buying a lot of groceries. So this tweet either is a joke or a mistaken identity.
Variety caught up with "Everest" news - and it's a pretty big elaborate story on Baltasar Kormakur and the movie itself:
In practical terms:
"Produced by the U.K.’s Working Title, and skedded to roll late October/early November, the action-adventure drama of a disastrous 1996 multi-expedition assault on Everest that left eight climbers dead, is now in “soft prep,” Kormakur said on the eve of Locarno.

Hagen, thanks for the Everest article, also. Sounds like it's going to be an interesting, tough shoot.
I'll just be happy when it is confirmed that Jake is in the movie.
But I hope he does Everest. I enjoyed reading the story of the character.

I just saw Jake Gyllenhaal! Day is off to a glorious start! #Winniia
this guy is in nyc :)
Thank you, FP.
I will wait for more sightings. So many people on Twitter and Facebook joke about seeing Jake, it is very hard to keep up with.
I am not saying he is not in New York, only that I will wait to see if there are more other people who see him there.
I am very excited to hear more about this Everest movie. I hope Jake will do it. I am also proud he will do the Actors Studio.
Well, if you look for clues, when Jake arrived at the airport in L.A., he is carrying two pieces of luggage, his backpack and another one.
Next, he has an assistant shopping with him at the store for groceries. He doesn't usually use an assistant unless he is going to be busy working on something, and he didn't just pick up a few things at the store, it looked like he had four bags of groceries.

Just a reminder:

Hi everyone, I'm so glad to be back. I've been hospitalized due to a brain aneurysm that ruptured, to make a long story short I fainted outside my house on the past 3 of July, I wake up on the ambulance with a severe headache, vomiting and confused, in the hospital they did a TC scan and angiography and I was with a subarachnoid hemorrhage due to the ruptured aneurysm, I went into surgery that same day, then had to stay two weeks on intensive care unit and another week on the neurosurgery ward, it was the worst weeks of my life, but I'm very fortunate to be alive and almost no disability.
I've been trying to update on Jake, but I still get very tired and dizzy, but for what I know he drop out of into the woods to focus on nightcrawler, and Enemy will be competing in San Sebastian, that´s great news, maybe he will came to Portugal, who knows?
Also, it is so good to see him happy with Alyssa and I love to see the pics, he seems so relax.
Hope he does the Everest project and excited about the actors studio.
FP, hope your recovery is fast.
Paula so sorry to hear about what happened glad you are doing well now.Take care of yourself and keep us updated.
Yes its good to see Jake happy with someone Alyssa seems like a nice girl.
OMG. Dearest Paula C.! I'm so very sorry to hear about your health crisis. I'm glad you are coming out of it OK. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your beautiful family. Be patient and take your time. Everything will work out. ((((Paula))))
Hopefully, all this recent Jake news is a pleasant diversion that lifts your spirits. : )
Paula C - you don't know me, but I hope you have a speedy recovery. Just wanted to suggest you go buy a lotto ticket, because you are SO DAMN LUCKY(!!) to be alive!!! Wow - amazing story.
Godspeed... ;-))
Please take care of yourself Paula C, what a scare!
Glad to hear that you are doing better.
Oh Paula, that sounds scary. I'm sorry to hear about your severe health problems. But I guess you're lucky under the circumstances. I hope you recover quickly and take care of yourself.

"Jake Gyllenhaal & Denis Villeneuve team up again for another film premiering at #TIFF13, ENEMY. Already announced, PRISONERS"
"Enemy" gets a "Special Presentation", same section as "Prisoners".
Based on The Double by Nobel Laureate José Saramago, this film explores the troubled psyche of a man who is torn between his mistress and his wife. Jake Gyllenhaal gives a brilliant performance as both Adam and Anthony — a man and his double — engaged in a lethal and erotic battle.
Thanks thats good news
"Enemy" gets the same rating as "End of Watch" in Canada: 18A (Persons under 18 years of age must be accompanied by an adult.)
Oh my God Paula I'm so sorry to hear what happened to you. I send a prayer of thanks to heaven because everything went well!
I am ashamed so much that I complained about my stupid little hernia and yet you had the gentleness and sensitivity of wishing me to get well soon
take care of yourself darling I am with you.

I saw a really early cut of the Denis Villeneuve/Jake Gyllenhaal film coming to #TIFF13. It was...something
TIFF has tagged "Enemy" with "experimental + avant-garde" ( Films tagged with experimental + avant-garde).
It's great that Enemy is coming to TIFF. Wonderful news!!!
(I love seeing "Jake Gyllenhaal" and "erotic thriller" in the same sentence! LOL!)
Zoe Whittall @zoewhittall 60s
New office is attached to a hotel where apparently Jake Gyllenhaal is staying. Slightly more interesting coffee breaks.
she is in Toronto
The mystery deepens!
Jake Hamilton @JakesTakes 2m
Just booked my second set of #TIFF2013 interviews! I'll be talking with Hugh Jackman, Jake Gyllenhaal and the cast of PRISONERS!
Oh Paula! I'm so glad that you're okay and so sorry you had to go through that. How scary. Please let us know if there's anything we can do for you, virtually or in "reality."
Maybe you need some of this to help you recover:
@chloesfruit @chloesfruit 3h
Thanks for coming in this weekend #JakeGyllenhaal. Hope you enjoyed your Banana & Dark Chocolate Soft Serve Sundae topped w/peanut butter.
(Actually, that sounds awful to me!)
Paula, you came back on a day with a lot of news. Glad to hear Enemy will play Toronto. I hope this means there will be a poster or a trailer or something to promote it.
I also hope mermon or another bold tweeter will ask Jen McDonnell what she means about Enemy. I remember a tweeter saw it and said essentially the same thing - she wasn't sure if it was good or bad. I don't know if this is the same person.
Thanks to everyone for all the links and tweets.
I am an optimist by nature, but Donnie Darko at the beginning received the same reactions those who saw it for the first time were not sure if it was a mess or a masterpiece
So fingers crossed for the second option!
Paula, this is scary. Hope you get better soon.
It's great news for Enemy!
Thank you all for your wishes, I'm getting better every day and the good news is my husband is staying for one more month before returning to Norway.
PhOenicks, do you know the funniest thing, the neurosurgeon told me the exact same thing, lol.
UV,I love banana and chocolate, but can you believe I've never tasted peanut butter!
Great news that Enemy will be at TIFF,my fingers are also crossed for the masterpiece option.
Are you allergic to peanuts, Paula? I love all three flavors, but not together. And I'm dubious about vegan ice cream.
Oh, and don't forget us when you win the lottery!
Bless Mermon for being a fearless tweeter:
I saw a really early cut of the Denis Villeneuve/Jake Gyllenhaal film coming to #TIFF13. It was...something http://bit.ly/15MCyLK
Anything more you may say about the movie? How did you like Jake in double role? Adam or Anthony, which one you prefer? :)
Jake was amazing. Both very diff characters. The ending was SO WEIRD, though.
I read the book,I have a feeling they changed a lot.Like a book was not erotic at all and here I guess it is #EroticThriller?
I wouldn't have called it that, but I saw a really rough cut. Who knows what's changed
Lately? Or earlier, cause it's one month to Toronto Festival, should be ready, right?
I saw it months ago
Paula also I have never tasted peanut butter!
I guess it is not something typically European, but it looks so tasty when I see it in the movies!
A slighlty more discouraging (and spoilerific, so beware!) exchange on Enemy from FB:
Becca, it looks like that movie we screened is going to play TIFF
Hmm... interesting... I'm guessing it'll be better than when we saw it
I don't know how they could salvage it
Re-edit and reshoot a bunch?
Re-shoot for sure... but I don't see that happening. Especially considering the questions asked. It got some editing in but unless there were a ton of scenes missing that could have made things work better, the film isn't going to be that much better. Though I'd be surprised if the spider stayed in the final film considering feedback about it
Have to say, not really knowing the whole story, that I agree about the spider!

Ladies, guess who I saw @ BH Juice #jakegyllenhaal #donniedarko
IHJ has new photos. Hot.
It is hot on the lot today...I walked out of the Valentino building and I literally almost run into Jake Gyllenhaal. Came out of the cafe (had to get my chili fix) and see Mark Curry. They have Bad Ass Burgers catering the "Instant Mom" stage and I'm just waiting to see Tia Mowry. Why did I leave my phone in my office?? Any other time it would be strapped to my hip...
Mark Curry and Instant Mom would indicate the Nickelodeon lot. The Nickelodeon lot is on Sunset. Bold Films, the Nightcrawler production company, is also on Sunset.
It could also be totally unrelated, of course.

Pinkberry and Jake Gyllenhaal all in one room. Like is that every girls dream?! I have Pinkberry in hand and I just met him. Omg. DEAD.

You can see Jake (in a hoodie) at about the three-minute mark in this video.

I've played opposite Michael Fassbender, Robert Pattinson, and now Jake Gyllenhaal. How lucky am I? pic.twitter.com/FfPwcpaXhN
So many people have been tweeting and posting about Zodiac lately that I might have to watch it tonight! I liked this, on FB:
Watching Zodiac on Netflix. Jake Gyllenhaal nails Robert Graysmith who used to frequent Green Apple Books. Well done.
That's nice to hear, from someone who seemingly knew Graysmith.
It's been a long time since the last time I saw Zodiac.
I'm reading Gone Girl. I'm happy with the choice of Rosamund Pike.
Not happy with Affleck at all. I like Rosamund Pike, but I don't think she's right for the part, either.
But David Fincher never asks for my opinion!
lol Who do you wanted for the role of Amy?
Quiet day!
Monica, I'm not sure who should play Amy. But RP just doesn't feel like her. But who knows. Maybe she'll do a great job.
Quiet day today. A couple of Jake sightings. From FB:
Morning coffee in LA ......spotted Jake Gyllenhaal. Sorry no photo didn't want to appear to be a crazed fan!! — at Lamill Coffee Boutique
And this is a nice shot.
Hello everyone and happy Sunday!:)
Some Jake's sighting :)

Abril Amélie @abrilameliee 1h
Just saw Jake Gyllenhaal...well yeah he's definitely a hottie.
Finally an Atticus sighting today, now that's a hottie with Jake.
Vey
Jake and Atticus
Glad to see that atticus is still around wonder who takes care of him? Jake sure looks happy in these new pics I wonder if atticus was too old to go with Jake to NY?
I was thinking the same thing Mary, Atticus is old
Perhaps his father has him. I think he lives in L.A.
Good to see him again!
It's good to see Atticus. Maybe he is too old to go with Jake to NY. He's about 9 years old, I think. Maybe his Dad is looking after him. It's good to see them together again.

Out For Dinner With A Friend In LA

It's always good to see Atticus. It's pointless to speculate about why Jake left him in LA. I'm sure he's well cared for. And Jake looks happy to be reunited.
Between the Atticus photos and the instagram from Cafe Gratitude, we've gotten a lot of smiley Jake.
Flix had a mini-Jake marathon tonight: Brokeback Mountain and then October Sky. I didn't get a lot done tonight!
I did see one meteor in the Perseid Meteor showers, though, so woo hoo.
Cute blog account from someone who saw Jake at the Farmers Market yesterday.
Good to see Atticus again :)

Jake got dressed up for the doctors office yesterday-pics over at IHJ.
Jake looks like he lost a bit of weight in the new photos. All the juicing, etc. Getting ready to get in front of the cameras? Yaaay!
Found this on Twitter:
"Auditioning for Dan Gilroy/Jake Gyllenhaal film for the role of...wait for it...REPORTER!! And my BA in Journalism is about to pay off!! :)"
From last night.
Jake was all smiles walking Atticus.
I almost forgot that every time Jake is in LA he drops by his favorite place, the doctors office, but Jake honey, burn that plaid shirt!
Jake Gyllenhaal and Dan Gilroy: IHJ
Thanks for the photo links, FP and Monica. I'm pretty underwhelmed by Prisoners promotions so far. I hope they kick things into gear.
Nice to see Jake getting to work. Thanks for that audition tweet, Bobbyanna.
Saw this on FB just now:
Guess I have good resturant taste. Sitting close to Jake Gyllenhaal. — at Cafe Gratitude.
2 minutes ago in Los Angeles, CA
They must be happy Jake is back in town!
A great look at the restaurant and farm fun by Jake's friend, Chris Fischer. The Obamas dined there last night, and he gives an inside peek into the experience.
If you scroll through the slides, there's a Jake mention :)
I knew that was a parking ticket on Jake's Audi. It looks like the same lady that gave him a ticket about 2 years ago.
Thank you UV for finding and sharing that fantastic article about Chris Fischer and his restaurant. It made me want to be and eat there. No wonder he's Jake's friend, he seems to be very interesting, family man with a sense of humour. The way he described Dunhill bag, given him by Jake was v.funny. And that whole place on Martha Vineyard is charming.
If you don't mind I'll share it too :)
You are absolutely welcome to share, Mermon! Always happy to share among Jake fans :)
It's a great article and really gives you a feel for Chris and his life and work. Makes you realize why Jake loves to spend time there.
Is this international trailer for Prisoners slightly different? It starts out the same but I think there's some stuff we haven't seen before. I can't be sure.
thanks, Monica. I had no idea who that was with Jake. I looked him up. Dan Gilroy is a screenwriter. do you think that is a script Jake had in his hand?
I wonder how long he'll be in LA, now that he's done his medical center visit. It looks like the paps were saying something to him, he was none too happy when he was getting into his car
Lily
Lily, Dan Gilroy is the writer and producer of Nightcrawler, Jake's next movie.
This tweeter is volunteering to ask Jake a question on Inside the Actors Studio if you want to send him one.
It's so good to see Atticus again snd Jake in L.A busy at work! I had no idea Dan Gilroy is the producer and writer for Nightcrawler:) :)
Thanks for the link UV, The Actors Studio, yes!!
TV Spot: Prisoners
TV Spot: Prisoners
That's a pretty good TV spot, I think. I'm pleased that Jake plays a bigger part in the movie and its marketing campaign than I expected. The pre-release buzz for "Prisoners" could be stronger though: Just slightly more than 20.000 people like the film on Facebook. On the other hand its Flixster data look solid compared to other movies.
There's still no German trailer, even though the film will be released over here in less than two months.
Thanks, Monica. Nice to see something, but like Hagen, I wish there was more out there.
Put up a new post with the spot, at least.
