New Jake



As the interwebs buzz about the possibility of Jake starring in a reboot of the Bourne series, we get a new, short clip of a new Jake in Source Code:





We also have a brief clip of Jake talking about his character. We've seen some of the interview before. This is from the DVD release of Love & Other Drugs:



And a series of Jake and Anne scenes from L&OD:

Jake Oscar Firsts

Update: First TV spot for Source Code. Slightly spoilery.



And a new trailer:







It's Academy Award week in Hollywood. As we saw last year, Jake is an old pro at this now. But the AP asked a few stars about their first Oscar experience. It's unclear if Jake is referring to the first time he attended or the first time he was nominated:

Jake Gyllenhaal was totally overwhelmed: "It's like this mind-blowingly intense situation. And, yet, at the same time, oddly normal, which makes it even more strange. I remember George Clooney shaking my hand at one point as I was walking to my seat, and not believing it. And I remember so many — a sea of famous people's faces, I remember that."



Let's take a look back at Jake's virgin Oscar experiences.

First Oscar show rehearsal:




First Oscar red carpet:



First Oscar presentation:



First Oscar nomination:




First Oscars as a nominee:




First party as an Oscar also-ran. Boo! Also, without an Oscar, Jake apparently needed his ID.




Of course, there are also the less traditional Oscar firsts, like the pre-Oscar party photo bomb:



And the bomber becoming the victim of a savvy Oscar first-time bomber:



What Oscar firsts, Jake or non_jake, do you remember? And what non-Oscar Jake firsts stand out? Like your first Jake movie, etc.

West Coast time



Update: A scene from Source Code. Spoiler (and frost) warning!






Jake Gyllenhaal was spotted in Silver Lake on Wednesday, apparently trying to avoid both the rain and the paps.


I'm digging the left-profile, dramatic portraits.



Looks like he's a little out of practice running from the cameras!


"Ding dong!"


Also, I think I had that jacket in high school. A long time ago.
