As Jake Gyllenhaal films Nocturnal Animals and does some light awards promotion for Southpaw, the DVD comes out in the U.S.
There's not much other news after the avalanche of Southpaw and Everest. So let's take a look at some old videos floating around. I hadn't seen this one before - Jake and Jason Clarke discuss Everest:
They had good chemistry in interviews. Would love to have seen more promo from them together.

Michael Shannon interview w/ Awardsdaily.com
AD: What’s next?
MS: Right now, I’m shooting a Tom Ford movie called Nocturnal Animals. It’s a beautiful script. Jake Gyllenhaal and Amy Adams are the stars. I’m such a big fan of Jake. We’ve been itching to do something together. He’s great in everything he does.
I don’t know when it’ll be out, we’re shooting it right now. I’m back to work tomorrow.
After seeing Our Brand Is Crisis in Toronto, I have even lower hopes/expectations for the Marathon movie. I hope they surprise me.
This was around a few weeks ago, but I don't think it was ever posted here. Very young Jake and Jason Segel in a production of West Side Story.
What was the first movie Jake ever saw in a theater?
Thanks for the post / videos, UV! hadn't seen all of those :)

1) Nocturnal Animals
2) The current war
3) The man who made it snow
4) Stronger
5) Okja
Go Jake!
So previous IHJ pics are photoshop?
1. Nocturnal Animals
2. Stronger
3. TMWMIS
- and the other two... I feel like we've hardly had any details yet. I need to know more before commenting. I'll probably get excited for those in 2017 or so ;)
Happy Halloween!
What photos are you talking about, anon? Why photoshop?
You are one of those who think that all Jake photos are photoshop?
Based on these new pictures I guess that Tom Ford hasn't changed the end of "Tony & Susan".
Deadline: True Blood‘s Kristin Bauer Van Straten has joined the cast of Nocturnal Animals. Van Straten is playing Samantha, Susan’s opinionated boss.
I don't remember that Susan had a boss in "Tony and Susan". Tom Ford probably embellished Amy Adams' part in "Nocturnal Animals".
Monica no, I reacted on previous anon's post saying that in one week he is back with his "muscular" legs, whilst they are so skinny on IHJ pics. Please read properly those comments before you write something.
"Please read properly those comments before you write something."
Come on. That comment isn't necessary.
I wish all anons would choose a name, so we know who we're talking to.
Thanks UV haven't seen a lot of this , looking forward to the Southpaw DVD release!
Let' s see:
1. Nocturnal animals
2. The man who made it snow
3. Stronger
4. The current war
5. Okja
Glad the videos are new for some folks :) I haven't gotten the DVD yet. I hear there are deleted scenes. I hope some are with Rachel Macadams.
Good question, anon. Things have been pretty slow around here. The order of what I'd rather see:
1. Nocturnal Animals
2. The Current War
3. The Man Who Made It Snow
4. Okja
5. Stronger
#4 and #5 could easily flip.
What's probably better for Jake:
1. Nocturnal Animals
2. The Current War
3. Okra
4. Stronger
5. The Man Who Made It Snow
In a way, I should put Stronger at #1, as they should film it in Boston, and it will be fun to hear of Jake sightings around town.
I wish all anons would choose a name, so we know who we're talking to.
Amen, BJ! Sadly, it will never happen.

Just when I thought working with #JakeGyllenhaal couldn't get any better. Damn he's smart!!!
So previous IHJ pics are photoshop?
Nonsense, it just means the perception was wrong. He lost weight but not as much as people made it out to be. I mean, based on the new pics no one would see any weight loss. Baggy or tight clothes, certain angles can alter perception.
It also means that people are quick to criticize, bitch and moan, respond to perceived negative aspects rather than the positive ones.
Case in point: the weight thing drew more than 200 comments on GB. But when UV made a new post with new information alongside throwback videos and highschool theatre pics, the silence was deafening until Unknown came up with a fun idea.
I have 2 lists.
Based on these movies' potential (or prospects):
1. Nocturnal Animals (good stories; better characters / promising stylish director / big Cannes pre-sale / good buzz / Focus)
2. Stronger (touching real-life story; strong characters / highs&lows director with bad buzz after "Crisis" / Lionsgate)
3. Man Who Made It Snow (gripping real-life story; intriguing character / director with bad buzz but good BO / Weinstein)
4. The Current War (period piece / story with dull premise / director with good buzz / Weinstein)
5. Okja (no story details, except a premise that sounds cheesy / supporting character, possibly a cameo / imaginative director / no distributor)
Based on the potential of Jake's performances in these movies:
1. Stronger – the type of character an actor has the opportunity to play 2 or 3 times in his career (there aren't many "challenged" characters in Redmayne’s future). I don’t mean awards bait, I mean the opportunity for a poignant character study based on a real person who survived horrific circumstances and came out "whole" in spite of the physical limitations. Could be Jake's most powerful performance.
2-3. (tied) Nocturnal Animals / Man Who Made It Snow – he plays two characters in NA, double opportunity / I find Max Mermelstein more interesting than Tony and Edward
4. The Current War – neither character sounds "electrifying" but there’s potential for good dialogue and an actorly duet
5. Okja – playing who-knows-what in a monster movie? potential for an iconic character or a disaster
"3. Okra"
LOL, Yes can't wait for Jake to play another slimy character.
Hmm, its odd that box office mojo has Southpaw at 104 million worldwide but Numbrs has it at 88 million. Usually Mojo is way behind in calculating the box office for Jake's movies.
Did SP open in China or is Mojo just plain wrong again?
LOL, Okra. Oops!
Darcy, I appreciate the support, but the last post had many, many comments before the weight issue came up. And as someone who thought Jake looked Loo Bloomish, I understood the discussion. He looks pretty thin in the Hollywood Film Awards photos and footage, as well.
Interesting thoughts on the roles Jake will actually play v. whether they are good box office prospects. I hope at least one of them will score on both levels.
Not sure what's happening with those Southpaw numbers. Would love BOM to be right, but as you said, they are usually way behind. I know Everest is going to open in China this week, but I don't think Southpaw has.

The Jake and Carey videos don't play for me, but the Jamie, Johnny(!!!) & Jake video does - Jake is like "what the f*, I'm standing next to Johnny Depp" :)))
Excellent!

Yep. I don't know what is happening to his mouth, his lips look thinner. This loss / gain of weight is not doing well to his face. He looks older.
Guys here's the periscope link. http://youtu.be/xsbS0uLRb1Q
Jake is looking thinner but not as gaunt as HFA 2013. Still looks pretty good in this video!

Jake is looking thinner but not as gaunt as HFA 2013.
That's what I think, too. However I'm not sure if it's really necessary to lose that much weight for this role. Even if his character is a bit of a pushover, he isn't described as physically weak in the book. A hunky look would have been inappropriate, but a more average figure would have been fine.
Internationally "Southpaw" has grossed just as much as "The Fighter" ($35.8 million).
If this is true, then this is an awesome costume

Jake Gyllenhaal at the Maroon Five Halloween Party in Los Angeles.
where did that Halloween party pic come from?
Stephanie now has it up on IHJ, it appears to be legit. The Maroon Five Halloween party.
Jake's glow in the dark Halloween costume reminds me of Jamie Foxx's character in Spiderman. Is that who he is supposed to be?

I feel like Tom Ford is really working the "double"/mirroring angle in this movie and it's Story-in-Story conceit. Isla Fisher and Amy Adams are obvious mirrors, so then the case becomes who is Tony/Jake's? At first I wanted to say Armie Hammer, but I feel like Aaron Taylor Johnson came into the project looking the most like Jake--longer hair, beard. But I just assumed he was one of the men Laura and Tony meet. So he'd be an odd mirror. Logically, it should be Edward. Has anyone seen what Armie Hammer looks like for this role? If he's oddly slim for it, we'll have some insight.
I agree, tho, the weight loss seems a bit much for this character. Certainly Tom Ford could have crafted the script to incorporate something that accounts for Tony's skinnier look, and he then took advantage of Jake's recent willingness to equate weight loss/gain with dedication to his "craft." I say that last part with both kind humor and a bit of critique-I don't get his hang-up with body transformation as a significant demonstration of acting technique. Or more accurately, I don't get why he does it so often as of late.
Maybe is just me, but I don't find the weight loss that big of a deal. I was watching LAOD the other day and I don't think he looks skinnier than he did for that movie.
^^^^^^
I agree with Piruleta. He looks a lot like Jamie Randall did.
In my view Jake had much more muscles in LAOD.
His Halloween costume looks really cool. :thumbs up:

Armie Hammer plays Susan's husband and Aaron Taylor-Johnson 'a mysterious figure who may pose a threat to Gyllenhaal’s family' as Variety puts it. Michael Shannon embodies a detective. I thought that Jake would play both Tony and Edward (?)
In my view Jake had much more muscles in LAOD.
yep
I agree, tho, the weight loss seems a bit much for this character.
I also agree.Edward is thin and Tony can't look in shape, but I think it is beyond what I expected. in fact, I didn't expect weight loss. I thought he was going to have the look of Enemy.
I hope Tom will keep Aaron's character as in the book. I really liked his character, he's so much fun!
-I don't get his hang-up with body transformation as a significant demonstration of acting technique. Or more accurately, I don't get why he does it so often as of late.
If Tom Ford wanted him to do it for the film then how is it Jake's hangup? We won't really know until Jake talks about it who's decision it was and how he felt about it.
He made the decision for Nightcrawler and it fit. He had to bulk up to play a boxer in SP otherwise it wouldn't have the same effect. Despite the beard/hair he was normal body type for Everest and in Demolition he's got his usual physique. I think it will work for Nocturnal Animals especially because he's playing two characters, otherwise it might look too much like Enemy if he had the exact same look.
I don't mind the weight loss, it's that massive hair slicked back. I wish he would just let that beautiful hair be free but Jake didn't consult me.
" i wish he would just let that beautiful hair be free but Jake didn't consult me." So true! He really does have gorgeous hair which almost always seems to be under a hat, weighed down by a pint of gel, or in a beanie or shaved! Why!!??
Also his body was HOT in LAOD, not quite the same for Nocturnal Animals.
- Malavika
If it's up to me he looks like in Prisoners all the time. But because it's up to him I have to accept it and take it. Btw. it seems he adjusts his look quite often according his needs, what I am not able to do, it's like Coca Cola secret receipt I'd need to know.
"it's like Coca Cola secret receipt"
LOL! The Jake Gyllenhaal secret receipt for good hair! :)))
There are still YouTube videos that show men how to get Loki hair.
Yeah, the hair makes it all worse. Tom Ford has definitely let us down. There are people who love this style, inexplicably.
This article talks about how the HFAwards are pretty much a joke. Some funny lines in there.
A production page for Stronger. More and more info pointing to March, 2016, as the start of production.
I don't feel let down by Tom Ford. In the first set pics of Jake with Isla Fisher, he looked great. And I didn't think the second set of him after he shaved were awful. Plus, that's only a small set of pics from the film so I'll wait until I see the film before I say that he let me down.
CAST: Jake Gyllenhaal, Tatiana Maslany
Tatiana gets her wish. As for Jake's appearance in NA, I like the hair onset so far, it's not gel. Let's face it, Jake has a gigantic head and big eyes. The weight loss in his face is more dominant when the hair slicked back. But I really thought it looked good in the bloody pics.
A lot of these videos are new to me as well, thanks UV :)
I love Jake's Halloween costume, awesome and creepy!
I'm not a fan of Jake's look in NA from what I have seen so far, looks very gaunt and and I'm not feeling the slicked back hair either.
Hey, chica!
Ann, I was just making a joke. I expected Jake to look smoking hot in a Tom Ford movie, and so far, I've been disappointed. But who knows how everything will look once it's onscreen.
Imagine this :)
Q: Any memorable episodes during the shoot?
A: When we were shooting right on the bridge, the yaks started panicking and stampeded toward us. Jason (Clarke) got kicked; people were falling over, and there was no escape. There were a lot of dangerous or scary situations (like this) but we were never in mortal danger.
There would be nights when Jake (Gyllenhaal) would get a guitar, and play and sing. I’d be thinking, “I’m the luckiest girl in the world. Sitting here in front of a campfire listening to Jake serenade me with a new song.”
I’ve been a huge fan of so many of these actors, and to be able to go to Everest and to be able to play such a wonderful woman as Yasuko, it’s a huge honor.
New Spiderman:
My industry role model: Jake Gyllenhaal. I just haven't seen a film that Jake has been bad in. He makes clever and creative choices. He's someone I want to work with in the future.
The German steelbook edition of "Southpaw" will be released on January 8 and contain 45 minutes of bonus material, including deleted scenes and some featurettes. Has anyone seen the American edition and can tell me which scenes were deleted?
"The German steelbook edition of "Southpaw" will be released on January 8 and contain 45 minutes of bonus material, including deleted scenes and some featurettes."
:))) If it's just as fabulous as the German steelbook and / or collectors edition of 'Enemy', I'm in! Thanks, Hagen! i'll certainly buy a copy!
For some strange reason, many Dutch editions of Jake's films don't have a lot of bonus material. And would you believe 'Nightcrawler' hasn't even been released on DVD in The Netherlands (yet)?! Honestly. I had to buy the British edition.
I haven't read anything about the American DVD / Blu-ray of 'Southpaw'. Does it have any bonus material at all? Have any of you bought it yet?
Anyone want to have a guess when Nocturnal Animals might come out? I think we'll be getting it in October/November 2016.
sammy
Jake's official page says 2017 for NA but that could mean nothing as it also says no TBA for Demolition which has an official studio release date I thought.
Tom Ford himself said it's coming out in fall 2016.

Someone knows that Jake will be there at Los Cabos International Film Festival?
News about Okja (The Verge):
Netflix backs South Korean monster movie starring Tilda Swinton and Jake Gyllenhaal
Netflix and Brad Pitt's Plan B production company have signed on to Okja, a monster movie from Snowpiercer director Bong Joon-ho. As Variety reports, Netflix is investing in the film, and Plan B is co-producing it. South Korea's Yonhap news agency reports that Netflix is investing $50 million in the project.
Okja's cast includes Tilda Swinton, Jake Gyllenhaal, Paul Dano, Bill Nighy, and Kelly MacDonald. According to The Wrap, the film's narrative centers around a young Korean girl's friendship with a monster named Okja, who is apparently not that scary.
"It is a bulky animal, but with a mild and kind spirit," Bong said in a statement Monday. "The film is about a warm friendship between a country girl and a brute with stories."
Okja is currently in pre-production, and is expected to be released in theaters during the first half of 2017.
That's a project I'm looking for: Renowed director, a very fine cast and a substantial budget.
"...a young Korean girl's friendship with a monster named Okja, who is apparently not that scary."
And suddenly I have flashbacks of E.T. ;)
Sasha Stone @AwardsDaily 13m13 minutes ago
Jake Gyllenhaal, Kerry Washington, Lawrence Bender, Gus Van Sant and Nnamdi Asomugha also holding special screening for Beasts of No Nation!
"Renowed director, a very fine cast and a substantial budget."
What good is that if the movie does not have a wide release if Netflix is involved. Big distributors have boycotted Netflix movies but if Plan B and Brad Pitt are involved then maybe it has a chance of a wide release.
I thought the article in either Deadline or Variety made it sound like his role in Okja was pretty small...?
RE: Dr's office pics-with the hat and shades on, it's hard to gauge his weight status at the moment. The clothes are so baggy that they add bulk--it's only if his eyes that that prominent sunken look that we'll know if he's still extra slim. Though I suppose these frequent dr visits are good-I'm sure film insurance has to keep an eye on his weight and overall health before clearing his for another project.
Are there any deleted scenes on the US edition of Southpaw? I haven't seen any gif sets of scenes on Tumblr that look new footage to me. I was just going to watch again On Demand, but I'll get my hands on the disc if there's worthy extras.
I sorta hoped we'd get more Billy & Maureen. I feel like Rachel was on set more than her time in the film reflects.
Tia
I finally watched the deleted scenes. They last about 20 minutes in total. There is more of Billy and Maureen, but still not enough, sadly. There's some intense stuff in there.
The cast Q&A is definitely one we've seen before. I don't remember the other extras.
Wasn't Jake p*ssed off that Rachel wasn't working more (on Southpaw)? I seem to remember reading something like that.

Thanks for the answer. :-)
Apparently Weinstein has sent out screeners for "Southpaw".
"Nocturnal Animals" might turn out to be a 'beautiful people in beautiful settings' kind of movie. They've been casting older and very young looking models and the scenery looks much fancier than I imagined it reading the book (Awardswatch).
"Wasn't Jake p*ssed off that Rachel wasn't working more (on Southpaw)?"
Jake was pissed off about the script???
That doesn't make sense.
"Nocturnal Animals" might turn out to be a 'beautiful people in beautiful settings' kind of movie"
Most people know that Tom Ford does shoot beauty well but if he can dress up violence than I am all for it. Besides Awardswatch has probably saw the exact same set pics the rest of us have seen so I am not sure how a bloody Jake can be beautiful.
I miss Jake doing promo :(
"I miss Jake doing promo :("
I know what you mean ;) It's so quiet!
According ONTD, the medical building Jake frequents (which is hopefully nothing more than insurance for work) specializes in ear, nose and throat, a dentist, physical therapist and a therapist.
Here's hoping it's the fancy dermatologist that looks like it'll cost an arm an a leg!
Random question, do you all go to the doctor a lot for check-ups? I haven't been in about 5 years...is that normal/abnormal?
RIP to those in France, and prayers for their families.
Hope everyone is having a safe weekend. Mad times.
Pray for Paris
Another awful night. I'll never comprehend such brutality.
As for the medical building photos, I have to just ask people to stop speculating that it's some kind of insurance thing. (This isn't aimed solely at you, anon 9:42. People say this whenever there are photos form that place.)
We have no idea why Jake goes there. Maybe he's going to the dentist. Maybe he's seeing his shrink. It could be anything and it is absolutely none of our business. It's bad enough he has his photo taken going to the doctors. We don't have to add to the invasion of privacy by trying to figure out what he's doing there.
On that same note... some tweets about Jake over the past few days:
Trying Blue Bottle Coffee first time. Stumbling into Jake Gyllenhaal on the way in and Kate Mara on the way out. Good coffee.
First official day of #LosCabos4: off to presser in honour of Jean-Marc Vallee. (Got to see Demolition last night - Gyllenhaal is great)
Guys I just ran into Jake Gyllenhaal... Like literally😍 My life has been made!
I saw your snap!! I was dying!!! Lucky!!!
he was so nice!!☺️
His eyes and jaw line are even more amazing in person
Today:
first, puppies greeted me outside @CycleHouseLA, & then a jake gyllenhaal sighting at @BlueBottle_LA...def needed both on this tough AM! 💗
Sightings! Love it. He's been in hiding.
Agreed with everything you said, UV.
I feel like I should be nervous being in London at the moment. What a horrible state things are in.
Btw, I went to the Prince Charles Cinema in Leicester Square (shows a mixture of current and old movies) and watched Donnie Darko. It was packed! I hadn't seen DD in a while, and it was lovely watching it again with older eyes, and with an audience. I had forgotten what a good soundtrack it has.
Sal
The British love 'Donnie Darko'! It had / has a huge cult following over there.
Still shocked over Paris. What kind of world are we living in? *sad*

When Jake Gyllenhaal and Amy Adams were at #UCLA shooting a film and you miss it...
4:45 PM - 15 Nov 2015
So Jake and Amy filmed scenes at UCLA today. Susan and her ex-husband were childhood sweethearts who reconnected in college. Can't wait to see what Ford did to make Jake and Amy look like college students.
Maybe they're just reminiscing and it's not exactly flashbacks.
I think i've heard Tom Ford say he's basically creating a new second half of the movie and it won't follow the book.
Alex
Sal, how cool to see Donnie Darko on the big screen! I'd love a chance to do that.
Lots of Jake sightings at UCLA today and apparently at dinner somewhere Saturday night. Someone on AW said the shoot is almost over, according to a crew member's IG.
From twitter just now:
Trying to contain my inner teenage girl as I realize Jake Gyllenhaal is standing next to me at In-N-Out ordering three Double-Doubles. 😳
Yeah if you follow the Amy and Jake tags on twitter, there's numerous people who are saying they saw both on set. UCLA doesn't have cameras i suppose seeing as no one could take a pic. :-)
As for the movie wrapping pretty soon, Tom Ford said he had a 8 weeks period free so he had to shoot and wrap with that time frame or the movie's shooting would've been delayed till next year.
Vulture’s Most Valuable Stars Of 2015
31. Jake Gyllenhaal
He's gone from blockbuster leading man to critical favorite.
Jake Gyllenhaal has one of the highest critical scores on this list, and it’s no wonder: The Oscar-nominated heartthrob has been deep-diving into drama over the last few years, turning in acclaimed performances in movies like Nightcrawler, Prisoners, and Southpaw. While Gyllenhaal isn’t exactly setting the box office on fire — he’s only been in one movie that hit $100 million domestically, 2004’s The Day After Tomorrow — he still enjoys high name recognition and has a career arc that’s catnip to every hot director.
What's great is that his high critical score (69) is on par with DiCaprio and Tom Hardy. Better critics' score than Hanks, Pitt, Clooney, DDL, Bale, Damon, McC, Cooper, Bennie, Ruffalo and Gosling, better than Meryl, Julianne, Emily, Amy, Reese, Anne and Chastain. Only Joaquin, Fassbender and (baffling) Affleck have higher scores.
At no.31, he's 26 spots up from last year and 58 spots up from 2012.
While Gyllenhaal isn’t exactly setting the box office on fire
'cause Gosling is? He's currently below Jake, at no.40 (two years ago he was at 22), with the same studio value (7), same Oscar nod, but lower critical praise (62) and lower domestic BO, so why is he getting, at least apparently, better offers?
he still enjoys high name recognition and has a career arc that’s catnip to every hot director
I know hot directors should be highly interested in working with Jake, they should "go crazy" over him, but so far it hasn't happened. Hopefully his future indies co-produced with Bold will be under Cary Fukunaga's direction, Chazelle or Refn. If not Linklater, Cuaron or Inarritu.
A producer for The Voice and other TV shows who frequently visits Nocturnal Animals sets posted a UCLA vine from Sunday's set and tweeted a pic of Jake's chair.
A good account to follow since she often tweets about Jake: his BAFTA interview , a backstage pic from HFA and something we heard about from Sasha Stone, Jake hosting a screening for Beasts of No Nation, an event that apparently took place on Nov. 10.
The costume designer also posted a pic from yesterday's set with the hashtag #sunday is monday. They're seemingly rushing to wrap the movie.
It syncs with Jake's THR interview for Hollywood Masters series, scheduled for November 18.
The Hollywood Masters series continues on campus throughout most of November. For the final installment of the season, moderator Stephen Galloway, the executive editor of features at The Hollywood Reporter, will sit down with none other than “Nightcrawler” star Jake Gyllenhaal. [...] Gyllenhaal will be on campus at Mayer Theater for the Hollywood Masters series on Wednesday, Nov. 18.
Next week we'll have a 90 min. long interview to watch and read.
Speaking of new interviews, Jeff Vespa tweeted about his Jake cover for TheWrap Awards Issue and a vine on his IG
Another long interview to read and listen on the podcast, but when?
Goodness Jake is gorgeous on that cover of the Wrap.
Guy's on AW someone is saying there's set pics of Amy and Jake but I'm not sure how to link them here. But thought I'd let you know.These are the pics I've been waiting for if this is true.

Really not feeling the hairstyle!
You can see the new pics at this account. They look great, well Jake certainly does... He has 99% the Jaime look from LAOD.
BlueJean called it weeks ago: it was the dreadful hair that made people say he looked Nightcrawlerish, when he actually had the bodyframe from LAOD, he just needed a decent haircut.
Someone asked how Tom Ford would make Jake and Amy look like the college graduates that Edward and Susan were during their marriage. The answer was simple, at least in Jake's case: a clean-shaved face and a nice haircut. It works!
It's a '90s hairstyle because, like LAOD, it fits that time period. For the movie, if the year of Susan's frame story (when she receives the manuscript) is 2015, then hers and Edward's marriage happened during the '90s.
The hairstyle reminds of Loki's a little bit on the sides at least.
Daily Mail has the pics with better quality: Nocturnal Animals
Jamie (LAOD) is good and Loki is good! :)
Jake looks great!
The Wrap cover - he looks like he did on the Off Camera (magazine) cover, which he did directly after Broadway, I believe.
Edward's hairstyle is exactly the same as Jamie's in LAOD. Almost like looking in a mirror.
It is! And Jamie is like 6 or 7 years ago - he really hasn't aged much. Incredible how much difference a good shave makes! ;)

I just stating my opinion Darcy, the sides are a lot like Loki's.
No problem, Scott. I didn't mean to contest your opinion (he may look a bit like Loki, too, only Loki had a couple of extra pounds). Just that the similarities to Jamie from LAOD are striking and it's something I didn't expect. Frankly, I didn't expect Edward to look so good (in this version, Susan should have less reasons to do...what she does in the book).
Incredible how much difference a good shave makes! ;)
Yes, BlueJean! That and a decent haircut.
I think what we see in the movie and what those of us have read from the book , there won't be much similarities. Sure the lead characters are the same and some of the events of the movie will stay true to the book but i think a lot of it will be different. Tom Ford said I believe that he's done a brand new second portion of the movie.

There are new pics of Jake on the set of NA, he looks so young and freaking hot. I don't know where the twitter account got the photos but Jake looks so ruggedly yummy.

Variety: Jake Gyllenhaal To Be Feted With Variety‘s International Star of the Year Award At Dubai Film Festival
Steven Gaydos, Vice President, Executive Editor, Variety added: “Jake Gyllenhaal’s promise as an actor was clear almost from the beginning of his illustrious career. ‘Donnie Darko’ is a cult classic and his work in films such as ‘October Sky,’ ‘The Good Girl’ and ‘Moonlight Mile’ signalled the emergence of a major new acting talent. While his Oscar-nominated turn in ‘Brokeback Mountain’ delivered on that promise, the last few years have witnessed an explosion of great work that matches the best actors of any generation. ‘Southpaw,’ ‘Nightcrawler,’ ‘Enemy,’ ‘Prisoners,’ ‘Everest,’ and ‘End of Watch’ all demonstrate this vital young artist’s skills, amazing range, and the depths to which he’ll travel to find his own unique truth and personal insights into each of these complex and often haunted characters.”
A public ‘In Conversation’ Q&A with Jake Gyllenhaal will be held during the fest.
Variety annually presents this award to a great film personality during Dubai in acknowledgment of their outstanding contribution to the industry.
The 12th edition of the Dubai fest will run December 9-16.
Saw the Dubai articles yesterday but I didn't know if they were true. There were so many sightings of Jake in Dubai in the last few months.

He is sporting the LAOD hair for NA looking at this on set pics and he looks good :)
Yeah it looks like the movie from what I am seeing and hearing will depart from the book a bit or more.
He is so gorgeous in those rain pics but that one pic reminds me of the movie The Shining. I hold out in fruitless hope that Jake will be cast in the lead in the Shining Prequel.
He looks really good in these set pictures, definitely a LAOD vibe :)
Read the book and it does sound like Ford will be taking the story in a different zone.
Jake in Dubai for DIFF and receiving an award no less! so excited to see him on home ground! Have to get myself to the Q&A, awards ceremony and maybe even after party if I'm lucky! Yay!

Hope you get to see him Malavika. He will be in Austin in March and so will I.
Jealous of you both ;) here's hoping he does a Q&A in London.

Lainey???
Please don't post links to that trash blog.
LOL:
David Beckham is the Sexiest Man Alive®. But we're burying the lede, which is that Jake Gyllenhaal has apparently died.
Yup, People got it wrong for the 12th year in a row!
I still think Jake is too skinny and I don't love the hair. He does look like Jamie Randall. But JR hair wasn't my favorite either. Reserving judgment until I see the moving image.
Good for Jake, picking up an award and getting to go to Dubai. Malavika, please keep us updated. So exciting for you!
And Scott, I hope you get to see Jake in March, as well. We need some GB roving reporters.
