Thanks for sharing this interview Sasha, and all the time that you're taking in traslating it! Maybe you just need to make cooking more sensual. I could imagine cooking with Jake could be a very special event. If it was just him and I, knowing that noone will come in or disturb us. Not that it would still have a lot to do with watching a cooking show, maybe the "result" would not even be edible, but I am very sure my "hunger" would have been satisfied. *Bad me for getting carried away again...* Sasha don't get me wrong, i'm cooking, and i'm quite damn good in cooking, is something tha i do daily, it's not always such pleasent .... Cooking has nothing to do with sensuality or seduce someone, in my pov, and you cannot be sensual while you're cooking, or you're focusing to recipes or you're flirting, just my tow basing of course on my personal experience... ;D And i'm sorry for Mr Gyllenhaal but i'm not willing to spend my day in kitchen for him...better bedroom at leats, or we can arrange a scene remake on kitchen table from The Postman Always Rings Twice actually this the best i have to offer LOL

Thanks so much for sharing Deyang this fan art movie poster, i'm not too keen with Nicholas Sparks movie, let's what's round the corner. About Gyllenhaal's next project, everytime that this question comes up i smile a bit, as i really don't see why been worried if Gyllenhaal stop and take his time to selecting and evaluating new projects, in short, he has made many movies in just more of one year, I don't belive that if he takes a breack could be a damage. About POP and collateral damage is useless to complain, Gyllenhaal alone couldn't support a movie that had several deficiencies, and if I have to see him reduced to making movies like those Jolie or Pitt, just box office mainly, better than he don't do nothing right now, as I said sometimes few but good.

Jake is slogging away right now: making independent, relatively small-budget movies. I think he is still choosy about his projects, and doesn't work on anything he doesn't like. He's played such a range of characters in the past few years too. That in itself is good thing for an actor, and I am hoping that if he keeps doing that, he will have a real hit and move up to be a bigger star. We Gyllenhaalics will go see him in anything, of course, but he needs to widen his appeal, and he can only do that by continuing to make movies. I agree with most of your thoughts, Evie, but I am not sure Jake does. Meaning: I am not sure he's looking to be up there with the Depps, Pitts and Jolies of his time. Sometimes I think we want this for him more than he does. Of course he wants success and he wants people to see his stuff or he would stop acting all together. But I think he enjoys his life the way it is. He does not like to have paps all over his life even now, it would only get worse if he was more successful. Just look at what Pitt and Jolie have to go through. Even their kids get dragged all over the news. Their poor little girl Shilo - they are discussing that girls sexual orientation because she is usually dressed like a boy - the girl is not even a first grader yet, for god's sake! I don't think that this is something Jake would want for his own family. And really - fame and money doesn't make you happy, family and love do. And Jake knows this, I'm sure. I think he found the perfect balance as far as that is possible in the business he's in. Thanks for your reply, Mrs. JG. Oh, I completely agree with you! As he has grown older, Jake has become more private about his off-screen life. I think we can see this in his increasing annoyance with the paps. IMO, Jake would never accept being hounded like Depp or Brangelina. I give him a lot of credit for separating his private life from his professional life. He definitely avoids attention when he's on his own time. He tries to carry on like an ordinary citizen, shopping and eating out and attending games and other interesting events. He can't control being noticed or having his picture taken, but he generally doesn't behave badly about it. He's a genuinely good and decent person who doesn't want to get special treatment and particularly to cause a media frenzy. He knows what's real and valuable and what isn't, as he has said many times. In my earlier comment, I was focusing more on Jake as a professional actor. Jake's a leading man, the actor who gets to play a key character in the story, often the main role. Unlike many actors, he didn't have to start out with smaller parts and work his way up. He has earned nominations and awards for the quality of his work. At this point, he has to maintain his career as well as satisfy himself as an artist. It's a huge challenge. Jake has an agent, a manager, and a team of PR people behind him. They toil continually to arrange TV and other appearances, interviews, magazine covers, and the like for him. Sometimes this is to promote an upcoming film, but at other times it's to keep him in the public eye, including the eye of the people who produce movies. Jake participates in this willingly. In fact, I often marvel at how zealously he throws himself into these publicity campaigns. I think he set some kind of record with the PoP promotion. Like you, I doubt that Jake ever set out to be a "movie star" in the worst sense of that term. In interviews, he has said that the work is what's important, not the size of the film's budget. I'm just happy that he's continuing to find films he really wants to make, and I'm sure he'll have a new project after EOW.

Personally i think that Gyllenhall was more tolerant towards press eye-intended as gossip and paparazzi pics- but due in years all became more and more hard to stand and dealing with, last time he've take a publc position agaist a photoshopped pics, and earlier, not that earlier in time btw, he was pictured by a sick disgusting perv while he've leaking in restroom, so in my pov he have the right to been more angry with paprazzi and protective towards his privacy, and have the right to skip paparazzi, but also all the annoying vapid interviewer, like those that questioned something at events, really a waste of energy try to talk with those journalist, if we can call them journalist.... ;D For Joile and Pitt been in public eye is a way to keep up with their career, and no offence to any of their fans, honestly the latest project of Pitt and Jolie wasen't big movies, just box office. It's still an issue in my pov be a discreet person in Hollywood, is something that i'll never accept, been on cover and paparazzed to have some more chance to acting in different project, i think, maybe in a naive way, that the main thing is having talent, too many times in last years we've seen bad cheap movie, with bad and cheap actors, that cashed a lot, as Gyllenhaal have talent and skills to done better, i hope that he'll going on in choosing interesting movies, not just cheap movie to don't disappoint his fans, that always want to see him in theatre with new movies, no matter which are good or not, and also to please some cunning Hollywood producer. Of course he have a staff of people thet working hard for him, and for his image in public, but to me this shouldn't be the main thing, i serisuoly hope that in future Gyllenhaal could take interesting roles, in good movie, and performing interesting characters without fearing too much about the press and fans. Surely he changed, he growing up, but in my pov in a negative way, Gyllenhaal now is clealry out of tolerance towards all the shites that gossip press said and say about his private life, and towards the intrusive pics of paparazzi. As Gyllenhaal wish to enjoy his life, and his free time, and don't wish to change at all his life style, he became more discreet and less friendly with the press, not a bad thing in the end, I hope also that he start to say no, sometimes, to the interviews, among some very very silly, and to mangazine covers, obviously if he do not feel to want to do.

Unlike many actors, he didn't have to start out with smaller parts and work his way up. Now that I have seen most of his movies it's really fascinating how his carreer has set off like that. Some say it's because his folks knew people, but if Jake hadn't had the talent to follow suit, that wouldn't have done him any good. I totally agree and I don't envy him for that. On the other hand - we all have to do certain thing that are required of us on the job, even if we don't like them. And Jake is professional enough to see that and act/behave accordingly. Me too.

I do not know if he has other projects after End of Watch. I do not know if this is all a consequence of the failure of POP. I have thoughts like this, too, monicabbm. I think the issue isn't a simple one, and there are many factors that enter into it. Jake has worked steadily since he starred in October Sky. He's always the lead, the co-star, or one of the key members of an ensemble cast. People in the business appreciate and respect his talent; I imagine he turns down offers all the time. But he isn't yet (as far as I can judge) a bankable star. He hasn't carried a movie that was a major box-office success, meaning that his name alone won't draw big enough audiences to a film the way, say, Johnny Depp's does, or Angelina Jolie's, or Brad Pitt's. But even big stars have their flops, and nobody's name is a guarantee of anything. In Jake's case, his greatest chance to establish himself as bankable was PoP, and that didn't do it. I think PoP made money, so it wasn't a financial disaster, but it didn't catch fire with audiences, in spite of one of the most intense promotional campaigns I can ever remember. Some of Jake's films haven't done well--Bubble Boy, Rendition, and Brothers, for example--but his work is usually praised (I personally think he was fantastic in Brothers). Jake is slogging away right now: making independent, relatively small-budget movies. I think he is still choosy about his projects, and doesn't work on anything he doesn't like. He's played such a range of characters in the past few years too. That in itself is good thing for an actor, and I am hoping that if he keeps doing that, he will have a real hit and move up to be a bigger star. We Gyllenhaalics will go see him in anything, of course, but he needs to widen his appeal, and he can only do that by continuing to make movies. Evie, I think actors have their ups and downs, of course not all are guaranteed big box office. I do not blame Jake for accepting work in POP. ok, it was a mistake. But It was a big job offer and he had long wanted to do a film like this. He tried with Spider-Man, Batman, Superman. It was not the success that everyone expected, but we can not do anything about it. But the success of Source Code can help. Hoping he find a great script and work with a great director. I like Brad Pitt. I like how he found a balance between blockbuster and small films. He became a great producer too.

I like Brad Pitt. I like how he found a balance between blockbuster and small films. He became a great producer too. monicabbm: I don't blame Jake for PoP either. He has said a number of times that taking a risk is what matters to him, and I would not expect him to call that particular choice a mistake. PoP was an opportunity to play the type of role he'd always dreamed of. He gave it his all, and exhausted himself promoting it. He couldn't have done more, and he couldn't control all the other stuff. While the film didn't deliver Jake as a convincing action hero or attract the hoped-for audiences, PoP actually made a modest amount of money. In Hollywood that counts for a lot. I too am very glad for Source Code. It got enthusiastic reviews, Jake was terrific, and it's an absorbing film. I saw it twice in the theater and will buy the DVD. About two years ago I watched Brad Pitt in a long interview on Charlie Rose (PBS). He was charming and down-to-earth, a sweet, intelligent guy. He's done some good work (my favorites: Thelma and Louise, Fight Club, Ocean's Eleven, Benjamin Button), but he's not the actor Jake is, IMO. Mrs.JG: Again, we see things the same way. Jake has a fantastic work ethic. He throws himself wholeheartedly into the role and whatever the filming involves, and then he gets out there and gives the promotion 110 percent. Who could ask for more? Sure, he was born a Hollywood insider. He has said that, having grown up in the business, he understands how it works. He doesn't fight this; he goes with it. It's true: Being an insider gives you knowledge and connections that outsiders don't enjoy. But you have to deliver the goods when opportunity knocks; if you can't, those connections will not create a career for you. Jake's talent, commitment, and, yes, sexy good looks have combined to make him the star he is. The children of big actors/celebrities mostly don't follow in their parents' footsteps. Those who do, succeed or fail at about the same rate as nonindustry hopefuls.

Personally i don't find any interest in Brad Pitt as actor he never impressed me that much, so i second Evie opinion , and so far he've done mostly just box office movie than others indipendt movies, as producers i can't express an opinion as i'm not too keen with his productions. Sure Gyllenhaal have some benefit to be grown as an insider but sometimes, it's all too much media coverage, and it's quite clear that all this pressure from the press, made him tired on long run. Where he'll starting new projects, I'm sure will going to be interesting thing, but I don't need Gyllenhaal makes three or four films a year. About POP i agree with Monica, surely it was a change that Gyllenhaal couln't miss, so not his fault if the movie wasen't a hit.

They have a similar background and they both know what it means to work out something for yourself. Besides they seem to have a similar sense of humor. As for Brad Pitt: I liked his older stuff (Legends of the Fall, Ocean's Eleven, Seven), I haven't really seen much of his later stuff. What I do admire about him is how wholeheartedly he throws himself into doing charity work. Like in New Orleans. And he (and Angie) don't only give money. They are there knowing that the paps will follow and report and therefor not let the world forget that people are still in need.

What a good, interesting discussion you had here! Monica - - Oh, I am so glad and happy that he made that "mistake". I can't imagine movie world without Prince of Persia. It's such a important movie to me, for many reasons. Monica - - IMO POP had a great director, very good script, very good producer, a lot of money, very talented cast, and many other good things. Why it was not a bigger success, I will never understand that. But I accepted that fact already. And I don't want to start any discussion about that. Brat Pit I like quite a lot as an actor, but in one movie only he awoke those feelings in me, that Jake awakes in his every movie, including POP, or especially POP. It was a Legends of the Fall. That movie really moved me and Brat was absolutely great. He lost in my eyes a lot after leaving Jennifer Aniston for Angelina. But who knows, maybe it was a destiny. I am so happy that Jake makes such a good choice in choosing his movies, cause I like all of them and his characters as well. I don't really care if they were a Box Office success or not. Like Jake said - they make a way to audience hearts, even if it takes longer time sometimes - like Donnie Darko. If Jake would like to focus on making money making movies, he should do kids movies. They bring the most money.

Maybe their moms would. Come to think of it, yeah, may he should do something like that because I have seen "Flynn Ryder" of Disney's Tangled every other day since we got the DVD and I wouldn't mind to have another excuse to stare at Jake for 30 min every day.

Jake says for In Touch that he's sick of girls who are with him only because he's a Hollywood star. '' For me it's important to feel comfortable with the woman with me.I want to see that our relationship gets better and better.''
