There is nothing like seeing a dirty dirty poster of Jake Gyllenhaal in Prince of Persia: The Sands Of Time. The movie isn’t coming out until 2010 but already we have been writing about it like crazy. I actually like this movie poster…almost as much as that shirtless still they released of him.

Jake is in the movie Brothers that comes out in December and his co-star, Natalie Portman, had something to say about him being on the Sexiest Men Alive list.

“Kids and dogs love him. He loves his mom and sister and girlfriend. He’s perfect. Too bad he’s ugly.”

I don’t think he’s ugly. He should at least be the runner up this year!

Kirsten Dunst looks so cute on the December 2009 cover of Allure magazine.  I thought it was interesting how she talks about Jake Gyllenhaal and how she would like to see him but they aren’t friends anymore. And to be honest I forgot they were even together before. Here are the highlights to the rest of the interview.

Her fame: “My life is totally regular. It’s not like I have a fame that’s a prison.”

Vampires: “I watch ‘True Blood.’ I love vampire stuff — it’s sexy. There’s a danger element, and it’s sensual, what they do. I love the movie ‘Twilight.’ It satisfies the 14-year-old girl in you.”

No guests allowed in her apartment: “My girlfriends will sleep in the bed with me, but no guests. Not long-term, anyway.”

Her role in murder-mystery ‘All Good Things:’ “After this film, I think people will see me in a different light. You can explore stuff inside yourself that you can’t really mess around with in real life, and it is such a release. In ‘All Good Things’ I got to play out things emotionally-I can recognize the behavior that I share with this character, then work things out that I didn’t have a way of expressing.”

Her recent cross-country trip: “After we were done, I was like, ‘Wow, America is so poor.’ You don’t think about it. Just the towns you come across-all that’s there are restaurants and gas stations. There are beautiful stretches of pasture, but for the most part, people live simply. The East and West Coast are so different from the rest of America.”

I am a huge fan of Natalie Portman. There is just something about her that is awesome. She is starring in the new movie with Jake Gyllenhaal and Tobey Maguire called Brothers. I love the trailer for the movie.  She is the cover girl for the Winter 2009/2010 issue of V magazine. Here are the highlights from the interview:

On harsh criticism of her Star Wars work: “My acting was not exactly respected in those films [laughs] but those are the moments when you want to prove yourself again. When people think I suck, it helps.”

On how the internet affects her roles: “[O]nline bulls— interferes with what I want to do artistically. I’m not opposed to sexuality or nudity in a film, but I’m very opposed to pornography sites and you’re pretty much giving them material if you do any of that.”

On striving to be her best: “To be successful, you need the desire to be successful. Ambition can be a dirty word, but it’s pretty much more important than anything.”

Jake Gyllenhaal is one of the funniest guys I have seen in interviews. He honestly sounds like he has fun with it.  If only I could get an interview with him! He was interviewed recently by /Film about his new movie, Prince Of Persia: Sands of Time, and really he swears and jokes around the whole time. There is the part of the interview where he talks about the ostriches on the set. Here is Jake talking about the stunts and the ostriches. It’s priceless…

Well, I worked in L.A. for a few weeks before I left for London. We had a month of rehearsal in London, and I worked in L.A. with just Parkour guys and obviously, David Bell has been on set with us and he’s been working… I haven’t been working directly in terms of technique, but he’s designed a lot of stuff, and surprisingly, a lot of the things they taught me and asked me to do, just start to come easily when you start isometric type of workouts, a lot of hanging and a lot of training your body to move precisely and landing in the right away. A lot is about landing. Anybody can run and jump as far as they can but landing it is the hardest part, which is why you have the four guys outside looking like me. (laughter) I mean, I just learned it. If there’s one thing on this movie I’ve learned so fast is that when someone asks you to do something, you have to try it and see if you can do it, and if you don’t do it the first time, then you have to try again. If you miss it three times then somebody else has to do it, but if you don’t try to do it, then you’ll regret it for the rest of the time, because that’s what these movies afford you, an opportunity to do crazy sh*t that you wouldn’t normally be able to do. (laughs) I remember there’s a whole scene with ostriches in the movie and there are real live ostriches, not CG ostriches. There’s not a CG’ed ostrich in this movie. They’re all real ostriches, highly paid, and we were all briefed on them for weeks before like “They’re these massive destructive creatures that can tear your heart out with their claws.” (laughs) I swear to God I never thought of an ostrich this way! And I was shaking in my boots when they finally brought them out and they’re (does an ostrich impression) and I walked up to it and one of my stuntmen was in the ring with them, and finally, I was like, “When am I going to be in a f*cking cage with ostriches again in my life? I gotta get in here!” So I got in there and they were the sweetest things. I did everything with them, I eventually did that, but every day is like that. You gotta get in there and you gotta do it and that is an experience I’ll never be able to… well, hopefully ostriches will come back again… either in reshoots or hopefully in a second one. That sort of sums up the movie. (laughs)

I would love to see what his ostrich impression would actually look like.

Back in July, I posted the trailer for, Brothers, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Natalie Portman and Tobey Maguire. Now that the movie is hitting theaters on December 4th they released a couple of new stills. This movie looks amazing, especially with the cast that it has. The quick synopsis is that a man (Jake) comforts his sister-in-law (Natalie) and children after her husband (Tobey) goes missing in Afghanistan. I’ve watched the trailer more than a couple of times already.

Finally, we get the first glimpse of the Prince of Persia: Sands Of Time movie trailer. I think that the effects look great and I might actually want to sit through the whole thing…and that is because of the shirtlessness. I think that when they decided to make the movie, having Jake Gyllenhaal be shirtless through the movie makes me able to sit until May 28, 2010 to watch it.

Reese Witherspoon is the cover girl for the November 2009 issue of InStyle magazine. Reese has always been one of my favorite celeb moms. In the interview with the magazine she talks about Jake Gyllenhaal, divorce and  her time off. Here are the highlights.

On spending time with Jake: “Jake is a great cook, he does a lot. We spend the weekends outside of LA, where I have a farmhouse. We have chickens & we grow cucumbers & tomatoes. It reminds me of where I grew up in Tennessee.”

On divorce: “You reconsider certain things, but you just have to keep going, You have to keep it together for your kids and yourself too. I’m trying to learn from the things that have happened in my life, live more in the moment, and have more fun.

On her time off: “I try to exercise every day. I like to run for about an hour, and I’m big into working out with girlfriends.”

Jake can cook? I can only imagine how cool that would be.

I have to include an honorable mention to little Tay Tay:Taylor Lautner, though I will NOT put a picture up here for all you ladies that are old enough to be his mama,to fawn over,(or worse) I will say that when he turns 18 there will be “hallelujah” parties all over the world.

I think two of my favorite actors have to be Jake Gyllenhaal and Natalie Portman. In the September 2009 issue of Interview magazine Jake gets a chance to interview Natalie. I read the interview and it was so adorable and of course I had to share.

GYLLENHAAL: So let’s begin. Mount Rushmore honors four U.S. presidents: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt. If you could add any person to Mount Rushmore, who would it be and why?
PORTMAN: This is an amazing question. Gosh . . . I have to think about that one. [laughs] Let me stew on it for a little while . . . I’m trying to think of someone who has amazing enough features, but it also needs to be the face of a person who is a meaningful human being. Obviously, when you think of Mount Rushmore, you think of Lincoln.
GYLLENHAAL: That’s hard. I don’t know why I started off with that question.
PORTMAN: Do you have an answer to that one?
GYLLENHAAL: No, I don’t. I was just thinking that because you do so much wonderful work in the world, you must have met so many amazing people.

PORTMAN: [laughs] I remember as a kid being really scared of the Smurfs.
GYLLENHAAL: The Smurfs?
PORTMAN: Because that bad guy, Gargamel, was so terrifying. I was scared of a lot of cartoons. I’m kind of wussy like that.
GYLLENHAAL: That’s interesting because you seem so fearless.
PORTMAN: Really?
GYLLENHAAL: Yeah. Looking at all these things that you’ve done and contributed to the world so far, I would have thought that the evil wizard Gargamel would’ve been something you could have very easily stepped over.
PORTMAN: Thank you for saying that, but I’m far from fearless. I’m afraid of everything. But maybe when you’re afraid of everything, it sort of seems like you’re scared of nothing.

GYLLENHAAL: What song best describes your current state?
PORTMAN: My current state . . . I’m trying to think of a song that feels like sleepwalking. [laughs] I don’t know. I’ve mostly been listening to dirty rap lately. That’s sort of my scene.
GYLLENHAAL: Your affection for dirty rap is something that people really don’t know about you, which I think is fascinating. You do incredible things for the world, and then you listen to just completely obscene hip-hop music.
(the rest is too graphic to put on this site but man, I was laughing so hard I was crying!)

I have a couple things to note about this interview: Jake is really awesome and I need him to help me with my next interview, he used to have Garbage Pail Kids cards (I had those too!), he said bada** in the interview, and even though this interview was long it was actually the first one I read all the way through!

Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon were spotted enjoying a lazy Sunday afternoon strolling around Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Venice, California. Shopping was probably on that list since they have shopping bags with them.

I’m just so happy to finally see some new pictures of Jake! It’s been so long!
