Jake Gyllenhaal Likes To Work With Ostriches

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.

Ed Westwick and Leighton Meester were seen on the set of Gossip Girl today, they were shooting a scene where they were visiting a homeless shelter. It seems like Chuck has become a lot more compassionate this season since he’s been with Blair. I guess they bring out the best in each other. MAJOR SPOILER!! When they are at the homeless shelter Chuck sees someone from his past. I know who it is…so do you have any guesses? I didn’t post the picture on purpose because I didn’t want to give it away.

Blake Lively took a break on the set of her movie, The Town, in Boston yesterday. The caption on the picture said that she was showing off her characters lack of fashion sense. But I’m not so sure. I think she doesn’t look too bad.

I wonder if Blake gets her lines mixed up between Serena and this character. It might be hard to jump from one to another.

I am a bit late posting these pictures of Chace Crawford the other day on the Gossip Girl set. I know there are some people that would love to see them. Me included. I can’t wait to see Chace in Footloose. Because thinking about him dancing is killing me. And I know his acting will be amazing.

Chace Crawford was seen wearing a suit on the set of Gossip Girl in the Lower East Side in New York City.  That makes me miss NYC so bad. For some reason I need to go there. And with Chace in this suit we can all picture what he might look like if we were to marry him. Ladies?

What are you thinking of the season of Gossip Girl so far?
