Jacob Gyllenhaal

So Jake Gyllenhaal answers questions about what he lives and works for, not for nothing at university he studied with Robert Thurman, father of Uma Thurman and friend of the Dalai Lama.

American actor and heartthrob Jacob Benjamin Gyllenhaal was born on December 19, 1980 in Los Angeles, California. He was lucky with his family, perhaps it was she who predetermined his future biography. Jake's father is a director, his mother is a screenwriter, and his godmother is Jamie Lee Curtis. The room in the house was rented by Steven Soderbergh and Ethan Hawke.

Jake is the second child in the family. Older sister Maggie also later became an actress, married Peter Sarsgaard. Parents tried to raise children strictly, following aristocratic traditions, because the Clan Gyllenhaal is known in secular circles of Sweden: great-great-great-grandfather Nils Gunarson Haal was elevated to the nobility in the 17th century.

Jake first starred in the film when he was 11 years old. The debut was the picture "Urban dudes." Then his father gave him small roles in other projects.

In Jake mixed many nationalities, he from his youth considers himself a Jew. At the age of 13, as it should be Jewish boys, the rite of bar mitzvah took place. Wealthy parents chose for this abode of the homeless, wanted their son to appreciate what he has, respect family values and traditions.

As a child, Jake Gyllenhaal worked part-time to travel the world with his family. He already understood that the money goes to labor, washed dishes in the kitchen of the restaurant, was a guardian of order on the beaches.

After school, the boy enrolled at Columbia University. This university is native to his family, because his mother and sister studied there at the time. But Gyllenhaal Jr. quickly got tired of studying - he graduated from the 1st year and dropped out of university.

Jake decided to immediately fully devote himself to the acting career, and with such relatives to get used to the film industry in Hollywood was much easier.

Gyllenhaal's personal life is an inexhaustible source of hot news. After the premiere of "Brokeback Mountain" the newspapermen started talking about Jake's unconventional orientation: too plausible he played the role. The actor did not deny these rumors and did not hide the joy that his talent was appreciated.

With Heath Ledger, partner on "Brokeback Mountain", Jake had a real friendship: he baptized the daughter of his friend. Friends came closer on the grounds of unsuccessful selection in the musical "Moulin Rouge." Both were cast, and the role eventually went to Ewan McGregor.

Jake Gyllenhaal dated Jenny Lewis in 2001. The following year, his sister introduced him to actress Kirsten Dunst. This novel lasted 2 years. Then followed a series of short-lived affair with partners on the set.

In 2007, the public discussed Jake's relationship with Reese Witherspoon, a colleague on the film Version. The couple denied the rumours, but after Reese's formal divorce from her husband, the actors began to see each other together more often, and interest in their relationship resumed. This time, on the contrary, even after the separation of the press services of both celebrities claimed that they are still dating.

This was followed by an equally discussed affair with Natalie Portman. As in previous and subsequent cases, it is difficult to say whether there was a relationship between the actors, or it is only the invention of the press and the PR move of film companies.

In any case, Jake gave some enthusiastic interviews about Portman, in which he complained about the difficulty of choosing a place to have a joint dinner, as Natalie is a vegetarian. Portman, in turn, spoke warmly of Gyllenhaal.

In 2010, Jake was credited with having an affair with actress Anne Hathaway, with whom he played lovers in love and other drugs, and starred in several collaborative candid scenes.

The artists did not comment on these rumors, but on the wave of popularity of their likely relationship organized a bold photo shoot for the cover of Entertainment Weekly.

In the fall of 2010, journalists have already started talking about Jake's new lover, country music singer Taylor Swift. They met for less than three months: by the New Year Jake Gyllenhaal was free, and the singer dedicated the former guy to the song We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.

Already in 2011 there was a new rumor: the celebrity started a passionate affair with Dakota Johnson. In 2013, the press had a new version of the actor's relationship. According to the paparazzi, Gyllenhaal began dating model Emily Di Donato.

Another partner of the actor - model Alice Miller. Lovers often appeared in public together and lived under the same roof, but soon "between them ran a cat." Rumor has it that Alice did not stand the test of distance when Jake flew to shoot another picture.

Some sources claim that Gyllenhaal escaped because, unlike Miller, he was not ready for a serious relationship.

In mid-2015, the press started talking about Jake's new romance, this time with Rachel McAdams. The reason for the rumors was that the actors continued to be seen often together, although the joint shooting in the film "Lefty" ended six months before.

Journalists got a lot of pictures of the couple in restaurants and on a walk. But Jake himself denied all rumors, telling the program Ellen DeGeneres that he is not dating anyone.

It was said that he does not get married, because the first thing meets the girl with his mother. And Naomi Foner seems to believe in marriage by arrangement and, being a second education psychologist, carefully checks the potential daughter-in-law. She has never approved the choice of her son.

In the winter of 2016, Jake was seen in the company of Margot Robbie, an Australian actress who later gained insane popularity thanks to the blockbuster "Suicide Squad". Journalists noticed not only the tender embrace of Jake and Margot, but also an expensive ring on the ring finger of the girl.

The press immediately filled with speculation about the engagement and began to read Margot in his wife Jake. At the same time, the man denied the relationship, and Robbie openly told reporters that in principle she does not intend to look for her husband in the acting environment.

In meetings with the daughter of the producer Greta Caruso there was no hint of a romantic relationship. Jake and Greta have known each other for more than 10 years, and Gyllenhaal has repeatedly stressed that they have only friendships. In an interview, the Hollywood actor admitted that he considers the main task in life to find the "right woman."

The man's unconventional sense of humour shocked fans when he announced he was going to start a family with Tom Holland. Fortunately, that post on social media turned out to be a joke, not a camping out.

The enviable fiance of Hollywood Jake remained short-lived. In 2018, the news leaked to the media - almost two weeks after meeting Gyllenhaal moved in with model Jeanne Kadier. For the first time officially the couple of lovers appeared at the premiere of the Broadway musical Sea Wall / A Life, in which the actor played the main role.

The Frenchwoman is 16 years younger than Jake, collaborates with One Management, represents the Chanel and Chloe brands. Friends of lovers hope that the actor will still implement the words that "nothing is more important and responsible than the role of husband and father."

Gyllenhaal is friendly with Bryce Dallas Howard, Peter Sarsgaard and Matthew McConaughey. He likes to cook, enjoys shopping and shopping. Supports Edible Schoolyard, an organization that promotes healthy eating in schools, sends a batch of trees to Mozambique every year to restore forests. The actor doesn't shy away from social media, chatting with fans on Facebook, photos and videos of which are duplicated on Instagram.

Fascinated in his youth Buddhism, Jake and now guided this philosophy in life, believes in the energy connection between people, tries to analyze emotions, own and others.

After the first year of the university Jake was invited to the lead role in "October Sky." He managed to accurately convey the character of a young Boy, Who dreamed of building rockets. Despite his age, Gyllenhaal looked worthy against Laura Dern and Chris Cooper.

However, it is said that the first sprouts of popularity confused the young man and he decided to return to school. Alas, Jake left the university just because he was not taught acting.

This fact was later affected when Gyllenhaal failed to audition for the role of Frodo in The Lord of the Rings. The young man was not told that the character needed a British accent.

However, the last drops of regret about the lack of higher education in the actor erased the next project. In the fantasy film "Donnie Darko" he proved to be brilliant. Jake and Maggie Gyllenhaal played as a couple. The film did not have much success at the box office, but after the release of the film on DVD began a rapid growth in popularity of the artist.

Then Jake Gyllenhaal's streak ended: the pictures in which he starred did not find a positive response from the audience. Luck and success came to him after the role in the film "After Tomorrow." The film grossed $500 million at the box office.

A year later, The whole of Hollywood was talking about Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger. The young man said he had taken director Ang Lee out of his life, literally gnawing at the role. The drama "Brokeback Mountain", which narrates the same-sex love of two cowboys, touched on a forbidden, but such an attractive topic for the audience. Jake with all the depth of his acting talent showed the weaknesses and sacrifice of the hero, curbing his passions and the idea that love has no gender.

The fame of the artist was strengthened by a war drama about the war in Kuwait "Marines", detective "zodiac" about a serial killer of the 70s. Jake won the Hollywood Film Festival prize and was nominated for Sputnik for his role as a police officer who revealed the kidnapping of children in "The Captives", and the film was included in the top ten in 2013. This thriller is also perhaps the only chance to see a movie star without a beard.

In addition, in "Prisoners" the man for the first time demonstrated a tattoo in the form of a star. Over time, the drawings adorned his chest, arms and back. However, the actor claimed that all the ones are temporary, applied only to convey the brutality of the image.

Another result of Gyllenhaal's collaboration with director and Oscar nominee Denis Villeneuve is the psychological detective "Enemy". Jake played two roles at once - a high school teacher and a strikingly similar actor.

The political thriller "Version", in which Gyllenhaal starred with Reese Witherspoon and Meryl Streep, is based on real events - the mistaken abduction and torture of the CIA of a German citizen of Lebanese origin.

In 2006, Jake Gyllenhaal was nominated for an Oscar, but did not receive the coveted statuette. But he was awarded the BAFTA Award and other prestigious awards.

In 2009, the actor appeared in the film adaptation of the computer game "Prince of Persia. Sands of time." Here the attention of the audience attracted not only the acting and oriental color, but also the long hair and the naked torso of the "prince". After this film Jake began to appear more and more in amateur Internet ratings of the best torso in cinema.

Presenting the painting in Russia, Gyllenhaal told how he suffered with an unusual hairstyle, how he mastered parkour and learned to jump from the window on the back of the horse, although the main tricks were performed by Daniel Craig's understudy. He remembered that on his mother's side he had Russian ancestors. Ben Kingsley and Alfred Molina caused a special delight in the actor. Jake was impressed by the humor with which elderly colleagues perceived the difficulties of filming, enjoyed every moment.

Gyllenhaal's appearance, which he achieved by the beginning of filming in the sports drama "Lefty", became the envy of men and at times increased the female audience. Jake, who was 183cm tall, grew his muscle mass by 13kg to his 77. But not long before this film for the role of paparazzi in the film "Stringer" actor lost 12 kg.

The performer of the main role of the professional boxer said that he spent 5 months in the ring, giving training for 6 hours a day. During this time he has mastered boxing skills both for the body and for the mind.

In 2015, Jake Gyllenhaal starred in the drama Destruction. He got the main role and embodied on the screen a subtle psychological image of a man who feels nothing after the sudden death of his wife, but writes lengthy autobiographical complaints in the service company and feels an irresistible desire to destroy his apartment and life.

On the set of the disaster film "Everest" the hero of the actor died of hypothermia. Gyllenhaal lay in the snow in a 30-degree frost, covered in ice, and almost went deaf. But stuntmen and visual effects creators received nominations for "Saturn" and Screen Actors Guild Award.

In 2016, Jake again starred in the main narrative and in a parallel plot - in Tom Ford's drama "Under the Cover of the Night", which critics called an aesthetic thriller. Gyllenhaal replaced George Clooney, his filming partner was Amy Adams. The jury of the Venice Film Festival, Sputnik, Critics' Choice Movie Awards and Golden Globes noted the film's script, directorial work, performers of key and secondary roles.

In 2017, three films with the participation of Gyllenhaal were released, which critics read the status of blockbusters. The sci-fi thriller "Live," starring Ryan Reynolds and Rebecca Ferguson, stars Ryan Reynolds and Rebecca Ferguson, about a Martian living creature that infiltrated the International Space Station.

Another fantastic film in the actor's filmography is the South Korean "Okcha" about a genetically modified monster, selected to participate in the Cannes Film Festival. After appearing at the Gyllenhaal Film Forum in company with colleague Lily Collins, the media immediately created a new romantic couple.

In the same year, Gyllenhaal won the Hollywood Film Awards and, in 2018, a Sputnik nomination for his portrayal of the Victim of the Boston Marathon bombing in the biographical drama "Stronger." The film about courage and fortitude, which did not beat the financial costs of shooting, received rave reviews from critics and recognition of the audience.

The family drama "Wild Life" is the directorial debut of actor Paul Dano, with whom Jake worked in the films "Okcha" and "The Captives". In the film adaptation of the novel of the same name by Richard Ford Gyllenhaal and Carey Mulligan played a married couple experiencing a disorder. The story in the film is on behalf of his son. The role was played by rising Australian star Ed Oxenbould.

In 2018, director Jacques Odier, who has already received the Palme d'Or at Cannes, presented on the Cote d'Azur comedy western "The Sisters Brothers" with the participation of Jake Gyllenhaal, Rutger Hauer and Joaquin Phoenix. The film tells the story of two assassins who wanted to get rich and change the bloody occupation, and in the course of the story turns from a traditional western into a psychological drama.

The actor is able to be reincarnated in any character, funny or heroic, intellectual and able only to wave his fists. Jake admits that he is quite lazy, and immediately says that in the first place he explores his character from the mental side. The star, whose name does not go off the pages of the press, believes that the less they know about him, the more interesting it is to look at it on the screen and the more whole it is. This unity of opposites attracts directors and fans to Gyllenhaal.

In 2019, the film based on the comic book "Marvel" "Spider-Man: Away from Home" with Tom Holland in the title role took place. Jake is reincarnated as a supervillain Mysterio.

In the future, there was a conflict between Sony and Disney - the companies did not come to an agreement on the money issue. It was reported that Disney demanded 50% of the revenue from future spider-man projects, although initially it was only content to participate in the merce.

"Away From Home" is the most successful project in the studio's history with revenues of more than $1.1 billion. It is clear that the previous conditions have become unprofitable for Marvel. Following the departure of the main producer, Sony Pictures said it would continue to develop Spider-Man without Marvel Studios.
