August 4, 2008: " No Wedding for Reese and Jake" Rumor has it that lovebirds Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are planning a winter wedding. However, a rep for Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal is saying that that the couple is not engaged. The reps say, “They are not engaged, getting married or any of the reports.” They also called the reports “lies.” The Daily Mail claimed Jake and Reese planned to marry around Christmas-time this year. Witherspoon, 32 and Gyllenhaal, 27, began quietly dating in 2007. They recently were seen together in Paris with Witherspoon’s kids. *** June 26, 2008: "Jake Gyllenhaal Moves in With Reese Witherspoon" Us Weekly reports in its latest issue that Gyllenhaal has quietly moved into Witherspoon’s $5 million L.A. home and is already part of her fiercely guarded family. The actor, 27, is even helping to raise her two kids – Ava, 8, and Deacon, 4 – from her former marriage to Ryan Phillippe. “Marriage is definitely what they are working toward,” a source close to the actress, 32, tells Us of the couple who’ve been together for a year. “They literally don’t want to spend any time away from each other,” a Witherspoon pal adds. *** June 4, 2008: "Jake Gyllenhaal Tops Hot 100 Gay Icons List" Jake Gyllenhaal has topped a poll of the Hot 100 gay icons. Jake Gyllenhaal - who famously starred in a homosexual love scene with Heath Ledger in 'Brokeback Mountain' - came first in the survey of 100,000 people on gay website AfterElton.com, for the second consecutive year. The website said: "What accounts for Jake's ongoing appeal to gay men? His doe-eyed, boy next door looks certainly don't hurt, but we suspect what really makes gay men go for him is that he doesn't have an issue going for us. "Jake has done as much as any actor to show straight guys there isn't a good reason to be afraid of gay guys or gay roles." Meanwhile, on AfterEllen.com - the lesbian counterpart to AfterElton.com - '30 Rock' comedienne Tina Fey came top of the Hot 100 gay women list. Tina beat US talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, her girlfriend Portia de Rossi and 'Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines' star Kristanna Loken to first place. *** April 27, 2008: " Jake's Producer Pal: Jake "Really Loves" Reese!" Just how serious is Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon’s relationship? “I just think he loves her,” Gyllenhaal’s producer pal Ryan Kavanaugh said at the 23rd Annual “Salute to Youth” dinner in Los Angeles on Thursday. Kavanaugh produced the actor’s upcoming film, Brothers, which he calls a “passion project.” “[Jake] has obviously had his fair share of dating,” Kavanaugh says of Gyllenhaal’s romantic life. “I think eventually you come to a place where you know what you want and seeing what we saw on the set, he was certainly completely devoted to her and really loves her.” *** Actor Jake Gyllenhaal picture(s)/pic(s), wallpaper and photo gallery. Birth Name: Jacob Benjamin Gyllenhaal. Born: December 19, 1980, Los Angeles, California, USA. Other names: Jacob Gyllenhaal / Jake Gyllenhall. Height: 6' (1.83 m). Jake Gyllenhaal biography (bio): Jacob Benjamin Gyllenhaal is an Academy Award-nominated American actor. The son of director Stephen Gyllenhaal and screenwriter Naomi Foner, Gyllenhaal began acting at 11 years old. He has appeared in diverse roles since his first lead role in 1999's October Sky, followed by the 2001 cult hit Donnie Darko, in which he played a psychologically troubled teen and onscreen brother to his real-life sister, actor Maggie Gyllenhaal. In the 2004 blockbuster The Day After Tomorrow he portrayed a student caught in a cataclysmic global cooling event, alongside Dennis Quaid as his father. He then played against type as a frustrated Marine in Jarhead (2005). The same year, he won critical acclaim, portraying a role that entered popular shorthand as a "gay cowboy", in the controversial but highly lauded film Brokeback Mountain. Gyllenhaal has taken an activist role in supporting various political and social causes. He appeared in Rock the Vote advertising, campaigned for the Democratic Party in the 2004 election, and promoted environmental causes and the American Civil Liberties Union. Early life and education: Gyllenhaal was born in Los Angeles, California to film director Stephen Gyllenhaal and film producer and screenwriter Naomi Foner. Gyllenhaal's father was raised in the Swedenborgian religion and is a descendant of the Swedish noble Gyllenhaal family. His last native Swedish ancestor was his great-great-grandfather, Anders Leonard Gyllenhaal. Gyllenhaal's mother is from a New York City Jewish-American family. She is the ex-wife of Eric Foner, a history professor at Columbia University. Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jake's sister, is also an actor, and played his sister in the movie Donnie Darko. Gyllenhaal's Bar Mitzvah celebration took place at a homeless shelter because his parents wanted to instill in him a sense of gratitude for his privileged lifestyle. While Gyllenhaal once said he considered himself "more Jewish than anything else," he celebrated Jewish and Christian holidays growing up. Gyllenhaal's parents insisted that he have summer jobs to support himself. He worked as a lifeguard, and as a busboy at a restaurant operated by a family friend. Early career: During childhood, Gyllenhaal had regular exposure to filmmaking due to his family's deep ties to the industry. As an 11-year-old he made his acting debut as Billy Crystal's son in the 1991 comedy film City Slickers. His parents did not allow him to appear in the 1992 film The Mighty Ducks because it would have required him leaving home for two months. In subsequent years, his parents allowed him to audition for parts, but regularly forbade him to take them if he were chosen. He was allowed to appear in his father's films several times. Gyllenhaal appeared in the 1993 film A Dangerous Woman (along with sister Maggie), in a 1994 episode of Homicide: Life on the Street, and in the 1998 comedy Homegrown. Along with their mother, Jake and Maggie appeared in two episodes of Molto Mario, an Italian cooking show on the Food Network. Prior to his senior year in high school, the only other film not directed by his father in which Gyllenhaal was allowed to perform was Josh and S.A.M., a little-known children's adventure. Gyllenhaal graduated from the Harvard-Westlake School in Los Angeles in 1998, then attended Columbia University, where his sister and mother also attended, to study Eastern religions and philosophy. Gyllenhaal dropped out after two years to concentrate on acting, but has expressed intentions to eventually finish his degree. Gyllenhaal's first lead role was in October Sky, Joe Johnston's 1999 adaptation of the Homer Hickam autobiography Rocket Boys, in which he portrayed a young man from West Virginia striving to win a science scholarship to avoid becoming a coal miner. The film earned $32 million and was described in the Sacramento News and Review as Gyllenhaal's "breakout performance." Critical success: Donnie Darko, Gyllenhaal's second major film, was not a box office success upon its initial 2001 release, but eventually became a cult favorite. The film, directed by Richard Kelly, is set in 1988 and stars Gyllenhaal as a troubled teenager who, after narrowly escaping death, experiences visions of a 6 foot (1.8 m) tall rabbit named Frank who tells him that the world is coming to an end. Gyllenhaal's performance was well-received by critics; Dan Kois of Salon.com claimed that "Gyllenhaal manages the difficult trick of seeming both blandly normal and profoundly disturbed, often within the same scene."

After the critical success of Donnie Darko, Gyllenhaal's next role was as the lead character in 2002's Highway, a film ignored by audiences and critics alike. His performance was described by one critic as "silly, cliched and straight to video." Gyllenhaal had more success starring opposite Jennifer Aniston in The Good Girl, which premiered at the 2002 Sundance Film Festival; he also starred in Lovely & Amazing with Catherine Keener. In both films he plays an unstable character who begins a reckless affair with an older woman. Gyllenhaal later described these as "teenager in transition" roles. Gyllenhaal later starred in the Touchstone Pictures romantic comedy Bubble Boy, which was loosely based on the story of David Vetter. The film portrays the title character's adventures as he pursues the love of his life before she marries the wrong man. The film was panned by critics, with one calling it an "empty-headed, chaotic, utterly tasteless atrocity". Following Bubble Boy, Gyllenhaal starred opposite Dustin Hoffman and Susan Sarandon in Moonlight Mile, as a young man coping with the death of his fiancée and the grief of her parents. The story, which received mixed reviews, is loosely based on writer/director Brad Silberling's personal experiences following the murder of girlfriend Rebecca Schaeffer. Gyllenhaal was almost cast as Spider-Man for Spider-Man 2 due to director Sam Raimi's concerns that Tobey Maguire, who had a back injury, risked paralysis from the stuntwork the movie required. Maguire recovered, however, and the sequel was shot without Gyllenhaal. (The TV series Entourage satirized this incident by Warner Bros. signing Gyllenhaal to play Aquaman in a sequel after the actor who played him in the original film was fired.) Instead, Gyllenhaal starred in the blockbuster The Day After Tomorrow in 2004, co-starring Dennis Quaid as his father. In his theatrical debut Gyllenhaal starred on the London stage in Kenneth Lonergan's revival of This is Our Youth. Gyllenhaal said, "Every actor I look up to has done theatre work, so I knew I had to give it a try." The play, which had been a critical sensation on Broadway, ran for eight weeks in London's West End. Gyllenhaal received favorable critical reviews and an Evening Standard Theatre Award in the category "Outstanding Newcomer." Brokeback Mountain and after: 2005 was a prolific year for Gyllenhaal, who starred in the critically praised films Proof, Jarhead, and Brokeback Mountain. In Proof, featuring Gwyneth Paltrow and Anthony Hopkins, Gyllenhaal played a graduate student in mathematics who tries to convince Paltrow's character to publish a revolutionary proof to a problem puzzling the mathematicians' community. In Jarhead, Gyllenhaal played against his usual "sensitive yet disturbed" type by displaying an aggressive masculinity as a violent U.S. Marine during the first Gulf War. Public reaction to this film was muted due to Gyllenhaal's simultaneous appearance in Brokeback Mountain. In Brokeback Mountain, Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger play two sheep herders who, after overcoming initial reluctance, have a homosexual relationship during the 1960s and 1970s. The film was often referred to in the media with the shorthand phrase "the gay cowboy movie." The film won the Golden Lion prize at the Venice Film Festival. The film went on to win four Golden Globe Awards, four British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Awards, and three Academy Awards. Gyllenhaal was nominated for an Academy Award in the category of Best Supporting Actor for his performance, but lost to George Clooney for Syriana. Gyllenhaal also won the Best Supporting Actor BAFTA for the same role and received a Best Supporting Actor nomination and Best Film Ensemble nomination from the Screen Actors Guild. The actor won an MTV Movie Award for "Best Kiss" in 2005 for his movie "Brokeback Moutain" Shortly after the 2006 Academy Awards, Gyllenhaal was invited to join the Academy in recognition of his acting career. Most recently, Gyllenhaal was awarded the 2006 Young Artist Award for Artistic Excellence by The Americans for the Arts National Arts Awards for his role. Gyllenhaal expressed mixed feelings about the experience of being directed by Ang Lee in Brokeback Mountain, but generally had more praise than criticism for Lee's directing style. While complaining of the way Lee tended to disconnect with his actors once filming began, Gyllenhaal praised his encouraging direction of the actors and sensitive approach to the material. At the Directors Guild of America Awards on January 28, 2006, Gyllenhaal also praised Lee for "his humbleness and his respect for everyone around him." When asked about his kissing scenes with Heath Ledger in Brokeback Mountain, Gyllenhaal said, "As an actor, I think we need to embrace the times we feel most uncomfortable." When asked about the more intimate scenes with Ledger, Gyllenhaal likened them to "doing a sex scene with a woman I'm not particularly attracted to." Following the release of Brokeback Mountain, rumors circulated regarding the actor's sexual orientation. When asked about such gossip during an interview, Gyllenhaal said: " You know it's flattering when there's a rumor that says I'm bisexual. It means I can play more kinds of roles. I'm open to whatever people want to call me. I've never really been attracted to men sexually, but I don't think I would be afraid of it if it happened. " In 2005, Gyllenhaal also narrated the short animated film The Man Who Walked Between the Towers, based on Mordicai Gerstein's book of the same name about Philippe Petit's famous stunt. Gyllenhaal starred in 2007's Zodiac, directed by David Fincher and based on a true story. He played Robert Graysmith, a San Francisco Chronicle cartoonist and author of two books about the Zodiac serial killer. Gyllenhaal stars opposite Meryl Streep, Alan Arkin, and Reese Witherspoon in the October 2007 release Rendition, a thriller concerning the controversial U.S. policy of extraordinary rendition and directed by Gavin Hood. On Saturday, January 13, 2007, Gyllenhaal hosted Saturday Night Live with musical guests The Shins. During his opening monologue, he put on a sparkly evening dress and sang "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going", from the musical Dreamgirls, with Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph and Kristen Wiig as back-up singers. Gyllenhaal dedicated the song to his "unique fan base... the fans of Brokeback." Internationally viewed as a sex symbol, Gyllenhaal was named one of People magazine's "50 Most Beautiful People" in 2006. He was also listed in People's "Hottest Bachelors of 2006." In response to mainstream press lists like these, thousands of gay and bisexual men were polled for the 2007 "AfterElton.com Hot 100 List." Gyllenhaal was ranked at #1. Personal life: Family: Gyllenhaal's sister Maggie is engaged to actor Peter Sarsgaard, Gyllenhaal's co-star in Jarhead. Gyllenhaal's niece, Ramona Sarsgaard, was born on October 3, 2006. In December, 2006, they escaped a fire that destroyed Manka's, a famed lodge and restaurant in Inverness, California, at which they were vacationing. Jamie Lee Curtis is Gyllenhaal's godmother, and he has repeatedly referred to his godfathers being a gay couple. Gyllenhaal himself is the godfather of Matilda Rose Ledger (born October 28, 2005), the daughter of actors Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams, both of whom co-starred with him in Brokeback Mountain. His uncle, Anders Gyllenhaal, is the executive editor of The Miami Herald. Relationships: Gyllenhaal dated Rilo Kiley singer Jenny Lewis in 2001, and later actress Kirsten Dunst. The couple met through Gyllenhaal's sister Maggie, Dunst's Mona Lisa Smile co-star, and began dating in September 2002. They were reported to have officially broken up in July 2004, but the relationship continued off and on until December 2005. With Dunst, Gyllenhaal shared a German Shepherd named Atticus which they rescued from a Los Angeles dog shelter. Gyllenhaal also owns a Puggle named Boo Radley. Both dogs are named after characters from the Harper Lee novel To Kill a Mockingbird, one of Gyllenhaal's favorite novels. In November 2006, photographs of Gyllenhaal talking and laughing with co-star Reese Witherspoon on the set on their film Rendition sparked rumours that the pair were dating. A flurry of sightings followed in winter and spring 2007, though paparazzi failed to capture a photograph of the elusive stars together. The discreetness of their relationship led to reports in June 2007 that Witherspoon and Gyllenhaal had broken up. However, on July 31, 2007, paparazzi photographs of Witherspoon and Gyllenhaal laughing in Witherspoon's car as they drove around Los Angeles finally seemed to confirm that the actors are indeed a couple. Politics and other interests: Gyllenhaal is politically active. He shot a commercial for Rock the Vote, and along with his sister Maggie Gyllenhaal, visited the University of Southern California to encourage students to vote during the 2004 U.S. Election. He also campaigned for Democratic Presidential candidate John Kerry. He has said, however, that "it frustrates me when actors talk politics; I'm political and I make choices in my movies that I think are political. I try and say things with what I do. Rightly or wrongly, young actors have all the power." Raised in a family concerned with social issues, Gyllenhaal has campaigned on behalf of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), an organization which his entire family strongly supports. Environmentally conscious, he recycles regularly, and said in an interview that he spends $400 a year to have trees planted in a Mozambique forest, partly to promote the Future Forests program. After filming The Day After Tomorrow, he flew to the Arctic to promote awareness of climate change. In his spare time, Gyllenhaal enjoys woodworking and cooking. He has said, "I am not a card-carrying Buddhist, but I do try to practice mindfulness" and it is his goal to meditate every day.
