Gyllenhaal's love for Hathaway E! Online Interview
Gyllenhaal's love for Hathaway E! Online Interview
"Speaking On Air with Ryan Seacrest Jake says: ‘Let’s just say that there’s a lot of intercourse in this movie.
‘It’s a tough job getting naked with Anne Hathaway.’
Gyllenhaal added: ‘It’s not awkward, it’s our job.
‘That’s the tough life of being an actor in the movie business nowadays, it’s exhausting.’
As for the 28 year old actress, she can not believe that so many people are making such a big deal over the sex scenes she and Jake share.
“I saw the film the other night, and we’d been talking to journalists for a couple weeks at that point, and when I saw it, I’m like, ‘Why is everyone going on about this?’ It’s really such a small part of the film,” she explained. “It’s almost like the media is conditioned to think of this as being a very big deal. I don’t think it’s a big deal, so I didn’t anticipate anyone else doing so.” Source: www.chattershmatter.com

Anne Hathaway at SNL
"After her hilarious stint last weekend hosting Saturday Night Live, we can't begrudge Anne Hathaway anything, even, say, Lois Lane.
That's right, she who will probably be nominated this year for Love and Other Drugs is listed as a contender for the part (as she was for the new Alien and Batman movies), but Aussie site What's Playing has dropped multiple bombshells on The Man of Steel, or as they call it in the article, Superman: The Man of Steel. The slightly redundant new moniker is listed along with a possible plot description, which reads as follows:
"In the Christopher Nolan produced reboot, Kent's a young journalist, traveling for the globe, who would rather solve problems and help people without resorting to using his special powers. When he is compelled to use his secret powers to intervene in a crisis in West Africa, Clark returns to Smallville to learn more about his origins and the hero he was born to be." Source: www.ugo.com

Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal on Today show on November 18, 2010, New York
"[She's] annoying", Gyllenhaal joked about having to sit side-by-side for interviews all day. Then, turning serious, he added, "She's so dope at press. Can we talk about this for a second? She's got a rare talent at 'pressing' it."
"How dare you set me up at the beginning of an interview like that?" Hathaway interjected in mock protest. "How dare you!"
"Your mind is going to be blown by this chick," Gyllenhaal continued.
"Wait, he's about to say the smartest thing you've ever heard!" Hathaway countered.
"No, just wait, she's going to say something amazing and you're going to be moved, you're going to cry," Gyllenhaal enthused. "There's going to be something you've never felt before."
"No, Jake's great. Jake's awesome," Hathaway said as Gyllenhaal echoed the warm fuzzy sentiments.
"She's so talented. She's at the top of her game. Everything about her is so special," he said.
"It's so nice to know that someone really has your back," she said.
"She's so beautiful right now," he said, which got Hathaway's attention.
"Oh, thank you," she said, turning to her co-star. "I think you're just really handsome!"
"Her body is gorgeous in the film," Gyllenhaal continued.
"Well, that's too far," Hathaway said. Source: www.mtv.com
Jake Gyllenhaal: "I've been doing this for 15 years now, Anne Hathaway is badass"
Jake Gyllenhaal and director Edward Zwick shooting a scene from "Love and other drugs" (2010)
-Love & Other Drugs is almost like two movies in one - a very distinct dichotomy between the silly and the serious. Do you agree?
-Jake Gyllenhaal: I think filmmakers in particular feel like they have to carve some perfect sculpture with their movie and everything has to stay within one tone - as if life is like one tone all the time. People have to classify a movie, like, "It's a drama, it's a comedy, it's a romantic comedy." The truth is (I'll speak for myself here), the day is filled with a million emotions probably very similar to the things that happen in this movie. You believe Oliver Platt [who plays my boss] when he's funny and you're moved by him, too. The nature of the actors in this movie, you know, we all love to walk that line. I think that's really where great movies exist.
-So what kind of movie is Love & Other Drugs?
-We don't like to call this film a romantic comedy, we're calling it an emotional comedy, which I think is more appropriate. You have to be invested. How many bullshit love stories are there out there? There are real stakes in this one. In order for the humor to land, in order for people to care about the love story, the stakes have to be raised. I think people are tired of romantic comedies. Because we love the genre, we wanted to give it more respect than people have in the last little while.
-You play Jamie Randall, who sells Viagra for Pfizer. Could you buy into the mythology of being the typical pharmaceutical sales rep?
-I definitely could buy into that. Part of my job is a little bit of that. I've gotta be a salesman. There's a nature to the act -- there's a real performance -- and there's a real performance to sales, so I think as an actor, it's natural. I think the only other role I could play really well would be a politician (laughs); there's an element of sales to that, too. What I loved about [playing Jamie] is I don't think this guy knows what's at stake. I don't think he knows what he's selling completely. I think that's part of the pharmaceutical world. I would say about half the people I talked to [while doing research for the character] were aware of the effect of what they were doing. It isn't just about driving sales, it's about people's health, too. What I love about Jamie is his sense of performance, and I don't mean performance in the Viagra sense (laughs). A real sense of being able to walk into a room and have so much confidence that people would trust whatever he said. That was really wonderful to play, because I haven't played anything like that before.
-What was it like working with Anne Hathaway again? You two did Brokeback Mountain together, too.
-I don't mean to sound like an old veteran because I'm without a doubt not one. But I've been doing this for 15 years now. Working with Anne, we did Brokeback and we did this -- it was magical. I hate to sound like an actor when I say that, but Ed and Anne and I had an incredible experience on this movie. In an odd way, it's the first movie I've made where I'm desperate for an audience to see it, because all we did was think about how much we care about our audience and how much we respect them. But I also know what an experience it was for me as an actor and I don't really mind what they think, which is a first for me. And I feel totally comfortable with Anne. She's ballsy, she's just a ballsy actor. For a woman her age to be that way with the scrutiny that she's under as an actress, is badass. You don't find that. She's pretty amazing.
-Anne portrays Maggie, a young woman with early onset Parksinson's disease. There's one sex scene in the film in particular where Anne's hand is trembling... That seemed to have "Oscar" written all over it.
-I don't know about that, but I don't think Anne or Ed or I can make a movie without going there. Anne met all these people with Parkinson's, and there was no shot in the movie that we could even get near what that's like [to have Parkinson's]. But Ed can kind of push that emotional thing sometimes. It's definitely an emotional moment.Do you wanna give any other shoutouts to the cast?
-Josh Gad [who plays Jamie's brother] is the engine in this film. Josh Gad will be and is becoming a force to be reckoned with. He brought all the humor and energy to the movie, and was a huge influence on me, and an inspiration in terms of comedy. He's a great actor. Working with Oliver Platt and Hank Azaria, they're comedic geniuses but also really great actors.
