Jake Gyllenhaal Rocks a Full Beard on 'Details': VIDEO
Jake Gyllenhaal gets a nice puffy piece in next month's Details magazine in which he talks about his forthcoming films End of Watch and An Enemy, which he's shooting in Toronto.
Though Brokeback is a distant memory, Anne Hathaway does offer up a teeny memory of working with him on it:
Gyllenhaal's way of keeping it fresh can befuddle costars on occasion. The far more common result, however, becomes clear in watching his catalog. For over a decade, actors have been doing some of their best work opposite him—Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Aniston, Tobey Maguire, Heath Ledger. "It's no accident. Jake takes it all very seriously but also has a very light touch," explains Anne Hathaway, his costar in Love and Other Drugs and Brokeback Mountain. "On Brokeback, my final scene was on the phone with Heath, who was in Venice for Casanova. Jake offered to read Heath's lines. On the last take, he changed the line, ever so slightly. That kicked off something in me, and lo and behold, that's the take in the film."

Could the guy possibly be any more attractive? I think not.

I'll take Maggie G., my favorite Jewish GF. As to Jake-a-lah, are they making the James Garfield story?

Jake Gyllenhaal? With a beard? Not since Taylor Swift. Buh-dump-dump. And now he has sworn off "regular exercise" according to his US Magazine interview. Maybe he is going all otter boy.

In Towle Road tradition, let's have a healthy dose of straight cock tease, to remind us that were not heterosexual woman. So uplifting.

Why do my comments always appear last. Do they appear at all? I wish trust applied to the Internet.

I see your comment Josh. Also in Towleroad tradition: grumpy, perfectionist queens saying his career is over (LOL), and that's he's too short?! He's 6'0 for cryin out loud. Nobody would think you were dating a dwarf, even if you are 6'6, Sam.

Jake is HOT, but Details sucks! I didn't renew when my subscription ended.

DETAILS loves a good Ryan Seacrest spread. Well probably be seeing Zac Efron and Justin Bieber soon.

Jake I'll be easy on the front end of taking the backend.
