[1] Jacob Benjamin"Jake"Gyllenhaal(ˈ/dʒɪlənhɔːl/jil-ən-hawl; born December 19, 1980) is an American actor. The son of director Stephen Gyllenhaal and screenwriter Naomi Foner, Gyllenhaal began acting at age ten. He has appeared in diverse roles since his first lead role in 1999'sOctober Sky, followed by the 2001 indie cult hit Donnie Darko, in which he played a psychologically troubled teen and onscreen brother to his real-life sister, actress Maggie Gyllenhaal. In the 2004 science-fiction filmThe Day After Tomorrowhe 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 inJarhead(2005). The same year, he garnered critical acclaim and an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor as Jack Twist in the filmBrokeback Mountainopposite Heath Ledger. Gyllenhaal has promoted various political and social causes. He has appeared in Rock the Vote advertising, campaigned for the Democratic Party in the 2004 U.S. Presidential election, promoted environmental causes, and campaigned on behalf of the American Civil Liberties Union.

Early life and education Gyllenhaal was born in Los Angeles, the son of film director Stephen Gyllenhaal and film producer and screenwriter [2] Naomi Foner (nae Achs). Maggie Gyllenhaal, his older sister and also an actress, appeared with Jake in the movie Donnie Darko. 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 [3] [4] Gyllenhaal. Jake Gyllenhaal's mother is from a Jewish family from New York City, and Gyllenhaal has said [5] that he considers himself "more Jewish than anything else." On his 13th birthday, Gyllenhaal performed a "barmitzvah-like act, without the typical trappings", volunteering at a homeless shelter, because his parents wanted [6] [7] to instill in him a sense of gratitude for his privileged lifestyle. His parents insisted that he have summer jobs to [8] support himself, and he thus worked as a lifeguard and as a busboy at a restaurant operated by a family friend.

Jake Gyllenhaal

Acting career

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 filmCity Slickers. His parents did not allow him to appear in the 1992 filmThe Mighty Ducksbecause it would have required him leaving home for [2] two months. In subsequent years, his parents allowed him to audition for parts, but regularly forbade him to take [8] them if he were chosen. He was allowed to appear in his father's films several times. Gyllenhaal appeared in the 1993 filmA Dangerous Woman(along with sister Maggie); in "Bop Gun" a 1994 episode ofHomicide: Life on the Street; and in the 1998 comedyHomegrown. 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 the 1993 filmJosh and S.A.M., a [9] little-known children's adventure. Gyllenhaal graduated from the Harvard-Westlake School in Los Angeles in 1998, then attended Columbia University, where his sister was a senior and from which his mother had graduated, to study Eastern religions and philosophy. Gyllenhaal dropped out after two years to concentrate on acting, but has expressed intentions to [2] eventually finish his degree. Gyllenhaal's first lead role was inOctober Sky, Joe Johnston's 1999 adaptation of the Homer Hickam autobiographyRocket 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 [10] [11] Sacramento News and Reviewas Gyllenhaal's "breakout performance."

FromDonnie Darkoto the London stage Donnie Darko, Gyllenhaal's second major film, was not a box office success upon its initial 2001 release, but [12] 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; Gary Mairs of Culture Vulture wrote that "Gyllenhaal manages the difficult trick of seeming both blandly normal and profoundly [13] [14] disturbed, often within the same scene." After the critical success ofDonnie Darko, Gyllenhaal's next role was as Pilot Kelston in 2002'sHighwayalongside [15] Jared Leto. His performance was described by one critic as "silly, cliched and straight to video." Gyllenhaal had more success starring opposite Jennifer Aniston inThe Good Girl, which premiered at the 2002 Sundance Film [16] Festival; he also starred inLovely & AmazingIn both films he plays an unstable characterwith Catherine Keener. who begins a reckless affair with an older woman. Gyllenhaal later described these as "teenager in transition" [17] roles. Gyllenhaal later starred in the Touchstone Pictures romantic comedyBubble 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 [18] before she marries the wrong man. The film was panned by critics, with one calling it an "empty-headed, chaotic, [19] utterly tasteless atrocity". FollowingBubble Boy, Gyllenhaal starred opposite Dustin Hoffman, Susan Sarandon and Ellen Pompeo in Moonlight Mile, as a young man coping with the death of his fiancae and the grief of her parents. The story, which [20] received mixed reviews, is loosely based on writer/director Brad Silberling's personal experiences following the [21] murder of girlfriend Rebecca Schaeffer. Gyllenhaal was almost cast as Spider-Man forSpider-Man 2due to director Sam Raimi's concerns about original [22] Spider-Manstar Tobey Maguire's health. Maguire recovered, however, and the sequel was shot without [23] Gyllenhaal. Instead, Gyllenhaal starred in the blockbusterThe Day After Tomorrowin 2004, co-starring Dennis [2] [24] Quaid as his father.

Jake Gyllenhaal

[25] In his theatrical debut Gyllenhaal starred on the London stage in Kenneth Lonergan's revival ofThis is Our Youth. [26] 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 [27] [28] critical reviews and an Evening Standard Theatre Award in the category "Outstanding Newcomer."

Brokeback Mountainand subsequent roles

2005 was a prolific year for Gyllenhaal, who starred in the critically praised filmsProof,Jarhead, andBrokeback Mountain. InProof, 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. InJarhead, 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. He also auditioned to be Batman for one of the biggest blockbustersBatman [29] [30] Beginsbut Christian Bale wasand came close to getting the role ultimately chosen for it.

[31] InBrokeback Mountain, Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger play young men who meet as sheep herders and embark upon a sexual relationship that begins in the summer of 1963 and lasts for 20 years. The film was often referred to in the media with the shorthand phrase "the gay Gyllenhaal attending the premiere ofProofin [32] cowboy movie," though there was differing opinion on the sexual 2005. orientation of the characters. 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 forSyriana. 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. Also forBrokeback Mountain, he and Ledger won an MTV Movie Award for "Best Kiss" in 2006. Shortly after the 2006 Academy Awards, Gyllenhaal was invited to join [33] the Academy in recognition of his acting career. Gyllenhaal was awarded the 2006 Young Artist Award for [34] 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 inBrokeback 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 [35] [36] sensitive approach to the material. At the Directors Guild of America Awards on January 28, 2006, [37] Gyllenhaal also praised Lee for "his humbleness and his respect for everyone around him." When asked about his kissing scenes with Heath Ledger inBrokeback Mountain, Gyllenhaal said, "As an actor, I [38] think we need to embrace the times we feel most uncomfortable." When asked about the more intimate scenes [31] with Ledger, Gyllenhaal likened them to "doing a sex scene with a woman I'm not particularly attracted to." Following the release ofBrokeback 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 [39] I would be afraid of it if it happened.

Rightly or wrongly, young actors have all the power." In an interview forRendition, he remarked that [60] "it's a sad time when actors are politicians and politicians are actors."
