Boston Bound Brothers


It looks like Boston might be the location for Jake's new movie The Brothers. Shooting would begin in November. Sadly Jake will miss the Sox post season,unless he feels the need to come up early to soak up the local culture. But he may still be here for one of Boston's newer traditions. I'm talking about the Santa in Speedos Run in December. We know he runs, he's got the hat, from past interviews we know he has been dared to wear the speedo. Now to do that with a hundred or so guys down the streets of the Back Bay of Boston in December?

Boston has great restaurants, great music, and great hotels. Will we see him in the North End for great Italian? Probably. In Cambridge, soaking up the academic vibe, and visiting Natalie's old haunts? Maybe.

My money is on Jake front and center at the Celtics/Lakers game, November 23rd. Thanksgiving on the Vineyard and Celtics/Lakers the next day, it could be a great weekend in New England to share.


Thanks to Pure for the early morning Boston heads up.

Cool news about Boston filming! I am sure that works for you, Special. ;) Btw, the movie is called "Brothers" not "The Brotherhood". :). Just hope the Mischa rumors are not true.

The Santa Speedo mention reminded me of the song "Guido in a Speedo," which is now stuck in my head!

Thanks for the catch TBS. There was a series for Showtime filmed up in Rhode Island based on Boston's Bulger Brother called The Brotherhood. I need more coffee.

I just changed it.

Thanks again

Now if Texan comes to visit, this will get interesting. What happens whens the doppleganger shows up in Tom's (Brady) town. I am sure he would turn more than a few heads here.

Well, if we hear about any Jake/Tom Brady sightings this time around we'll know better than to take it at face value. :)

Wow, Special, how exciting, Brothers possibly being filmed in Boston!

My money is on Jake front and center at the Celtics/Lakers game, November 23rd. Thanksgiving on the Vineyard and Celtics/Lakers the next day . . .

Sounds fabulous, doesn't it?

Thanks for the great post!

Heads up all the UKers, Jake will be most likely be in London and on The Jonathan Ross Show on October 12th.

Great music, OMG! Great song by Flunk. Never heard of them but she sounds like Bjork who I love.

Special please post the TR/Ellen interview again on this new thread I def want peolple to see it and make comments. It was a very interesting interview and some specific comments tahe TR should be dicussed. Was he talking about Jake?

Florida Tom said...

^some specific comments that TR made

Special K said...

Here is the clip Tom is referring to.

This is Ellen and TR discussing dating and life.

TR on Ellen

Tbs and NETB- this is one of the sexiest songs I know. Someone needs to use this in a movie love scene! The record is called "Morning Star" and is worth buying if you like this song.

Just listened to TR. There is no reason that I can see to think he is talking specifically about Jake. There are just too many HW closet cases out there. I think he's talking to all of them!

Special K said...

What is great about TR's interview is how happy he is now.

Why it probably wasn't the way he chose to come out, I don't think he regrets being out now.

I agree there are many people in HW that people are hoping to come out and make a statement. I do think Jake's name is one on that list of many though.

TR is just wonderful, isn't he? Very sweet guy, and I adore Ellen. She'd make anyone feel comfortable. I really like how relaxed he seems talking with Ellen.

I think so too, everyone, they could be speaking about a lot of people who are closted in HW. It's great advice, whoever they are speaking about, I love TR's words "your own path" "respect", "soul-searching" because it's such an individual decision.

Wicked you are right, it's a dreamily sexy song - perfect for a love scene.

Wicked said...

To me, it sounds like TR is not trying to push anyone into coming out. He says people should come out in their own time and no one should force them. I love how he and Ellen talk so positively about the benefits of coming out while respecting that everyone needs to decide for themselves when the time is right for them to do this. They maintain a nice balance between being pro-out but understanding there are things that hold people back.

Ok, that guitar was the last straw for me and that Mark Seliger photoshoot is now officially one of my least favorite series of Jake pics! But thank God Jake is an actor first and foremost and along with Rendition there will be the director’s cut version of Zodiac that’s supposed to be jam-packed with goodies, YEAH!!!

What is great about TR's interview is how happy he is now.

He looks so comfortable and shall I say, terribly sexy too! I guess he would disagree with John Barrowman who said it was wrong for actors to stay in the closet solely for the sake of their career. By the way I just found out that JB will have a CD out in November with covers of “You’re so vain”, “Time after Time”, “She’s always a Woman". Will check it out.

I came home tonight to my newly arrived copy of “House of Usher”! I’ll probably watch it this Sunday. :) :) :)
