Grinding to a Halt

Looks like Jake is no longer attached to Mississippi Grind.

According to Indie Wire,  Ryan Reynolds is stepping into the role that was originally Jake's,  and the timetable for shooting it has now been pushed back from this month until next year.


It would appear he's replacing the originally attached Jake Gyllenhaal, in the story that centers on a down-on-his-luck gambler facing crushing debt, who teams up with a gambling addict (Reynolds), in an attempt to change his luck. The two then set off on a road trip through the South with visions of winning back what has been lost. And certainly in Fleck and Boden's hands, the end result will be something even more evocative than that logline. It's an interest cast with more to come, but there's plenty of time, as the movie doesn't even start filming until next year.

It looks like Jake will have plenty of time to find his inner prince-essence over the next couple of months, and work with some vocal coaches to fine tune his singing.  Jake's co-star James Cordon (The Baker in Into the Woods) also is in New York and was spotted in the private club SoHo House, which Jake has frequented both in LA and NY in the past.

 With Prisoners coming out this fall,  there might be some plane hopping and crossing the pond a bit while he begins filming Into the Woods.
 Speaking of Prisoners a new trailer with a lot more Detective Loki.  Check it out.

Beauty Alyssa moves on

Things are getting serious between Jake Gyllenhaal and Sports Illustrated model Alyssa Miller. Spies spotted a doting Gyllenhall helping Miller move out of her Chelsea apartment building Wednesday afternoon. Sources said Miller and her ex-boyfriend, fashion photographer Bjorn Iooss, who is the son of legendary SI photographer Walter Iooss Jr., lived in the same building, and at one point in the same apartment. But we’re told that the exes are still on good terms, and she was spotted walking with the Boston terrier they have shared. They’d been living in separate apartments for some time, and she moved out of the building altogether this week. Gyllenhaal was spotted parking his bike in the lobby, while he helped Miller take her stuff out. The model, however, is not moving in with Gyllenhaal just yet. We hear she’s still looking for a new place and has put her stuff into storage until she finds one. Reps for Miller and Gyllenhaal, who will star in the upcoming thriller “Prisoners,” had no comment.

Do you guys see a theme here? She puts a picture up on Instagram and the next thing you see an article in a magazine. Where were the popperazzi taking the pictures of these two? And how much stuff did she pack anyway? It looks like she moved out of a house instead of an apartment. And how does page 6 know she is looking for another apt ? And why would move out of an apartment if your boyfriend lives in another part of the building? One more observation she is going to be in Vegas why not leave the dog with jake since she is her new love? All in two weeks!

prairiegirl said...

Ha, they even misspelled his name within the article. Plus, that article has the writing level of a middle schooler.

This is one of the sloppiest, most slapped together piece of fauxmance, man oh man. It's got the taste of a bad Mrs Crabbits over-the-hedge gossip tidbit. I mean, lol, they're not even serious, I don't think.

Maybe it's all a parody or a mocking, it's that bad. I can't even muster up a good LOL, let alone a Bwah. Nope, can't even capitalize the 'B', it's not worthy. lol

prairiegirl said...

That chick who posted the Pant Peeing Sidewalk Facebook account and subsequently took down two posts about the kissing etc. decided to take her act to her blog instead. A mere 2 hours after I had posted she took down her posts, here came a blogpost about her seeing the two lovebirds kissing at a pizza place in Chelsea.

And you know, I would repost the article or even provide the link but I'm not giving that chick the hits on her blog. The whole thing reeks of self promotion and Management plant. It's compost, lol.

But I mention it because she claimed to have witnessed the smooching this week, adding thunder to this sudden, whirlwind, out of control passionate affair. wow. lol.

It's beyond comprehension; it's that silly, elementary and poorly played out and really belongs with the Biebs/Selena Gonez demographic.

prairiegirl said...

As has been the pattern before, what is most likely happening right now is the Gyllenichols family or Jake himself are on the move right now. This is suddenly starting to look like cover.

He disappears and here comes the new Prisoners trailer and all this fauxmance fiction on the Internet. It's a trend we've been seeing for the past couple of years at least.

And if this flushes the overtly shy pair out, all the better, lol!

prairiegirl said...

Maybe one of the funniest aspects of that article is the mention of the bicycle, the latest internet story 'prop' of Jake's. The bicycle now appears like a photo bomb within tweets, facebook, now Page 6.

And this riding up to help move that UHaul load is pretty sweet, well it reminds me of Henry Huggins or Richie Cunningham rushing to help out Ramona or MaryBeth.

Or Kevin and Winnie.

;D

You all just have a grand day.

Well, this is not the first time jake has been linked to a movie only to have it not come to pass. But it sounded like a good plot so somewhat disappointing to hear he is out.

Disney continues to exert their influence. We can't have Prince Charming give any hints of being gay, now can we.

destiny said...

LOL PG, I can just see Jake chasing that Uhaul on his bike, because you know that's what you do when you're madly in love.

And who moves out without another place to live? Especially in NYC, where it can take some time to rent a place.

It's probably more difficult for the average person to keep track of the names of SI models, as opposed to singers and movie stars. I think that may account for one of the reasons they've become the beards of choice--it makes it more difficult to remember they've had a string of rumored gay boyfriends.

Special K said...

Another movie that Jake had been attached The Way Way Back is coming out now and is getting great reviews. It looks really good. I have to say seeing the trailer made me really curious about what it would have been like if Jake had stayed with the project.

Special K said...

Great point Destiny about moving out and not having a place to move especially in NYC.

But then again it if you are a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model apartments magically happen.

Speaking of which why would she get a U-haul and move herself? Wouldn't she just call up a moving company to do that for her? Oh wait, that doesn't make as much of a dramatic (or romantic) turn does it, if guys name Gus and Vinnie pack it all up and move it out.

Kismet said...

All this insider info, and for such a private guy. Huh.

Nice to know Page Six is Jake's go-to rag for this fauxmance. Further proof that the original exclusive on the relationship broken by Page Six was a plant by his people.

This bit about living in different apartments is rewriting history, an attempt to cover their bases because the beard and her boyfriend hadn't cleaned up their various social media accounts yet, and it was obvious they lived together and were still very much a couple until mid-June.

whew said...

we’re told that the exes are still on good terms

Whew! That'll make it so much easier when they get back together in August.

Kismet said...

That blogger probably took her photos off Facebook because she's attempting to sell them. All Jake wanted, though, was for them to end up on social media. That's why they kissed in front of a restaurant window full of people. They'll have nice, clear papped photos for the print tabloids, thank you very much, with branded coffee cups in hand.

OMG-Yahoo:

Is Jake Gyllenhaal Dating Another Swimsuit Model?
By Jenny Depper | omg! – Wed, Jun 19, 2013 3:30 PM EDT
Jake Gyllenhaal sure moves quickly!
Before we could even say "string bikini," it looks like the "End of Watch" actor has ditched his rumored girlfriend, model Emily DiDonato, in favor of another "Sports Illustrated" Swimsuit Issue stunner, Alyssa Miller.
The 32-year-old hunk was spotted making out with Miller, 23, at the Cold Process coffee shop at Pier 57 along the Hudson River in New York City.
According to an eyewitness, the loved-up duo couldn't get enough of each other and were very affectionate when they weren't locking lips. Our source said Gyllenhaal looked casual in a blue T-shirt and a black baseball cap, while his new lady friend rocked an all-denim ensemble.
Whether these two are indeed an official item is yet to be determined, but they definitely have one thing in common: They're both Yankees fans.
The Guess model, who, according to Twitter, had to hit the road this week for work, tweeted a snap of a Yankees baseball cap with a heart and the caption, "Bringing NY with me." Her baseball cap is almost identical to to the one Jakey G regularly wears around town.
One has to wonder if that cap is actually hers or if it really belongs to another Yankees fan…

Jake Gyllenhaal Takes a Kiss-Filled Bike Ride with SI Model Alyssa Miller
By Andrea Billups 06/21/2013 at 09:00 AM EDT
Jake Gyllenhaal is enjoying a romantic summer in the city, taking a weekend bike ride with a new friend, Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Alyssa Miller.
The affectionate duo was spotted at the Cold Process Coffee and Tea pop-up stand at New York's Pier 57 last Sunday around 3 p.m. As they ordered refreshments, the couple couldn't resist sneaking in a few sweet smacks on the lips.
An onlooker told PEOPLE that Gyllenhaal, 32, who was a presenter two weeks ago at the Tony Awards ceremony in New York, and brunette Miller, 23 , who made her SI debut in 2011, appeared to be more than just friends as they were sweetly affectionate with each other.
"You could tell they were a couple. There was lots of PDA going on," the eyewitness said of their bike date. "They didn't make out, but they would kiss each other on the lips multiple times. More like little pecks and they were very touchy-feely. They couldn't keep their hands off of each other."
The two were with some friends and hung out talking for about 20 minutes at a picnic table. They seemed relaxed and happy.
"There was lots of laughing," the source said. "Jake and the girl were totally comfortable with each other. Jake had a huge smile the whole time."
Gyllenhaal's rep would not comment on the relationship.

Jake Gyllenhaal Dating Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model Alyssa Miller
Celebrity News June 21, 2013 AT 1:00PM By Nicole Eggenberger
Jake Gyllenhaal has found a mate in a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model. The 32-year-old actor is currently dating Alyssa Miller, a source confirms to Us Weekly.
Earlier this week, the New York Post's Page Six was first to report on the 32-year-old actor's new relationship with Miller, 23. The two were spotted having lunch together last week at downtown Manhattan eatery the Dutch in New York City, and were later seen "making out" at Cold Process Coffee & Tea.
A source explained to Us of their lunch date: "They came in as a couple. They were very quiet and private, Jake seemed into her. They were both dressed down and not easily recognizable."
A second insider adds, "They met at their gym. It's very new. They really like each other, but it's new."
But the "End of Watch" actor doesn't seem to stay in relationships for very long. Last summer, he had a brief romance with Minka Kelly, and before that dated Taylor Swift from three months in late 2010. Gyllenhaal was also in a relationship with his Rendition costar, Reese Witherspoon, from 2007 to 2009.

How Jake Gyllenhaal Won Over New Model Girlfriend Alyssa Miller
Wednesday June 26, 2013 10:54 AM EDT
It took a while before Alyssa Miller agreed to be Jake Gyllenhaal's girlfriend, and 'In Touch' knows why!
Jake Gyllenhaal doesn’t give up easily!
In Touch can reveal that after a year of chasing Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Alyssa Miller, he finally got the 23-year-old beauty to give in and be his girlfriend.
“Jake made a major play for her,” an insider says of Alyssa, who first met Jake, 32, about a year ago at their shared NYC gym. “She told him she had a boyfriend, but Jake endlessly called and texted her.”
Did Jake’s smooth moves lead the beauty to break up with her guy of two years? According to the source close to Alyssa, “Jake’s main line was: 'If I can’t be your boyfriend I will be your best friend.'"
And now she and the Source Code star seem to be making up for lost time! “They couldn’t keep their hands off each other,” a witness who saw the duo on June 16 at NYC’s Cold Process Coffee and Tea tells In Touch. “They seemed really into each other.”

Jake Gyllenhaal Dating New SI Model! Who Is Alyssa Miller And What Happened To Emily DiDonato? (PHOTOS)

By Noelle Chehab June 20, 2013 3:17 PM



Jake Gyllenhaal may be off the market, with new reports that the handsome actor is dating Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Alyssa Miller surfacing.

Gyllenhaal and Miller, who is nine years younger than the actor, were spotted in New York City dining together at Soho hotspot the Dutch. The rumored couple then made their way over to Cold Process Coffee & Tea where they apparently indulged in some PDA with onlookers saying they were “making out.”

News of Gyllenhaal’s romance with Miller comes just weeks after he was believed to be dating another swimsuit model, Emily DiDonato. Sources said Gyllenhaal and DiDonato split after dating for a few months, but the Source Code actor clearly has a penchant for runway girls, proven by his latest girlfriend. Fueling speculation that Gyllenhaal is a modelizer, he has frequented the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show with Leonardo DiCaprio who also is a serial model dater.

Miller, who at 24-years-old has had enjoyed much modeling success including Vogue Germany and Elle Italy covers, may be looking to settle down with her new beau, having recently dished that sharing her success is of the utmost priority to her. “Success isn’t worth much without someone to share it with,” Miller said. “I try not to lose sight of that.” The model also revealed that the most important quality in a man is “passion,” and her Brokeback Mountain boyfriend certainly has a lot to offer.

Gyllenhaal has had his fair share of high-profile relationships, including romances with Kirsten Dunst, Reese Witherspoon and Taylor Swift, who is said to have wrote the heart-wrenching song “All Too Well” about the actor. Although Swift was reportedly crushed by the breakup, made evident by the tear jerking lyrics on the track, she said she’s not the on-again off-again type.

“I think once a relationship is done it’s done, you can’t do that back and forth thing — it’s the most exhausting process,” Taylor said. “I think you have to have somebody that’s dependable, that isn’t going to change their mind every five seconds.”

While Gyllenhaal certainly didn’t change his mind with Swift, after all her intimate ballad didn’t even win the actor back, he definitely has trouble making up his mind when it comes to models!


Jake Gyllenhaal is quickly getting a reputation for being a modelizer

Florida Tom said...

This is really some good stuff. Very sad though:-(

the real m said...

Hilarious, really. They all just parrot each other. I thought she just got out of a relationship after Jakes hard effort to win her so don't understand the need for someone to share success with. Did she not share with the prior boyfriend? I'm waiting to see what Dlisted does with this. ENT lawyer had a blind recently about someone shopping models, but the rub was that he shopped both male and female. The males kept quiet of course, and Jakes name was guessed a few times, though not predominate. Clearly the stories are being planted to straighten his image. Must have been being spotted with his kid that sent them into overdrive. That and Disney.
