Some more interviews of Jake discussing Lou Bloom and Nightcrawler.

First is an interview with the CBC Radio show “Q with Jian Ghomeshi .  In the interview talks about " on privacy and voyeurism; shares how he got into the head of his sociopathic character; and why he's drawn to challenging and often darker roles." Jake also talks about why he decided to become a producer on the movie.



Jake sat down with IndieWire for a discussion of the movie and his character which resulted in several video clips.

This first clip shows off Jake's great memory as he reenacts the entire opening scene of Nightcrawler.

Bit more TIFF

A few more moments from Jake at TIFF

I think you should move you hand Rene, the movie's over.

 If this kid says kale one more time, I swear.

 I thought they meant Canadian Tuxedo on the invitation.

 I heard from Denis that if you tickle his chin, he grins.

It's settled.  We'll shop, they'll surf.

Smile!

Don't think Jake out of Canada without some interviews.  

Here are just a couple of the many.

IndieWire's  interview

And an interview with K92.5   who's reporter ask if he can sit in Jake's lap, and also teaches him how to say the word NEWS.

Nightcrawler is getting a great response from the audience and critics alike. 

Expressway

Following Jake all these years, one of the best part of film festivals could be the press conferences, and what makes them so good are all the expressions shots they capture of the dimpled dude.

 I have no idea what point you are trying to make.

 Moi?

My hairstyles do I have names for  them? 

 Long  - there's "my little pony"

 Short - Right now this is the Gyllentickle.

 I guess you could go with cerulean to describe my eyes.  I would go with  azure.

 I have no idea what you are talking about, is that aboot?

 You, yeah you,  you want to bring that note you're trying to pass up here, mister.

 I might do my hands like The Donald, but I will not do the hair for Demolition

 Well it's like a plane it go



All good.  But what about a grin?  He gives those too.

Talk about turning  back TIFF time

Canadian Goose

Even Grey Goose knows it's Austin Friday

In A Flash

Jake was spotted hopping into a cab into a couple of days ago,

And it's kind of familiar

Check out that flash of leg

Not sure if there is much of chance of him flashing ankles now that he's  in Toronto at TIFF. 

But then you never know.  Things could get crazy at one of EW.com party that Jake is one of the special guests.  Or at the movie's after party at Soho House.

Remember this is Toronto.

Nightcrawler premieres Friday night.

Also in Toronto this week will be Jake's future director and castmate for Demolition.  Deadline is confirming that Naomi Watts will star opposite Jake Gyllenhaal in Demolition.

 The movie is the story is of a "young investment banker struggling to understand his emotional unraveling after the tragic death of his wife. Suddenly a woman he meets in a chance encounter changes his life forever."   Filming begins September 15 in New York City.

Naomi will be in TIFF promoting her new movie and Demolition's director Jean-Marc Vallee is also at TIFF with his new film, Wild, starring Reese Witherspoon.  

Fantastic News

At the beginning of the month, it was announced that Nightcrawler would be premiering at Toronto International Film Fest. And TIFF is coming up fast. As in next week. (Where did summer go?)

Nightcrawler's world premiere will be at the Elgin/Winter Theatres on Friday, September 5th, at 9:00 pm, with additional screenings on the following Saturday, at noon, and then again on Friday, September 12th.

And while The Great White North is the international red carpet premiere of Nightcrawler, Jake and crew are taking the movie way down south for the U.S. premiere.

Now wherever could that be?

Can you say "Deep in the Heart of Texas"

The U.S. red carpet premiere of "Nightcrawler" was the highlight of the second wave of announcements coming out today about Austin, TX's upcoming 10th anniversary edition of Fantastic Fest, which runs from Sept. 18-25th.

The movie premiere will close out the festival which takes place at the newly reopened Alamo South Lamar and Highball theaters.

Fantastic Fest focuses on off-the-radar genre films from U.S. and abroad
and is "largest genre film festival in the U.S., specializing in horror, fantasy, sci-fi, action and just plain fantastic movies from all around the world."

 Don't think they had a tough time convincing one of the movie's producers to bring Nightcrawler to Texas, do you?
