Blister in the Sun

Austin  tweeted a family portrait yesterday

TWD  family portrait

#TWDFamily

And followed it up with a close up just in case you missed it.


But upon closer inspection... Rosita who?


A little background on the handsy fella.  Josh McDermitt plays Eugene Porter who he claims to be a scientist who knows the cure to the zombie plague

OMG is thinking there were some other tweets Austin tried before he settled on that one.

Top Ten Rejected Tweets for Austin's TWD family close up 

10. This is good, but my Laker lean is better.

9.  I thought the Professor on Gilligan's Island was the hot one too.

8.  humming ..."big hands I know you're the one"

7.  The whole thing with Rosita was just to get you Eugene.

6. It's that banjo's I hear? 

5.  Is Josh confusing me with the other Austin?

4.  Who can resist a man with a mullet?

3.  Just going to tell management I was taking his hand off my knee when the
paparazziset photographer snapped the picture.

2. I'm giddy that finally someone makes my hands look so petite!

and the number on tweet idea that got rejected:

Which will Jake notice first me wearing his chain or  Josh's hand on my knee?

Got 'im the palm of his hand

or How to put your interviewee into a spin.


Start the interview by asking about the project they're on to promote


Then ask innocently ask them about the injury they have that has been in all the papers and all over the internet.

What happened to your hand?

Watch the wind up and then the spin begin.
Now go in for the close up.

I'm with the audience on this one.  How to you punch a mirror with your palm?
 Watch them spin tighter than a top.
 Don't look dizzy while they spin.
 Nope! This is not my woozy face.

Very Handy

It almost looks like Jake's campaign trail is the in the middle of The Heartland.



 But it's really Sunday's stop to Long Island and the Museum of Moving Images.

Having a good laugh

And the Hollywood equivalent of kissing babies.

It also looks like Jake's hand is on the mend.  But it does appear that his injuries are not his knuckles but lower,  his palm perhaps.  That would be a tough place for stitches and to keep protected from infection while healing.


 Happy Hanukkah!

On the Trail

Despite the hurt hand Jake was once again back on the campaign trail this time in New York.


While it might be "no sleep
til  in Brooklyn",  Jake's campaign hq looks like Tribeca and was seen officially popping in and out of a hotel on Friday heading out for a campaign lunch.

Keeping his hurt paw warm and protected under a cozy looking shearling jacket,


Jake was looking like his old self  hitting all the fashion marks in an impeccably tailored tweed suit.  And check out those shiny shoes!



Even Jake's hand is impeccably wrapped too.  That's a hard job especially one handed.  Talk about needing an extra pair of hands to help. 

Jake was joined by Denis and Melissa again to chat  about Prisoners with S.A.G. east  while co-star Hugh Jackman  chose to continue to recoup in NYC after disclosing he had a small basel cell carcinoma removed from his nose.

It looks like the Prisoners campaign model is "early  and often".  Here's hoping Jake gets holiday time off for good behavior.

Comfy Cozy


 Don't call him Clapton  because he's no slow hand.  Jake has been getting around LA just fine and it looks like filming is really over for Nightcrawler now.

Monday night Jake attened the 2013 Casting Society of America’s Artios Awards held at The Beverly Hilton Hotel.  And it was just all for fun?  Nope  He had some work to do presenting.






Could  this be award show training?  Or is he now going back for all those cheese puffs he passed on for the last 2 months?


And today found Jake getting some Jewish Deli comfort food at Nate ‘n Al restaurant.

Talk about comfy Jake's got a soft and cozy cashmere sweater draped over his hurt paw.  Is it a little TLC ?   Or a little cover from those prying eyes that are trying to get a better look at it? Or that he didn't want any one to see what he was bringing home in the take home container.

One thing is didn't want to hide, is his big chain. It's back and you  can't miss that.

Left hook

Nothing like a hurt paw is going to keep Jake from his appointed rounds.

First it was the Prisoners Variety screening with Maria Bello onThursday.  And from folks who tweeted and fb'd about it said he gave a inspiring and heartfelt speech about acting.




And next up it was Jake at AMPAS  (5 points for those who know that the acronym stand for) Governors Award


You can see Jake knuckles are fuller on his left hand.  He must have popped that mirror good.  But breaking a mirror Jakey brings 7 yrs bad luck.  Not what you want going into award season buddy.

But its not just his fingers fuller.  Check out that puss.  No longer that gaunt look Jake great with his cheeks and those dimples back.  Don't lose them again Jake.

Give him a hand

For the squeamish, those who don't want to be spoiled, or who just don't want Jake to lose those great assets he showed off in LaOD read no further.


"The door opens and there to greet visitors is the actor Jake Gyllenhaal. Half of him, anyway. He has been severed below the waist. Rather crudely at that, if his bloodied entrails are any indication. He's also missing his hands. But his face is perfectly intact and his beard is nicely trimmed. He even seems at peace with the world.

It takes a few seconds to realize that this is not what's left of the Brokeback Mountain star, but is actually a near flawless, though partial, Gyllenhaal facsimile, made of clay, acetone, silicone, putty, resins -and one dreads to know what else." - Ottawa Citizen

Looks like Jake got do something he's never had a chance before in a movie, extensive special effects make up. He's put his body through some pretty amazing things to get into his roles, and has been squibbed before (squibs are the blood packets that explode to look like gunshots, explosions) but losing limbs to a train in a battle of man vs. ticking time bomb, is a first.

This is a Sci-Fi Action movie, action with a capital A. And that's what the audience is going to get.

While Duncan is the man who is creating the vision for SC, the man who is creating Jake is Montreal native and Oscar nominee Adrien Morot.

No doubt Jake had to spend some time in the chair being molded so the master could sculpt his mutilated masterpiece. Somewhere in a Montreal workshop there are casts to make a life size Jake, well half a Jake, and in need of a hand out.

Last time in Montreal

Need a hand with that?

Jake was out yesterday at the Four Season in LA. While some are reporting it was a social call, it looks like it was more of a press thing getting ready for Source Code's opening.

UPDATE: New - 2nd trailer for Source Code

Hand Jive

FADE IN ON:

Group sitting around a table in a conference room.

Several ladies along one side, a gentleman sitting directly across from them. The women are reviewing a dossier with their client.

"Now this is the trademark shout out."


"Let's try it again."

"No, not Subway's $5 foot long."


"Close, but two hands Jake two hands."

"Ok, you got the two hands but put them together."

"Now turn your hands so your fingers are up on top and you almost have it."

"Come on. Now that's just 'This is the church, here is the steeple'."


"Seriously? You're going there?"


"Now that's just pointing."

"Wait wait you're just doing Reese now."


"And before you even think it Mister. No flipping the bird."




Happy Hanukkah!
