"From a haunted teen on the brink of the end in Richard Kelly's time-displacing Donnie Darko to the yearning ranch hand in Ang Lee's Brokeback Mountain, the perverse and desperate freelancer in Dan Gilroy's Nightcrawler to the deranged zoologist in Bong Joon-Ho's morally reflective Okja and the puppy-eyed commitment-phobe in Edward Zwick's Love & Other Drugs, Jake Gyllenhaal 's cinematic oeuvre is nothing if not diverse."
"Gyllenhaal is a household name. It turns out, he's also a household kind of guy. The actor is an avid chef, a bon vivant. When he's not on set, he's likely in the kitchen. "I love reading cookbooks and experimenting with new recipes," he tells us. Yossy Arefi, Claire Saffitz and Alison Roman are among his favourite culinary names. Gyllenhaal has been an ambassador for the luxury Italian homeware brand Ginori 1735 for three years."
Jake Gyllenhaal's career spans an unusually wide range of characters, from haunted teenagers and yearning ranch hands to morally ambiguous antiheroes and eccentric figures. He founded Nine Lives, a genre-defying production company named after JD Salinger's short story collection. He collects cookbooks, loves baking, experiments with recipes and cites Yossy Arefi, Claire Saffitz and Alison Roman as culinary influences. He serves as a Ginori 1735 ambassador and starred in the brand's short film portraying morning kitchen rituals. Upcoming projects include Maggie Gyllenhaal's gothic horror The Bride! with Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale, and a rom-com with M. Night Shyamalan.
