The talented actor has played in several films, including the critically acclaimed Love & Other Drugs and the cop drama End of Watch. He also appeared in the thriller Nightcrawler, and directed and produced it himself. His acting skills have garnered nominations for several awards. However, his filmography is still not complete. There are numerous upcoming projects that he hopes to make, and these include:
Ambulance
While not Oscar-worthy, Jake Gyllenhaal’s Ambulance is pure cinematic fun. Director Michael Bay’s signature style combines intense action scenes with slow-motion sequences and riveting dialogue. Ambulance also stars Eiza Gonzalez and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. You’ll need at least 30 minutes to adjust to the film’s intense action sequences.
Donnie Darko
Donnie Darko is a sleepwalker who wakes up one night and sleepwalks out of his house, only to find a giant rabbit in his room. When he wakes up the next morning, he discovers a jet engine has crashed into his bedroom, and he’s left to decide if a parallel universe exists or if he’s suffering from a mental illness.
The Day After Tomorrow
In this sci-fi thriller, the world is on the brink of a catastrophic superstorm, which will cause massive destruction throughout the world. The movie follows a group of scientists, led by climatologist Jack Hall, played by Dennis Quaid. As their research is largely ignored by U.N. officials, their work eventually proves to be true. Meanwhile, the team must trek from Philadelphia to New York on foot, battling the elements to get to Sam before it’s too late.
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
In this action adventure movie, the Sands of Time are mysterious places that give mortals the power to travel back in time. Dastan, adopted son of the king of Persia, acquires a dagger that grants him access to the Sands. He goes on the run with his adopted princess Tamina after he is accused of killing his father. The duo must try to figure out who is behind the murder and rescue their adopted father.
Gyllenhaal’s relationship with Taylor Swift
In December 2010, Taylor Swift and Jake Gyllenhaal had a three-month relationship. Many fans attributed their relationship to Taylor Swift’s iconic scarf, which she wore in pictures with Jake. Despite the controversy, the couple did not break up. Instead, their relationship continued to grow. It’s not surprising that Taylor Swift’s fourth album, Red, has been regarded as her first true breakup album.
