Jake Gyllenhaal of the Zodiac fame, raised quite a few eyebrows with his lean figure at the 17th Annual Hollywood Film Awards. The actor has lost around 10 kgs in order to convincingly play a freelance crime reporter in his upcoming film Nightcrawler.
'I'm playing a character who's hungry, figuratively and literally, who's driven in ways to do things and succeed at any cost.', Gyllenhaal told E! News.
Jake Gyllenhaal, who was People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive in 2009 believes that losing all that weight was natural to him as an actor and there was no specific regime that he followed. It was just his love for the role that helped him do it. 'It's not different than getting into character for anything. It's more about believing where you are and being present where you are. Who's to say what the process is? I have a strange one but I love what I do.', he told People Magazine.
The actor whose cheekbones were clearly visible at the award function, told GQ Australia about his love for food. 'I'm obsessed with food. I love eating in general, but if I'm somewhere on location, I tend to find one restaurant and weirdly will eat one or two things that I love. Then I'll know I'm going there at the end of the day to eat that thing.', he said. (Read: How celeb trainer Ramona Braganza got Hollywood hunks in shape (Exclusive))
We are very happy with the actor's dedication to get into the skin of a character, and can't wait to watch the movie ourselves. That said, we hope to see the Prince of Persia hunk with a better physique soon.
