Jake, Maggie and Peter celebrate Uncle Vanya's Opening Night

Sensational pictures this morning of Jake Gyllenhaal, Maggie and Peter and friends at the opening party of Uncle Vanya last night. It's been a while since we've had pictures of the three of them together but these make up for that in abundance. And not only do we get more of The Hat, huge smiles from a very proud brother, we also get the added bonus of Chest Hair! It's a good day.











Thanks to Get Real for identifying the blonde lady as Meryl Streep's daughter Mamie Gummer.

Many thanks to IHJ for these wonderful pictures - there are lots more there.

Happy sigh! Sorry, the fangirl in me has taken over my brain cells... Hi everyone!

How I love to see Jake smile like that :D

Squeeee!!! A smiling and geniunely happy Jake is the best sight :)

Haha... actually they all looked a bit tipsy and happy-tired there, perhaps those are "after" the opening night?

Great pics! Thanks, WDW... I am so happy Jake is in good company.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Squeeee indeed, Winterbird! It's a great sight :D Peter definitely looks a little tipsy! They're such lovely pics... Jake looks very happy.

And the sun's out here too - perfect. Not bad for a Friday 13th :D

Shining eyes, bright smiles, overflowing happiness, that's what I missed the most!
Jake is the best sigh...t!

Sometimes I think I come here for two reasons only:
1. Have fun with the best people I know over the cyberspace.
2. To check if Jake's doing okay.

Of course "okay' is a particular point of view that has nothing to do with the quality of his work or his own concept of being okay. I look for his eyes in the pictures to see the light in them. End of story. Do I have the right to do it? Does it matter what I think about it? Probably not...but I'm happy in this pretentious way of mine.
My J-happiness-meter is completely satisfied this morning.

Have a wonderful day, you all.

Oh...I forgot to say that I think this coat is opened because it's from BEFORE PoP. Can that be?

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hey there Monica O! I love your reasons for coming here *)

Well I'm smiling away so I know these pictures of Jake looking so happy are doing me a LOT of good. Both he and Maggie are absolutely shining. My J-happiness-meter is completely satisfied too :)

I think Jake won't button up his coat because a) he knows how hot he looks in the white t-shirt and white shirt (LOVE that shirt!) and b) because it has a gorgeous crimson lining.

Have a good day!

Also because it really isn't that cold,in NYC. If you've noticed over the years, I've seen Jake going coatless very often or sweaterless, when other people around him are wearing coats or sweaters or hoodies. Maggie looks like she is ten feet off the ground.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi there Anon! Maggie really does look like she's floating - wonderful. It amuses me when Jake's in London and it's warm and he dresses for the depths of Arctic winter and then at other times he's in LA on a cool day and he's just got the t-shirt! I find it endearing - I'm still having a fangirl moment clearly!

OMG, YAY!!!!!!!! Such amazing pictures! Oh, they all look so happy and fantastic!

But I have horrible news on my end. Because of my event I wasn't able to get to the theatre to see all this amazingness. :( :(

At least these pictures make me feel better.

Sigh, I have missed the three of them together so much! :D

Sorry to spam again, lol, but I also love the picture of Jake and Mamie Gummer, the blonde who is Meryl Streep's daughter. I remember the story Meryl told of Jake and her son being friends as children. :)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Oh I'm sorry to hear of your bad luck, Get Real, but I'm really pleased these lovely pics are making up for the disappointment. I've really missed the three of them together too. This is a wonderful sigh. I think these pictures of Jake and Maggie will become my favourites of the two of them together :)

My word is table :/

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Thanks so much for that, Get Real! I had no idea who she was, so that's great to get a name for the face :D

Posting at the same time *)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

^^^ Me again... I updated the post with the info - thanks Get Real!

Jake, Jake Jake....really, you don't need to wear jeans that have a white strip of lining inside the zipper fly that visually draws the eye to check out your hot crotch nether region. It's not as if we don't look there already. *sigh*

Monica said...

Hello, wet dark!

It is great to see Jake, Maggie and Peter together!

Monica O, here is one of the few places about Jake makes me feel good.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi Auto Zoom! You're right - it is a little... ahem... distracting. I think it's a button fly... ahem... sigh :D

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hey Monica! Posting at the same time :D That's a lovely thing to say, thank you *) Hope you're having a good day.

Oh My God I am just LOVING these pictures! Look at those smiles! Look at that laughter! Happy Happy Happy! I think Jake needs to spend more time in NYC :)

It's so good to see Jake, Maggie and Peter all in the same spot for the first time in a long time. Now if we could only add Mom and Ramona to the mix (but not late at night of course)!

It seems everyone here is enjoying these pictures as much as I am! Whooowheee!

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hey BBMISwear! So good to see you :D Everything about these pictures makes me happy - they shine. It's nice thinking of the fun going on in the GyllenGaard home with Naomi and Ramona there too. I hope Jake has a wonderful break. This is all great for us too!

My word is abitacat - hmmm

sheba said...

Thanks WDW. Gosh, this has got to be the best Friday 13th going. Love the pics. How wonderful to see them all together again and clearly happy. Does that mean the pictures we saw yesterday were of Jake on his way to the theatre?

Anyway..... (squeeeeeeeeeee- there's a first time for everything)

Ruby said...

Great pics. :D

I think I need some booze to catch up with them all, they have definitely had a drop or two. Or several. :)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi there Sheba! Definitely a very lucky Friday 13th :D I think the earlier pics were of Jake leaving a clothes store - I don't think he had this same gorgeous shirt on then. Sigh :) ooh, first time squuueeeee? My first was on Bafta night 2007! You always remember the moment!

Hey Rubes :D Yep, you're right and I'm setting myself a mission to catch up. Jake and the others may have needed a bit of a lie-in today!

Hope we're all having a good evening - a lovely way to start the weekend :)

Atticus said...

*looks at green crocs, gray clogs, holey teh jeans, olive pants, 159 hats, blue shiney shorts*

*can't decide what to chew, gets tired, lies down, sighs heavy, falls asleep*

Anonymous said...

Atticus, my love, it's a chewing fest! Go ahead for ALL of them, quicky! No need to "decide", just do it while Daddy is out of town. He won't get mad...he'll think it's his fault for leaving you alone, and he'll probably give you some time with him! GO!

LOL Auto Zoom! I thought I was the only one letting the eyes fall there. I'd never tell.
*blushes*

Monica, this is the only Jake-place I go! :)
Friday 13th is ending...is it saturday yet?

xoxo

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Oh Atti, you have some difficult choices... Please start with the crocs and the shiney blue shorts and then move on to the beanies. But do leave us Teh Jeans *)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

I love how we all keep posting at the same time! Hi Monnie O! We need to keep Atti company while Jake's away :) Nearly Saturday. I wonder what Jake's been up to today.

Anonymous said...

Jake looks awesome, Peter is so handsome, and Maggie is beaming! What a great set of pictures!

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hey Bandgeek! I'm still smiling :D

Zodiac said...

What a wonderful set of pictures!

He could lit the city with this smile:)

Love it, love them.

I've had a Friday 13th kinda day, but these gorgeous pictures more than make up for it...oh, but its 0:00 am, so its the 14th..;D

Anonymous said...

TD, It's not yet Saturday around here, but in 20 minutes I'm going to get officially rid of this day. Thanks god!

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Morning Zodiac! It's so lovely to see that smile - it's my new desktop :D

Sorry you had such a bad day, TD :( I hope today's much better.

(((Monnie O))) Have a lovely Saturday.

Ahh, Mr WDW got me the biggest box of chocs I've ever seen - fine Belgian chocolates including two chocolates which comprise two halves of a lobster. I hope everyone has a good day!

Anonymous said...

Lobster chocs!

Have you stopped squeeeing yet, WDW? Nice pics, I do agree. Peter looks self-conscious, maybe sober? :D :D

My word is kulaster, hmmmm.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hey Nouskie! Peter does look relatively subdued (mind you, that's how I recall feeling after seeing Uncle Vanya once...). I just had a prawn chocolate :D

Off to the pictures - have a good day everyone!

O to be in NYC now that Jakey's there. . . picture number nine is classic Jake - and who are the other people? - anybody recognize the woman with the dimples with Maggie, and the woman arm in arm with Jake in the last picture? Maggie looks radiant.

Happy V day everybody! surely that's the meaning of the red silk lining in J's coat - :D -

& thanks WDW for the great pix

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hey Pia! NYC would be a good place to be :D The dimpled woman does look familar. Happy Val's day to you too! I'm on my own this evening (although with wine and chocolates) so I'm spending my evening here :D But what Jake film to watch?
