As LAOD opens in places, Esquire outtakes of Jake Gyllenhaal (and dog) and The Early Show

This emergency post - brought to you on the day in which Love and Other Drugs finally opens somewhere if not everywhere - has been necessitated by that most irresistible of photo opportunities: Jake Gyllenhaal cuddling a rather oddlooking but cute dog.


We also can see that Jake took our shaving suggestions far too much to heart, resorting to shears.


These photographs are outtakes from Esquire UK and show that they did have some great photos all the time, they just decided not to use them. Thanks to IHJ for the pictures. Please note how I'm not mentioning the feet.




With further thanks to IHJ, here is Jake on this morning's Early Show, demonstrating that Jake is back on his feet.



To all those who are able to see Love and Other Drugs today ENJOY! I know you will.

    Thanks so much for this post, WDW! I was rudely interrupted this morning as I was trying to watch the interview on The Early Show and missed the entire middle of it! Now that I've seen all of it I can resume my countdown to seeing LAOD tonight - less than 8 hours to go! (Who knows, I may need a field in which to frolic tonight!!)

    OMG! I should be working, since it's already late and I wanna go to the hotel, but I have to comment on what idiots those Esquire people are! I mean, look at those pics!!!!! LOOK AT THEM!!! I don't dislike the ones they picked as some others maybe do, but with these they could have done soooooooo much better! The scissors pic is beyond hot - I might have to make that my background pic at work if it is big enough, which would be a first, since I keep my Gyllenhaalism pretty much down at work and use only the subtlest of Brokeback pics as background... But that pic! OMFG! Maybe I should start and stand proud as a Gyllenhaalic!!
    And the pic with the dog is soooo cute!! And I don't mind the feet, not at all!! :D :D

    But back to work without scissors Jake for now!

    And to all you US-people out there: Enjoy LAOD!!!!!!!

    And I am looking forward to catching up on loads of new videos when I come back home tomorrow night!!!! Thanks WDW!! :)

    Gyllenhaalisgr8, have a FAB time but we are all sure you will!!!

    Thanks WDW, I saw these pix earlier at IHJ and just...wow. I especially love the Bye Face Pet one, I love the pose! And the mag released these ones (much better imho) at this time... bah. Well at least they did!

    Those Esquire photos were amazing. Still fanning myself off over here.

    Ok, that interview was so funny. The part about the Care Bears and how he wants to be in the clouds with them. I was literally laughing out loud. He's so charming!

    Hi!
    Thank you for the post WDW. It's nice to see such beautiful pictures of Jake here. I forgot to mention in my last comment that I like also the picture with Jake's hand underneath his sweater and the way he frowns and how he looks in his tight trousers :). Very pretty picture.
    I'm happy to see Jake healthy enough to make this The Early Show.
    Thank you Tiffany, that you mentioned Care Bears. I could googled it and I found out what Jake was talking about. Cute.

    I hope gyllenhaalisgr8 that you survived seeing LAOD with all your medicine and you will write sincere opinion about the movie.
    I am really wonder what all of you girls in USA will think about the LAOD after watching it, because sometimes when excitement is so huge, it may be difficult to satisfy all the expectations. Just let us know.

    Hi again!
    How could I forgot about Jake's bare feet :) I like them very much. I am sensitive to nice men's feet. And combination of bare feet, beard and black coat and pants is irresistible.

    I hear you on the feet Mermon! ;-)

    These pics are really strange, but kinda hot. :D. I like the last one where he's fondling his own chest. There's a lot of concentration going on there. :D

    Thanks WDW for the sexy pics and the yummy dinner. xxx

    Hello everyone! Just got home from a lovely evening out with Rubes in a city full of protesting students (not that we saw any...)

    Hi Susan! Not long now :D

    Hope you enjoyed it Gyllenhaalisgr8 :D

    Hey Uli! I really disliked the Esquire pics - just look at these, so much better, so much more interesting and unusual.Cute, hot and sharp. Yep, stand proud!!

    Hi there Snow!

    Waves to Tiffany :D

    Hi Mermon! I hate feet, so I'm ignoring those pics :D

    My pleasure, Rubes, and thank you for a wonderful evening xxx

    Thanks JF!

    Now I know how Jake sounds recovering from a cold. That is a cute interview. So nice.

    All watching LAOD today enjoy for me.
    Everything arrives and the 24th finally did.

    I loved the pictures, so much better that the ones they published. I like his look in the third one the one with the coat. Kind of Napoleon. Amazing!
    And his feet look fine to me.....

    I'm not sure but Jake kinda sounded a little congested, so maybe he has a cold?

    I wish someone would ask him if he has any new movie roles he is about to do.

    Loved the Esquire mag shot, we don't get to see Jake's feet enough.

    Happy Thanksgiving, I plan to see LAOD tomorrow!

    Thanks for everything WDW

    LOVE the scissors picture. If he ever decides to grow a Face Pet again (which he probably will ;)) we can make protest posters out of that one. *lol*

    He sounds like he has a cold but I'm glad he felt healthy enough to be on the show. Thanks for the vid WDW! My heart melted when he mentioned the Care Bears - one of my favorite cartoons when I was a child. :)

    On People: "It's hard 'cause I'm getting older, you know." Jake, you're talking nonsense my man! You know very well how it works with beautiful men; they age like fine wine. You'll just get better!

    Hi Eureka - I love the coat and the attitude that goes with it :D The day will indeed come when the film arrives in each of our countries - hard to be patient though!

    Wow, MK! Double Jake! That's fabulous :D

    I love that picture, Monica :)

    What's cuter than a dog and a kitten? A dog with Jake!

    Just watched LAOD here!!!! Omg. He's too hot and too handsome for words. You know I kinda knew about this from visiting this site, but still I wasn't prepared for the Jake gorgeousness on screen. Great emotional romcom as well. It's one of the rare intelligent drama comedy. A thumb up for Anne too, she made me cried.

    Hope everyone lucky enough to see LAOD today enjoyed it.

    Well my country is officially bankrupt today and we've had the unveiling of harsh budgetary measures so the mood is one of doom and gloom but as ever Jake manages to pop up and put a smile on my face:) I love that one with the dog and he's looking really hot in the fourth one aswell. What were Esquire thinking not using these ones!!!

    Happy Thanksgiving to all celebrating tomorrow:)

    Hi , winterbird & mk ! I am happy to hear the enjoyment of LAOD, and I will see it tomorrow- have to support Jake G. Can you both tell me or anyone else tell me whether the movie theatre was packed or near capacity filled with people. I am curious , and want this movie to be a profitable hit for Jake ( and Anne). Thank you !

    Hi Jen, I went to an afternoon show in a midtown cinema, the place is half full, more people than I expected for a midweek afternoon showing.

    FOR JAKE

    It’s Such a Beautiful thing to Love so much
    So much to a Star

    Coz you are that Star
    So up above the Sky
    You are that Blossom
    That smiles only in the day
    Never knowing there is a Moon
    Shines throughout the Night
    Shining for a Flower that can never notice the Moon

    It gives an immense Pain
    But Pain is such a beautiful thing

    Pain makes you a Poet
    Pain makes you an Artist
    That you can never be otherwise

    And no matter it will never notice the Moon
    that flower will still bloom under this Blue Sky
    And this Poem will be born for that Beautiful Flower

    Let it be the wish of the Moon,
    That Sun shall always be very bright
    Let there be light always
    So that flower can always smile

    Morning all! Lovely thick frost out there this morning - brrr - snow on the way?

    Hey Winterbird! I knew you'd love it :D So well worth the move to the US!

    Morning Carol - difficult days. I've had a couple of blows over the last 24 hours myself. It's hard to cheer oneself up.

    Hi Jen :)

    Glad to hear you liked it, Tiffany!

    That is a lovely poem, Kaushimk - Jake inspires, he really does.

    Have a good day everyone! Is it Friday yet...?

    Hey all!!

    Saw LAOD last night!! Really loved it....Jake and Anne were beautiful inside and out. I will give a more complete review after T-Day.

    Also, it was great because the theatre was packed and they showed the Source Code trailer too.

    Also saw the Charlie Rose interview. Makes me love Jake and Anne (and Ed) even more.

    A lot to be thankful for today. :)

    Thanks for the new pics, Jake is looking fantastic.

    And thanks for the continued posting of interviews, videos, tweets, etc.

    WDW, can't thank you enough for this great blog and all the work you do to keep it up! And a big thanks to everyone who posts here.

    Have a great Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates!! I hope everyone else has a wonderful day! :)

    Happy Thanksgiving, Get Real! and thank you - I appreciate that :) I'm really glad you liked the film. I must watch the Charlie Rose interview if it's about. I love how they've been showing the Source Code trailer with the film!

    I saw the Charlie Rose interview. I thought it was very good. They really delved into what it took to make this movie. Jake, Anne and Ed really spent a lot of time talking about very intimate things. Like what turns them each on sexually (I would have loved to have heard what Jake said :D)

    They talked about what they have learned over the years of acting. I think LAOD really pushed them to a whole other level of acting.

    I still wish someone would have asked Jake what his next project was going to be.

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone
