The Love and Other Drugs Sydney premiere - Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway in video, words and pictures

The days when Jake Gyllenhaal takes to a red carpet are glorious, especially when it takes place in a country not used to seeing Jake in the flesh (and in a rather lovely suit). Today (or last night), Sydney went wild for Jake and Anne Hathaway as Love and Other Drugs took over George Street's cinema. You can read details here. I'd like to point out that there is a cinema in George Street, Oxford, which is entirely premiere suitable. It even has restaurants next to it.





We've had more details of Jake and Anne's time in Sydney so far and it sounds as if the friends Jake bumped into were none other than Bono and The Edge.


You can see a video from the premiere here. And more here.



You can see a brief video of the press conference here and a lengthy video here. It included a nifty spot of repartee: '"I think it is easier to work with somebody that you find attractive," said Gyllenhaal... "It's always easier to work with things that are naturally occurring." Hathaway also admitted it was not hard to get naked with the 29-year-old actor, who she previously starred with in Brokeback Mountain. "I actually think that 65 to 75 percent of all my nude scenes have been with you," she said. "And you are very attractive so I guess I can safely say yes."'


And as the junkets get underway, here is an interview from Sydney.



Many thanks to IHJ for the gorgeous pics - there are many more there.

My review of Megamind is now up at MovieBrit.

Wow, they look like they're really having fun down under - and who wouldn't?! Thanks for the photos and the video links. I'll get to fully enjoy them all later, but it's back to work for right now.

What a day WDW, so much to post :)Thank you.

So much to read, listen and look at.
I saw all the pictures on IHJ, they are so beautiful!
That press conference was incredible. Anne seemed to be a little nervous, but wonderful and beautiful and Jake was absolutely charming, flirting, handsome, gorgeous, funny and so confident and calm. All of it in one man.

And they said again many nice words about each other. That conference was very interesting and joyful. Australia seems to like Anne and Jake very much, I wonder how they will like LAOD.

Still a mystery about London premiere.

Great stuff from Australia! Thanks for all the updates. Jake is charming them all over the world. :)

Thanks WDW, it looks like Jake and Anne are having a great time down under. I wonder how much time they have to sight see.

Jake looks great, like the shaven face and short hair

Hi Susan! I think that is such a beautiful dress. Looks like such a fun LAOD break for them all.

Hi Shelly! No, he ins't :D

My pleasure, Mermon. I think Australia suits them :D And thanks for the link.

Hi there, Get Real!

I like the look too, Sweetpea :)

I hope everyone's had a good evening. I've been watching Inception on DVD - absolutely fantastic!

Jake and Anne are great together. :) Both look great too.

T said...

Loving the posts 2 in one day we're really getting spoilt, think Xmas has come early.
I can't view the videos on my phone but am dying to know what is the most romantic thing Jake has done and is Anne confirmed for glee... Can anyone help?

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Thanks Mermon!

Hi there JF :) They really do.

Hi T! I've not had chance to see everything myself this evening either (it's the fault of watching Inception all evening) so I'm trying to catching up. I'm going to settle down now and watch them :D

I've just written a review of Megamind on MB this evening.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Update T! Jake says that the most romantic thing he's done is that when he was 16 he was in France and he sent his girlfriend a flower in the post every day.

I'm saying nothing...

Wet Dark and Wild said...

^^^ for an entire month...

WOW! What great stuff from Sydney! I haven't even looked, watched or listened to it all yet but the little I've seen is terrific. They both look great and are just so fun to watch and listen to! I have to wonder if Ed Zwick knew just how great his two stars would be together both on and off screen. He's a lucky director (and we are some lucky fans)!

Thanks for all this great stuff WDW...I'll be taking a closer look over the next day or two (and I'm sure there will be more)! Whoowhee!

:-)

I swear if he gets any hotter he may combust or could that be me?? anyway all these great pics are certainly a great way to beat the big freeze.
Roll on London!!!! xx

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Good morning everyone! Blimey, it is seriously cold out there.

Morning BBMISwear :-) Ed really is a lucky director and I hope other directors will snap Jake and Anne up as they are such an incredible pair. And they do this publicity together so well! It's going to take me a while to catch up too. Fortunately I have my first quiet weekend for a while coming up :D

Morning Mermon!

Hi there T :D I know, he's just what we need to raise the temperature. I could also do with Jake around to scrape the ice off my car...

Have a good day everyone!
