Source Code - new cast and new pictures. Barry Norman on Jake Gyllenhaal's career and more Japanese news on Source Code

We have some more End of Watch news today in the shape of another couple of actors signed on to feature alongside Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena (and America Ferrera and Anna Kendrick). We also have some new photos from the set taken on 1 August. I may be completely mistaken (as it's well known that I am unable to recognise my own face in a photograph), that the woman in uniform on the left of this set photo is one of the new names signer onners, Cody Horn. If it isn't, which it may well not be, then we are told that she will be wearing a police uniform. A lot of uniforms in this film... [Updated to add I've just been told that's Lola Martinez. I am right in one thing - she's wearing a uniform. So I was 90% there...}


She can also be seen in photos taken a couple of days later:


The other new member of the End of Watch squadron is Frank Grillo who, apparently, has a 'key supporting role'. I am not aware that he's in any of the new photos. Talking of which...






Looks like the uniform isn't entirely comfortable.


It's always important to make time for a GyllenHug - one of the first rules of working with Jake.


Many thanks to IHJ for these new photos.

Source Code

With the UK DVD and blu ray release of Source Code imminent (16 August), the subscribers only edition of Radio Times Extra has a page on Jake Gyllenhaal written by arguably Britain's greatest film critic, Barry Norman. In 'Variety's the spice of life' Barry argues that Jake refuses to be typecast - and also mentions his 'vitally important following of female fans'. One should not overlook all the male fans though. Joined together we make quite a bunch! Here's the article and I've left on the Doctor Who special offers...


Following on from the Japanese poster for Mission: 8 Minutes (Source Code) we can also take a look at the Japanese torashi (or mini poster), thanks to Rintaro Watanabe. Rintaro will be reporting on the release for ManMadeMovies so when that happens I'll let you know. Here is also the official Japanese site for Mission: 8 Minutes.


Update

Updated to add a couple of new pictures from Just Jared of Jake leaving The Medical Center yesterday (Friday 5 August). Seems strange to seem him out of uniform. With legs. And feet.

In one of these photos, I think I saw an actor who worked with Jake in BBM. Very similar.

Monica said...

His name is not in the movie page on imdb, so I'm not sure.
He is a good actor.

I like these photos.
Jake seems to be having great fun.

Hi Monica! Which actor is that? I like the photos too. Looks like they're finding ways to have a laugh in between takes.

Monica said...

David Harbour. He was Randall Malone in BBM.

You can see him here: IHJ

Cody Horn is a ginger blonde, that's Natalie Martinez in the posted photos.

Thanks Monica! I'll keep my eyes open :)

Thanks Anon - See, I told you I couldn't recognise myself in pics...

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Similar chin, though... ;)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Looking at that IHJ pic, Monica, it does look a lot like him, but it's so difficult to be sure.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Just updated the post with some new pics of Jake (with legs) at the Medical center yesterday :)

Good post, Kate, so many staff here. Funny pictures from movie set. That guy, Monica pointed out, really looks like David Harbour, though on IMBd is nothing about his part in EoW.
Nice article about Jake's career. Looking from the distance, Jake's characters in his movies are really very different, though three of them travelled in time. And finally Jake taking care of his health in Medical Centre, so we could sleep in peace that he's OK.
Thank you, Kate.

My pleasure, Mermon!

I saw Ironclad this evening - very nice to see Kate Mara from Brokeback Mountain in such a prominent role :)

Morning everyone! Have a good Sunday :)
