Jake Gyllenhaal Looks Scary After Losing Weight For Movie
Quote:
Jake Gyllenhaal shocked onlookers with his gaunt appearance at the 17th Annual Hollywood Film Awards on Monday (October 22nd, 2013) night.
And while the 20lb weight loss was for his role as a freelance crime reporter who stumbles upon the dangerous underworld of Los Angeles in Nightcrawler, his new look is still alarming.
Gyllenhaal’s razor sharp cheekbones now protrude noticeably and the star insists he wanted his character Lou to be ‘literally and figuratively hungry’.
Yes, he is doing a 'Machinist' by getting into the shape, weight and size that is required to play the character....
And no, I'm pretty sure he isn't ill and / or dying from some unknown illness
