August With Anna Kendrick, Sadly Not Robert Pattinson
As summer comes to a close, I am forced to come to terms with the fact that I've had more misses than hits in August. In the fan girl world, you win some, you lose some.
Early in the month, I focused my efforts on the release of "ParaNorman" in hopes of a run-in with one of my favorite actresses, Anna Kendrick. I got the chance to meet Anna for the fifth time at her appearance on "Good Day New York" during her short stay in New York. As always, she was a doll.
The misses came back to back in the form of hot leading men. It started with Robert Pattinson, who was in New York for an entire week on a whirlwind press tour for "Cosmopolis." I put in two days of work trying to meet him, but to no avail. Next up was Jake Gyllenhaal, who is currently doing previews of his American stage debut, "If There Is I Haven't Found It Yet" off Broadway. Jake was a guest on "The Late Show With David Letterman" but, again, it was a bust. Get More »

Jake Gyllenhaal will soon be starting with the man in the mirror — or, rather, the man on the TV screen.
The former "Prince of Persia" will be reporting for double duty as he's in talks to take on two roles in the new thriller, "An Enemy," according to Variety.
"An Enemy," which is based on Jose Saramago's novel, "The Double," follows a history teacher who rents a DVD and discovers that one of the minor characters is his exact double, at least from five years prior. The teacher tracks down his double and subsequently turns both their lives upside down. Get More »

He's battled bombs in Baghdad and bank tellers in Boston, but is he ready for Detroit?
Indie Wire reports that the "Hurt Locker" star is in talks to take on the lead role in "The Book of Eli" director Albert Hughes' upcoming "Motor City."
Hughes, who's directing the flick under his own name and not his usual Hughes Brothers team, has been trying to get the movie made for quite some time now, but has had some bad luck getting his stars to stay. Actors including Jake Gyllenhaal, Chris Evans, and Dominic Cooper have previously been cast in the role, but have all dropped out for one reason or another. Get More »

YouTube
Jake Gyllenhaal has played heroes ("Prince of Persia"), soldiers ("Jarhead"), cowboys ("Brokeback Mountain") and romantics ("Love and Other Drugs"), but no matter what role he takes on, one thing remains the same: He's just a little bit off-kilter.
You know what we mean; he's got a little bit of those crazy eyes, right?
Which makes his new role as a music video serial killer strangely believable. Get More »

GALLERY: The CIA's 15 Sexiest Spies (in Movies)
Is there anything sexier than a spy? We shouldn't dig a person who lies for a living as much as we do, but we just can't help it. It's the specialized skills, the crisp wardrobes, the high IQs and the ability to blend in, adapt and fight at a moment's notice. Oh, and there's the whole master/mistress of seduction thing. No one seems to be able to show a girl (or guy!) a good time like a secret agent!
Naturally, we're jealous of Reese Witherspoon's spy-on-spy action in "This Means War." Not only is she juggling Chris Pine and Tom Hardy (when we'd be happy with just one of them), but they're both badass CIA operatives, which guarantees every date is more exciting than if either were accountants.
To console ourselves, we've put together a gallery of 15 of the CIA's sexiest spooks. We don't care if they would have to kill us afterward – we'd happily go undercover with any one of them.
