Jake Gyllenhaal, one of the Sexiest Men alive according to People Magazine (2010)
Jake and costar Anne Hathaway have a lot in common:
Cary Grant and Rita Hayworth in "Only Angels Have Wings" (1939)-"We love Cary Grant and Rita Hayworth. When we're working together, that's what we're trying to go for"
-How much Viagra research did you do?
-Jake Gyllenhaal: The director, Ed Zwick, made me memorize these 50-page PDF files on all of the Pfizer drugs.

"I was not focusing on her at all and instead focusing on knocking the f---ing pot off for Ed [the director]" -Jake Gyllenhaal about sex scenes in "Love and other drugs" (2010)
"Unlike some other films that show skin just for skin's sake, the filmmakers wanted the nudity in "Love and Other Drugs" to be authentic and organic, not gratuitous. Jake summed it up, saying, "And then you have the shot of him getting up and you see his butt. There's always the, like, walk-to-the-shower shot. There's this weird cliche that happens, that's gotten under the skin of audiences. That's not really a good cinematic representation of love."
But wait, does this mean we won't get to see Jake's butt in this movie? (Noooooooo!) Fortunately, Anne clarified just how uninhibited those sultry bits turned out to be. For example: "Jake and I were in this amazing take", she said, "and he turned and caught the sheet and pulled it off me... I just thought, 'Go with it, Hathaway.'"
Anne also deserves credit for taking quite a beating while filming several of the more, er, energetic scenes in the movie, which required the characters to break things, knock things off shelves, and so on—all while getting it on. She quipped, "The lack of clothing meant that there wasn't a lot of padding, so I was constantly bruised."
Meanwhile, lying around naked for hours at a time (with the exception of the moleskins that cover the actors' naughty parts, held on by what Jake said was "the same tape that they used on 'Pirates of the Caribbean' to keep everybody’s wigs on") helped Anne and Jake develop a comfortable, casual friendship that continued even after filming was over. But while their onscreen relationship happened mostly in the bedroom, their real-life one is based elsewhere: in the kitchen."She texts me when she has questions about cooking," Jake said.

Anne Hathaway told interviewer Chelsea Handler: "Real sex was out", Hathaway said, while admitting she and Jake discussed and immediately dismissed that as an option.
Nevertheless, the shoot was a blast for the two who previously worked together in Brokeback Mountain.
"I spent weeks and weeks naked with Jake Gyllenhaal and they paid me!" she laughed. Chelsea's Big Interview Special is on Monday at 10 pm on E! Source: www.radaronline.com
