You can say this about Jake Gyllenhaal: there’s little chance he’ll ever be typecast. Thanks to his deliberate choice to vary his roles as much as possible, Gyllenhaal continues to be one of the most unpredictable actors working today. He’s done big budget blockbusters (Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time) and smaller, contemplative indie films (Proof, Moonlight Mile). With each film, Gyllenhaal seems to pick roles in which he can challenge himself as an actor, rarely playing the same type of character more than once.

This weekend Gyllenhaal will continue to surprise audiences with a grit...

Actor Mark Ruffalo has been placed on a terror advisory list by U.S. officials after organizing screenings for a new documentary about natural gas drilling.

The Zodiac actor arranged showings for GasLand earlier this year and voiced his concerns about the affects the practice is having on America's water supplies.

However, his efforts to raise awareness and demand a stop to natural gas drilling reportedly attracted the attention of officials from Pennsylvania's Office of Homeland Security - and he recently discovered it had landed him on a terror alert watch list.

Nevertheless, Ruffal...

After struggling for prominence in Hollywood for over 20 years, Robert Downey Jr. is arguably the biggest movie star in the world right now. According to Box Office Mojo, “Iron Man 2,” the sequel to the movie which finally made Downey a household name, has grossed over $300 million domestically and has become one of only a few successful comic book adaptation franchises. Downey is also set to re-team with director Guy Ritchie for a sequel to “Sherlock Holmes” which had an impressive box office performance late last year and won Downey both critical praise and accolades. As if that wasn’t en...

I know what your thinking. When ranking the top movie cops of all time did we rank six cops or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is Starpulse, the most powerful website in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

Actor Robert Downey Jr. has stunned Hollywood with a wild accusation - every movie's leading man "goes to bed" with his female co-star.

The Zodiac star openly admits he's indulged his sexual desires on movie sets in the past, and insists such intimate activity between co-stars is inevitable - because they spend so much together in such a close environment.

He says, "I remember certain colleagues having a lot of fun on the set with me. Every second star goers to bed with his co-star because they spend so much time together. But I'm not going to start reeling off the names."

Chloe Sevigny was so worried that she would be axed from thriller movie Zodiac that she nearly refused her role.
