Jake Gyllenhaal Bombed His Lord of the Rings Audition
/ fallontonight
I want to hear more Jake's stories about his auditions
This guy is a bless
"I auditioned for alot of classics I wasn't in"
wthMerhaba 😂😂😂😂
I bet he auditioned for Anakin skywalker lol
But he was in Donnie Darko, the cult classic of cult classics
@@MrMrSanti Nightcrawler was great too. Outstanding performance.
This is me but about Jobs interviews. Lol
Yeah I'm glad they picked Daniel Radcliffe to play Frodo.
ha that was good
😂😂
+Evens Lamarre bahahhahahahha
+Evens Lamarre thats trolling level 3, which some ppl fall for. but they are one of my favorites
+Chrisko1492 well...that's awkward
I would love to watch a show where actors talk about the jobs they didn’t get.
just like people interviewing for normal jobs they didn't get :D
It'll never happen unfortunately. In their industry it's generally frowned upon to talk about the roles that they didn't get or that they turned down.
I just love how open Jake Gyllenhaal is, and how he can laugh at his own expense.
These stories are just great. To think the road to success is through countless failures, and he failed so many auditions. All though the movies he have done are far from failures, I really like how he can talk about past experiences with such ease with a smile on his face.
What a great man.
I think they have to otherwise they wouldn't survive the industry.
*"I auditioned for a lot of classics that I'm not in."*
- Donnie Darko
- Prisoners
- Brokeback Mountain
- Nightcrawler
;)
Zodiac, Demolition, Source Code, Rendition...
Can’t forget Bubble Boy
You guys forgot Enemy.
Jake's teaming up with Denis Villuneuve again.
Well I'm sure you gotta audition A LOT to land roles like that lol
The best part of Jimmys interviews is when he repeats what the guest is saying 1 second after they say it in case you didn't hear them.
Tomanista I think the best thing is when Jimmy's not in frame and is quiet.
Yeah, that is one of his talents.
"I auditioned for a lot of classics that I'm not in" oh poor Jake :D
Is it so hard for Fallon to sit back and let a guest tell a story?
+GhostSpectre Yeah, that's really annoying. He loves the sound of his own voice too much.
GhostSpectre Right, just shut the hell up.
He’s just filling air with his awkwardness and fake laughter. It’s not his fault he’s low on talent..
@@edgarallanpoe8917 Were you watching the same video as me? People were loving Jake. The only dead air was when the crowd audibly cringed every time Fallon interrupted. He caused the awkward silences here; there wasn't even any air to fill until he spoke up and crashed the story mid-telling.
yeah he laughs and high fives all the furniture
Is it weird not to see a ring on Jake's finger? Like, someone should have snatched him up by now, right?!
+Mark Humphreys i tried. i tried.
Hahaha
+Mark Humphreys he thought he was all set with taylor swift but she only dates each guy for 2 months till she has enough info for a song then moves on to the next. also....ive had a girl for 10 years and i would gladly turn for Jake haha
+Rah Actually, he dumped her.
+Mark Humphreys Peter Jackson wasn't interested, and that was pretty much his only shot, really
Gotta say, Jake's humility and sense of humour are really endearing. I can't imagine some actors responding half as well to the question of what auditions they fucked up. Jake's like, "Oh really? Let me give you a list ..."
Exactly!
Between 0:52 and 0:57 they LITTERALLY say this:
"I was litterally like..."
"thank you"
"thanks"
"Yeeaahh uhh whaa?"
"litterally like and so uh"
At 0:55, you can also hear Jimmy say "yeah, I know," but his lips do not move.
violetion WHAT. THATS WHACK
@@violetion he talks so much that even his lips can't catch up with him
@@violetion WHOOAAHHH THERE, HOLD IT UP WTF
You look like elizabeth warren
This man just seems like the type of man who would make conversations fun.
+Elizabeth Medina oh shut up
And fallon the type you want to get rid off
Why Jimmy don't make a "Mean Tweets" just about him?
Probably because will be 3 hours of "I cant stand Jimmy's fake laugh..."
True
Wrong Jimmy.
Wrong show. Wrong jimmy
Isn't that jimmy kimmel? Lol
Hahaha WTF? Wrong Jimmy, sorry! You Americans have too many Jimmies on talk shows but you got me! :P
Jake: "Do you want me to keep going, cause we could be here for hours."
Jimmy: "Haha no"
Me if I was Jimmy: "YAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSS!"
I want to hear more stories
+Foreverinstyle I LOVE the stories!!!
+Foreverinstyle i will make some horrible audition stories aswell
I auditioned for a lot of classics that I'm not in! 😂 Gotta love the attitude!
he's such a DAD
YES BLESS
Fucking hell Jimmy, let people finish a sentence geez
Appropriate title considering the recent events
They most likely had the episode set to upload at a certain time
I hope you aren't serious about a word being used as a joke on a comedy show
+Chris Mercado there are always a few people getting emotional about news on the TV - fighting them won't help them learn to deal with incoming information
What happened
Tommy Ortiz Google it, Brussels terrorist attack.
I like how before you click on the video to see the full title it just says "Jake Gyllenhaal bombed his Lord"
Jake Gyllenhaal seems like such a nice down to earth, sweet person.
He bombed his audition? That ain't nothin, ask the Belgians.
+jake ellis too soon bro
+jake ellis Clickbait m8
+jake ellis Come on
or the Iraqis 'murica bombed, or is it only a white privilege thing ?
+jake ellis who are you, where are you?
Dude am I the only one dying when Jake says "dude where's my car?" With that tone of voice? Lmao
Loved this guy in freaking night crawler !!!!
..........Brother?
+Izuna Uchiha ....love and other drugs?
+Izuna Uchiha my brother how has the afterlife been......
+Allan St. Onge donnie darko?
I actually hate him in that movie.
Jake roles are all mystery thriller, no one beats him in those roles
i don`t care what people say
but
prince of persia was awesome u_u
I'm happy we have Elijah Wood as Frodo, Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter and Tobey Mcguire as Peter Parker/Spiderman. Those characters definitely changed my whole childhood for good. Then came Jake as Jack Twist to change for good my early teen years. Hooray for having this awesome cast choices Hollywood!
I personally love Fallon but he def needs to take some cues on how to be a proper host from Graham Norton.
Kenneth Maese Exactly what I thought.
I like Jimmy, too. I guess I’m surprised to see so many people here who don’t? I find him endearing. He doesn’t mean any harm, you know? I like the guy.
"I auditioned for a lot of classics that I'm not in." *howling*
Anyone else want him to keep going??
+shouldntyoubecooking thats what i was thinking
make a whole late just about that, jilarious anecdotes.
I wish Jake Gyllenhaal was in more movies!! What's wrong with people he is the most attractive and best actor! He deserves a Oscar!
Let's not get carried away.
Prince of Persia comes to mind 🤮
@ابناء آدم a white dude playing a prince of 'persia' yeah they've been white washing movies for years. Doesn't make it any good.
I love that they mention LOTR and Jimmy's like whatever, but when Dude where's my car is bought up, Jimmy gets excited like it's some legendary film.
Jake getting passionately involved in the tellings of his failures is such a Mood.
he's a very charming cute dude
I wanna hear more audition stories from Jake :(!
It didn't happen, because they only casted in the UK. Elijah Wood got cast because he 'casted himself' by sending a tape of him playing Frodo (with English accent) over to the LOTR casting team. So as funny as it is, this story is probably just made up to enjoy the audience :p
sources: Lord Of The Rings Appendices: "the Fellowship of the cast"
"Literally" - Jake Gyllenhaal
0:48 me when anyone asks me who my fav actor is
Skittlessmuggler Ha! I love this.
Lord of the Rings wouldn't be the same with him.
He'd probably be good, but Elijah Wood was the best choice.
thats because Elijah did it. You would have said the same thing about elijah if Jake got it.
+ranerk inasa True
+ranerk inasa exactly
ranerk inasa
I thought about it. In fact i'm sure i wouldn't.
Knowing Jake from movies it be a whole different experience, but it wouldn't be as special as Elijah and Sean made it.
I know a lot people say things like that, and i don't really care about what those 3 others answerd you lol
I checked with me, and i can say, i know i'm happy Elijah did it. It's like no one could play a better Jack than Johnny.
Excuse me, i meant to say Captain Jack Sparrow.
He is one of my favourite actors with leonardo dicaprio.
Love his thriller movies :D
MrAktualisiert Yo me too!
Same opinion 🖒👊
This guy deserves an Oscar, so many amazing movies in line and no Oscars come on Hollywood whats wrong with you.
It's because of his race. That's the reason everyone gets snubbed.
I could listen to a weekly half hour or hour show of actors re-telling failed auditions. It would be hilarious and inspiring at the same time.
Awesome actor
One of the very best.
My favourite
my favorite of all time
It’s a pretty reassuring thing as someone who’s pursuing a career in film that even great actors like Jake have been told by directors that they’re the worst actor they’ve ever seen .
Person: *Blinks*
Jimmy: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH OH MY GOOOOOD!!!!111!!!!!!1
HE'S A GREAT ACTOR and his movies are insane. (Most of them of course)
i would love to see frodo with that accent
Awesome guy. Great actor.
dam that fake laugh is so rude.
+calabunga it would be a lot ruder to not laugh at all..
Its not really rude, they both have heard the jokes a million times, they practice the interview, jokes included like, 50 times before going live
bungaking i think it's the way he laughs not faking it
"Dude, Where's My Car,' a classic!" not one clap, LOL!
Jimmy Fallon = The Most Awkward Man on the Planet
So awkward it becomes annoying.
Fuck Jimmy Fallon
this show only works because of the games
niknatural he's laugh is as fake as a pornstars orgasmmmmmmmmm
Stop wathcing his shows then you fucking idiot
His fake laugh is so cringeworthy, I feel sorry for the guests
+Eden Rasmus its better not to laugh at all lol, he should just stare at them it would be less emberesing
I'd like to hear his story on his audition for Batman Begins. I heard Christopher Nolan had a tough time deciding between Christian Bale and Jake Gyllenhaal.
wow, right
me too
I love when he tells stories. 😂
He bombed his audition so bad that it reached to Belgium
lol
I want to kill myself after reading that
This isn't even funny you shit head
+Chris Cooke im not bothered about the joke but it's just a shit one
too soon dude😕
This interview was funny. I love how at the Dude Where's My Car audition, he was just like "go home man. I GOT this"
I'm so in love with Jake 😍
Thank you love you too 😘
+jake hanson aha!
I kinda wanted him to continue with these failed audition stories, thank you very much hahaha
We have to get Jake on "Ew!"
+Lauren Burberry I like the way you think :)
I love how Jimmy jump from "Lord of the Rings" to "Dude, where is my car?"
"I auditioned for a lot of classics that.. I'm not in." 😂😂
Its so great to see such genuine laughter from a host!!!!
'Yea I auditioned for a lot of classics that I'm not in' 😂😂
"i auditioned for a lot of classics that im not in" hahaha brilliant
Jimmy would be wise to let his guest finish their stories.
Now, he'd make a pretty good Aragorn
He would. But I can't still see how Nic Cage could be considered being Aragorn lol
I'M A RANGER! I'M A RANGER! I'M A RANGER! I'M A RANGER! I'M A RANGER! I'M A RANGER!
but he was too young for it at the time, but i see it
+Amber Jones...Thats why she said "Now"...you thick fuck.
Andrea Diagbouga Though I like jake but can't imagine anyone else as Aragorn except Viggo Mortensen. He literally nailed the character!
Can't look at Jake the same after seeing Nightcrawler 😖
Wait until you see Donnie Darko
+Not “The Dude” wait until you see brokeback mountain
+Javi Nova 🌝
2:42
Dude. Where' *s* my car?
jake is a good actor, he will get his Oscar eventually
Jake has gotta be one of my favorite actors. Amazing talent and is true to his art. Doesn't like the glam of acting. His interviews explain that. True respect. 🙏🏾
i love how crazy his eyes can get hahahaha
0:46 😂😂😂 “they need a hobbit! We thought.....”
“jAKe!!!” ❤️
Hah, very interesting. I wanted him to go on for hours. :)
+Casual Commodore 64 - u gay
+Anonymous Anonymous I am? I did not know that. I don't feel gay, though.. How did you arrive at that conclusion?
Jake Gyllenhaal is probably one of the most underrated actors of our time. He is on a different level.
I keep watching this over and over and over and ooveeeeeeeeeer 😍😂😂 - Jake is literally is the funniest man on earth!
his eye brows are so animated like caterpillars dancing
+Veshlin Pillay Apparently, he's not plucking his eyebrows anymore. lol
It was more embarrassing when Elijah Wood's bombed his audition for Southpaw though...
ARC Music Ha! Indeed.
@@e.erin. Where can I find that??
Am I the only one to think that Jake is actually slimmer than before?
+Alexandra De Backer This is not Jake, this is Lou Bloom. Run, Jimmy, run!
No you're not the only one, you can definitely tell from his face.
i love it
+Alexandra De Backer drugs
I smell a new movie...
I auditioned for a small role in October Sky and tanked it. I was popping with confidence when i arrived, but after sitting in the waiting room for two hours and watching one dejected dude after another come out my nerves were frayed. it didnt help that the line i had to read was super corny. the casting person took me in, we talked a minute, read a bit, then i had to deliver my big line "let it fly, rocket boys, let it fly!" my voice cracked like a teenager, i asked for a glass of water, then tried it again with the same result. the lady was very kind as she escorted me out. thus ended my movie career
I actually like his take on DUDE, WHERE'S MY CAR? I think it might've been funnier than what was there.
Can Jimmy for once just not hijack an interview?
"I auditioned for a lot of classics I wasn't in" sounds like my dating life
When actors has bad audition like this. I wonder how awkward it is the next time when they audition for the same director again.
That's a motivational video, such a great actor being rejected all the time, but he keeps going, failure is a part of life kids.
My wife loves him. I’m starting to see why. Lol
I love that he can laugh at himself. Too many celebrities and actors take themselves far too seriiously.
oh jake gyllenhaal you're so charming and funny, why do you have to be 35 and why do I have to be 18?
+Mollie Green it really is too easy to impress young girls XD
Play the fuckin RIDDLER !!! :D
Jake is so fine and so funny, goddamn it..!!
Lol 1:28 Jimmy didn't think the camera was on him? His ' laugh' was out of sync with the story punchline haha
“you are the worst actor i have ever seen”
*fast forward to now when he’s playing mysterio*
im laughing so hard at the "dude, where's my car?"
Jake Gyllenhaal is so perfect...
I'm fangirling right now
the LOTR one is funny. They wanted this big dramatic scene of him finding the ring. And he's just like "k, here it is" haha
What I don't understand is why people who 'hate' Jimmy Fallon watch his clips. I don't find shows I don't like just to say it sucked. That's just such a jerk move.
I'm watchin the video because of Jake and because I WAS interested in the story, but fucking Jimmy Fallon won't shut the fuck up. What kinda interviewer invites people to his show just to interrupt them in the middle of their story-telling just to fake-laugh? And multiple times???? Really?
Per anecdote, the agent's pitch has a Publishers Clearinghouse advert vibe.
90% of the comments are complaining about Jimmy's laugh. If you dislike him so much, then why bother watching his videos?
"Yeah, I auditioned for a lot of classics that I'm not in" so great hahaha.
I would have preferred his version of Dude Where's My Car.....
Forget about Fallon's fake laugh for a sec, I just want more Jake Gyllenhaal bad auditions!
My God, what a stud
When actors/actresses are not given a proper audition they look ridiculous. You know what my favorite thing is, seeing all of these amazing, talented people, work hard, to portray the role they were asked. The underdogs should never go ignored. Especially if they were being selfless in their roles.
