Do you tell someone when they have food in their teeth? What about if they could use a breath mint? Do you correct someone when they mispronounce a word in a live video? If you're Jake Gyllenhaal, the answer to the last question is "um, duh." On Monday, the Velvet Buzzsaw [9] actor sat down for an interview with The Hollywood Reporter alongside his costars and director Dan Gilroy. When discussing the upcoming Netflix thriller [10], Dan opened up about Jake's costar Rene Russo [11] and how "there's many sides to Rene that haven't been shown on film, and I want the world to see them."
"Soulful, spiritual, she has a touch of melancholy once in a while," Dan said, pronouncing the word mehlonkley. Jake reacted hilariously and wasted no time before correcting him. That Jake Gyllenhaal is beauty and brains [12], and he isn't afraid to remind you! Watch the hilarious clip above, and make sure to perfect your pronunciation of "melancholy" if you ever plan on meeting Jake.
