Jake Gyllenhaal
I think that the idea of boundaries is being challenged everywhere. And I think our fascination with sci-fi is that it is a boundary-less world where we can kind of create the reality that we believe to be as opposed to the reality that is. It is about the beyond and the unknown in a different way than pretty much any type of storytelling is.

At Columbia there's no performing arts department, so I was searching for it everywhere I could, and I took some photography classes and I ended up becoming fascinated with Eastern Religion, and ultimately it seemed to encompass the more abstract mind that I have.
Jake Gyllenhaal
There are standards. I like to be prepared, I guess I should say - that type of pressure of, All right, now you go with abandon, you know. Now when you're in it, you let go of all the things - that's what happens when you're onstage.
