Gyllenhaal, Jake

What is "Source Code?" It's a thought-provoking thriller involving a bizarre science that allows someone to enter the last eight minutes of a dead person's life. Jake Gyllenhaal stars as a soldier who is inserted into a stranger's body in order to observe what happens immediately before a train is blown up and to figure out who the bomber is. If he accomplishes his task, he could save millions of lives.

Jake Gyllenhaal may not be the first actor you think of when you picture the star of a big-budget action adventure film based on a video game, but with "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" Gyllenhaal's out to prove he can handle intense action scenes as well as more intimate character-driven films.
