Jake Gyllenhaal's Unhinged On-Set Behavior: The Studio and Director Respond
French director Thomas Bidegain claimed to have halted production of the English-language adaptation of his film "Suddenly" due to Jake Gyllenhaal's alleged disruptive behavior on set in Iceland, including demanding wild rewrites, unconventional requests, and performing in a mock French accent. However, reps for Gyllenhaal and StudioCanal refuted the claims, stating that the project was never greenlit and that creative differences are common in film development. Bidegain eventually made a French-language adaptation of the film, which premiered in 2023.
