Jake Gyllenhaal can

Hollywood’s hottest heart-throb Jake Gyllenhaal is finding it hard to believe he is considered a leading man on the silver screen. The spunky actor, who has starred in ‘The Prince of Persia’ and ‘Love and other Drugs’, says he isn’t trying to be the lead in every film he signs up for. “I don’t see myself like a leading man at all. That’s very result-oriented. I’ve been like that at different times in my career, but at this point I’m not. I’ve been the lead in lots of different movies but it’s never been about that,” he says. Jake also admits he feels strange being considered in the same league as A-list movie stars with long-established careers. “It’s funny, I was at some event for ‘Prince of Persia’ and Tom Cruise and Nicolas Cage were there. And there I was standing with them thinking ‘What the hell am I doing here?'”
