Jake looked like he found the answer to life when Conan pronounced his last name correctly in the beginning.

Saoirse Ronan: That’s cute.

I fucking lost it when Conan pronounced his last name correctly the way he did, and then interrupting Jake and doing it again

[BlakkLining]

[exotwerps]

I thought this interview was in 2019 and I was wondering where is Tom Holland. Damn, never gonna age this man.

[SlowSlowSloth]

It's amazing how many in the comments don't understand jokes.

The voice they're doing is just a stereotype, they know swedes sound nothing like that.

[XGoldenPhoenixX]

I'm swedish and I'm actually pretty sure that even Jake can't pronounce his name correctly XD

[stevethepaidintern]

Me: Knock knock,
Person: Who is there?
Me: The interrupting Jake
Person: Interrupting Ja-
Me:

[trentdumon]

All I can think about is him in Nightcrawler as a psychopath.

[awkwarditaliangirl]

YouTube commenters 2005- 2015: "Your rong. Trust mee, I kno evrithing."

[thil]

So it's - YEELAN-HELLO? weird. Why is there a G if it's not pronounced, that's a waste of letters... Children in Africa could have used that G.

He comes from a long line of Swedish nobles. The first Gyllenhaal was actually named Gunnesson but got called Haal when he became a knight (aprox. 1620). When he got ennobled in 1652 he received the name Gyllenhaal. They added the name Gyllen, I’m guessing it’s because in Swedish it means golden. If i remember correctly it was Jakes great great grandpa that first left sweden in 1860. The Gyllenhaal name is as far as I know dying in sweden, the ones that i can find are all old.
