"Yeah, that's sounds about right." And yes Woody, Maggie DOES have a daughter.

I love how the link used the oldest looking picture of Maggie Gyllenhaal. Actually upon googling she's actually aging pretty fast.

I don't see the problem. The female character in the story was supposed to be 22 years old. She's 37, she's not passing as a 22 year old. Of course they leave that little tidbit out of the story.

Yeah, on it's own it sounds ridiculous...
but the bit about it being because the character she auditioned for being 22... yeah I can see it.

Yeah, there is a weird double standard when it comes to actor age and casting, but this isn't that egregious an example IMO.

I would be interested to know the context of the age of the character.
Was being 22 important to the character (like was it supposed to highlight the age difference between the two characters? Was she supposed to be a naive, young girl?) or was it just "make the character 22, because we want a young, hot actress to pull a certain demographic" type decision.

Where did they confirm which film she was talking about? Looked at a few articles and it's just speculation about what the film might have been rather than anything concrete. (That's putting aside the fact that there is a worrying trend of female love interests being much younger, while male love interests skew older and older.)

What is the story? I've seen the 22 thrown about, but am not seeing anything saying the name of the project.

Totally unrelated, but I saw Jake Gyllenhaal (34) go on a date with Rene Russo (61) in his last movie.

Even more unrelated, saw the trailer for Gyllenhaal's movie Southpaw when I saw Ex Machina. That looks like a good time.

She was also told she was too old to play Jerry Lawler's girlfriend in The King's upcoming biopic. But then again, so was Haliee Steinfeld.

Maybe it's because she's ugly as hell?
