It’s sourdough bread and pine trees for Jake Gyllenhaal and Jamie Lee Curtis.

The two stars talk about their time together during the Covid-19 pandemic, telling People that the actor, who is Lee’s godson, and his girlfriend Jeanne Cadieu, lived next door to Curtis. Curtis, who won the Oscar for best supporting actress at the 2023 Academy Awards, is friends with Gyllenhaal’s parents, director Stephen Gyllenhaal and screenwriter Naomi Foner.

“We just met,” Lee said at the premiere of Gyllenhaal’s new thriller, “The Covenant.” “He also lived with me during Covid for almost a year. He and Jeanne lived in the house next door to me. And that was it too. For a minute.”

Lee revealed that Gyllenhaal, like many people, took up baking bread during that time, acting, singing and doing handstands for the small group.

“He made a lot of sourdough bread, a lot,” Lee said. “So he sings, he acts, he’s sourdough. And he did that test where you do a handstand against the wall, take off your shirt, and put it back on.”

Gyllenhaal added that the baked bread has gotten stuck.

“I’m still eating sourdough,” he said. “Yes. I haven’t stopped. Although we have already overcome the pandemic, I continue making sourdough.”

Gyllenhaal’s new film is a military thriller directed by Guy Ritchie. It also stars Alexander Ludwig, Antony Starr, Bobby Schofield and Jonny Lee Miller.
