Jake Gyllenhaal has spoken out about how much he misses his Brokeback Mountain co-star Heath Ledger.
The actor revealed this week that Heath’s death changed the way he looks at life.
Jake spoke out about Heath Ledger.
He told the Daily Mirror: “I miss him very badly. Not having Heath around is very sad because I miss his expression and miss the conversations that we had over the years.
“Knowing that life is fragile makes you want to appreciate meaningful things and stop wasting time on things that are trivial and superficial. It made me want to be more present in everyday life and be as much in the moment as I can be.”
The two starred in Brokeback Mountain together.
Jake added: “It’s made me see life as being much more precious than I was ever consciously aware of before and that has made a big difference with me.
“I try to make my relationships with people as serious and real as I possibly can because those are the moments that truly inform your life and your being.”
