Love and Other Drugs with Jake Gyllenhaal

Hey, Hollywood of the East celebrity stalkers… Love and Other Drugs finally has a trailer!

Check out the coffee shop 48 seconds into the trailer. That’s Buena Vista Coffee! Located at 1501 Buena Vista Street in the North Side. Unlike The Next Three Days trailer which was also recently released, there aren’t many Pittsburgh scenes in this clip – the city skyline (0:27 seconds) isn’t even the Burgh. There weren’t any shots of Jake’s Steelers tattoo in all the shirtless scenes, but we’re sure he has the team in his heart. And how about that Anne Hathaway smile! Some of the whitest teeth you’ll ever see.

We knew he had become a Steelers fan, and even went to a couple of the games – but we didn’t know about his new Yinzer Stamp (aka Steelers tattoo)!

Jake was on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night talking about his 3 months in the ‘Burgh and his new love for Primanti Brothers and the Steelers. Watch the videos on the TVs ahead…

Jake Gyllenhaal Done Filming on Baum Blvd

Before and after the excitement

Jake Gyllenhaal and friends have finished filming on Baum Blvd and took their fancy electronics store with them! The next time you’ll be able to see “Northside Electronics” will be on the silver screen. Check out the side-by-side pics of what the film set looked like before filming and after. They really clean up well when they go! Hopefully it all goes to Construction Junction for recycling. We did spot some Haddad’s trucks there the other day but we can’t confirm what they were doing.

Stay tuned for more details about where Jake Gyllenhaal, Russell Crowe, and Denzel Washington will be filming next… or better yet, subscribe to the BPGH RSS Feed here.

By now everyone knows that Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway are in Pittsburgh shooting a film called Love and Other Drugs. After all the preparation for the electronics store set, filming is finally underway at the old Don Allen dealership on Baum and Liberty in Shadyside. Jake Gyllenhaal, who has been exploring Pittsburgh as much as possible during his job here, was seen running in and out of the building for a scene which obviously involved running in and out of the building.

Still no shots of Anne Hathaway, but boy does Jake Gyllenhaal have some good energy. You should have seen him running around! Click continue for more photos…

Ok fans, stalkers, and paparazzi… we found out where Jake Gyllenhaal (and Anne Hathaway?) will be next! Haddad trucks were spotted earlier hanging around the old Don Allen GM dealership at the intersection of Baum Blvd/Liberty Ave/S. Atlantic. They were transporting equipment and supplies for Love and Other Drugs. Mad props to the set design team (no pun intended)! They really transformed this place from a gutted old car dealership to an electronics store. Click ahead for more pics!

Can you guess the location from the clues in the picture?
