built 659 days ago
Witherspoon, 31, and Gyllenhaal, 26, began dating early last year, five months after her split from ex-husband Ryan Phillippe. The two reportedly fell for one another on the set of their movie Rendition. They were first spotted together last March and spent the next several months getting close. In June, Witherspoon reportedly called it quits on the relationship fearing that it was much to soon after her split from Phillippe. By August Witherspoon and Gyllenhaal were reportedly back on and going strong. In October, Witherspoon said of Gyllenhaal, "He’s great!"

For someone who doesn't like changes, Witherspoon's undergone some big ones over the past couple of years, since picking up that Best Actress trophy for her turn as June Carter in the 2005 Johnny Cash biopic, Walk the Line. For starters, there was the divorce from actor Ryan Phillippe, her husband of more than seven years plus a rumored romance with a recent costar, and the inevitable tabloid scrutiny that comes from being hot and single in Hollywood (the new bangs haven't hurt either). More to the point, there's ... been a major career reboot, with a slate of upcoming roles that could solidify Witherspoon, 31, as the most bankable actress in Hollywood. This October, for instance, she'll star in Rendition, a sober political drama about a pregnant Midwestern woman who discovers that her Egyptian husband (Omar Metwally) is being secretly held by the U.S. government.

In 1999, Witherspoon's career continued as she starred as "Lissa" in the drama thriller Best Laid Plans. Meanwhile, she ... portrayed "Annette Hargrove" in Cruel Intentions, where she acted alongside her future husband Ryan Phillippe and Sarah Michelle Gellar. Also in 1999, Witherspoon portrayed Tracy Flick in Election, her first starring show.[5] Although the film received good reviews (and her performance earned her a Golden Globe and an Independent Spirit Award nominations[19]) Witherspoon noted in an interview that she struggled to find work after completing the film. When analyzing the reasons behind her difficulty to find work, Witherspoon commented: "I think because the character I played was so extreme and sort of shrewish - people thought that was who I was, rather than me going in and creating a part. I would audition for things, and I'd always be the second choice - studios never wanted to hire me, and I wasn't losing the parts to big box-office actresses but to ones who I guess people felt differently about."[20] Her highly praised performance received a ranking in 2006, at #45 on the list of 100 Greatest Film Performances of All Time by Premiere Magazine.[21]
