USA Weekend reports: It was a rainy and cold Valentine’s week here on the East Coast but we were already thinking summer movies. In fact, we’ve already done a fun photo shoot with three of the big-name actresses you’ll see in the sure-to-be blockbuster summer fare: Gwyneth Paltrow (Iron Man), Maggie Gyllenhaal (Batman: The Dark Knight) and Liv Tyler (The Incredible Hulk). These three talented women and young mothers gathered in New York and our deputy photo editor Sarah Claxton was there to make sure the day went smoothly. That’s not as easy as it sounds, considering there’s a walk-in closet full of designer clothes, a stylist, photographer assistants, hair and makeup people, catering and…well, you get the picture.

The Brooklyn Paper posted this on there site about Maggie - click over there to see photos of her on the day!

We asked her to hit us with her best shot — and, boy, did she ever.
“This is terrible!” said movie star Maggie Gyllenhaal last week when a Brooklyn Paper reporter handed her a copy of a highly controversial front page our newpaper.
The Paper spawned a hullabaloo last year when it ran a racy photo from the 2002 film, “Secretary,” that featured a naked Gyllenhaal covered only slightly with a delicately placed fur shawl. The accompanying story was about Gyllenhaal and fiancé Peter Sarsgaard buying a townhouse in Park Slope. It ran with the headline “Hello Neighbor!”
The story generated weeks’ worth of antagonistic letters to the editor, but never a response from the starlet herself — until this week, when The Brooklyn Paper caught up with her at a public school fundraising event.
“I hate that photo,” Gyllenhaal exclaimed when we presented her with a copy of the issue. “This is terrible!” [The photo had been supplied by the movie company.]
Then Gyllenhaal went back to serving lemonade and cookies at the charity event in Cobble Hill.
Before ending the interview, Gyllenhaal told The Paper that she is loving life in Park Slope now that she and Sarsgaard have finally moved in to the Sterling Place brownstone they bought last year.
“We’re crazy about Park Slope,” Gyllenhaal said. “But we’re new to the neighborhood, so we’re still figuring everything out.” Read the rest of this entry »
I was browsing YouTube and found this rare Maggie treat! A clip of Maggie in 2003 promoting ‘Secretary’ on Craig Ferguson(?) - enjoy the very candid Maggie!
Elle UK reports that hot on the heels of Kate Moss’ starring role in last year’s sensational Agent Provocateur campaign (yes the one of Kate in four steamy Mike Figgis films which crashed the AP website!) Today Maggie Gyllenhaal is revealed as the new star of Agent Provocateur’s ‘The Adventures of Miss A.P’ - the lingerie label’s sexy new ad campaign. It’s a series of four stories that will be released throughout the coming year, and each episode will star a different Miss A.P. At the end of the year all four will be available to collect in a glossy box set. First up is Maggie, and her ‘book’ (as A.P explained to us) is entitled ‘Lessons in Lingerie’. It’s a cheeky-sexy collection of images of Maggie’s adventures in Agent Provocateur ’s latest designs, shot by photographer Alice Hawkins. You’ll see the new images nationwide from today or you can collect them for free from A.P stores or at www.agentprovocateur.com now.
