Jake Gyllenhaal is clearly a gadget junkie. A confessed Mac fan who has an iPad but regretfully doesn’t yet have his hands on the iPad 2, the movie star is here in the Texas capital this week to promote his new film, “Source Code.”
In the film, Gyllenhaal plays decorated soldier Captain Colter Stevens, who “wakes up in the body of an unknown man [and] discovers he’s part of a mission to find the bomber of a Chicago commuter train,” according to promotional materials for the film. “In an assignment unlike any he’s ever known, he learns he’s part of a government experiment called the ‘Source Code,’ a program that enables him to cross over into another man’s identity in the last eight minutes of his life. With a second, much larger attack threatening to kill millions in downtown Chicago, Colter relives the incident over and over again, gathering clues each time, until he can solve the mystery of who is behind the bombs and prevent the next attack.”
