Anne Hathaway recently shared her distress over the intimate scenes with co-star Jake Gyllenhaal in their upcoming movie ‘Love and Other Drugs’, confessing that it left her emotionally shattered.
In an interview with Vogue magazine, the 27-year-old actress described the film as daring and challenging.
