Jake Gyllenhaal<\/a><\/strong> is dreaming of a day filled with diapers and pacifiers. <\/p>\n

While sitting down with TODAY<\/em>‘s Willie Geist<\/strong> to discuss his Broadway play<\/a> Sea Wall \/ A Life<\/em>, the actor got candid about having a family in the future. “I do hope to be a father one day,” the actor mused.<\/p>\n

Perhaps the baby bug hit while performing onstage.<\/p>\n

“It’s a show about faith and family and the mess and comedy of life,” Gyllenhaal explained in a teaser. “It’s about, really actually about two fathers and about, for my character, someone who is just about to become a father. Also, he goes back into his own relationship with his own father and the passing of his father and how that makes him feel becoming a father.”<\/p>\n

As much as he looks ahead, Gyllenhaal also speaks candidly about the past in his upcoming interview, which will air on Sunday TODAY with Willie Geist<\/em>. Especially when it comes to his 2005 groundbreaking role in Brokeback Mountain<\/a><\/em>. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The Oscar winning film, in which he starred opposite Heath Ledger<\/a><\/strong>, opened doors for him in Hollywood.<\/p>\n

“I was crazy, it was amazing,” the 38-year-old recalled to Geist. “It has defined by career in different ways.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“I see people who have joked with me or criticized me about lines I say in that movie, you know,” he continued. “And that’s the thing I loved about Heath. He never joked. Someone wanted to make joke about the story or whatever and he was like, ‘No. This is about love<\/a>. That’s it man. No.'”<\/p>\n

Though Ledger tragically passed away in 2008<\/a> from an accidental overdose, his memory and legacy live on with Gyllenhaal.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“Friendship can’t be explained in a sound bite or can it in three-minute interview and those who can do it I find sort of odd,” he told E! News in 2018<\/a>. “I think Heath meant a lot to a lot of people, the people who were fans and the people who saw his work and were moved by his work and the people who knew him as a person.<\/p>\n

“He was just an incredible force,” the star added, “And is still missed.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
