Brother's love

How lovable are Jake and Yahya together😊

Yahya: There's love between two of them, as brothers. To me this story is a love story. I like to say that every good story is a love story.
Jake: They both found a lot of comfort with each other, they were very close. Danny is desperate to his brother's love and that connection.


Jake Gyllenhaal and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II play two brothers with a rocky relationship in the new movie Ambulance, directed by Michael Bay. They love each other but the two have taken very different paths. Danny is a criminal leader with few scruples, while his brother, an ex-military man, wants to live in peace with his family.
“The first time we met in person was at Michael’s house, the three of us together, to talk about some things and the week that was coming up, and I loved Yahya. He is a very kind person with a heart, very humble, considerate… He came to the scenes without too much intensity as an actor but with enough for a film like this. He felt like we always looked out for each other, even in the car fight scene. There wasn’t a lot of ‘acting work’, we just had a good time“ says Gyllenhaal.

Extended parts from various interviews that show their wonderful relationship.


Abdul-Mateen II: You can look someone in the eye and say, 'Okay, I like this person. I think we're on the same page and let's just go.' We're laughing and [we] sang. We taking care of one another.

Gyllenhaal: Both of us coming back and forth at each other with our own questions we've had, and trying to make an argument and being open to each other, because we knew we could trust each other. I knew if he was ever going to do anything that would hurt me, and vice versa, but we knew we were gonna have fun. That comfort was always there between the two of us.

Abdul-Mateen II: There's a silent dialogue happening between us at all times.

Jake Gyllenhaal: I was grateful that when I met Yahya he was so kind and open-hearted. He made it so easy to love each other as siblings, as brothers. He’s a very smart actor.  He’s constantly asking the right questions, not the annoying ones. And because of that he drew me closer to him. I knew that he was going to be protecting his side of the bargain in a scene. That just started from the very beginning. I think we just had real respect for each other as performers, and our friendship…
Jake Gyllenhaal: Yahya is adorable. He's an actor who is curious and asks questions in the same way that I do because we're always looking for something deeper. And that was fun because it's possible in a movie like this not to ask those questions; but we both knew that the deeper we went together, the more interesting the film would be. Plus, he has a wonderful energy about him because he's very positive and frankly, that's what matters most today. I love working with Yahya."

About beauty of each other.
Jake: And because Yahya is so handsome, I couldn't stop filming him or looking at the screen. I was mesmerised by his beauty.

Yahya (when he first met Jake): "and there was like, a beautiful view in the background and there you are... Jake Gyllenhaal. I'm meeting you for the first time. And he turned around and the light was perfect, his eyes were piercing - I'm like wow this is great, this is gonna be dope..."

Jake Gyllenhaal about his character: "Danny Sharp is a complex human being. He was very close to his adopted brother, Will, and I think they both found a lot of comfort with each other in this family that had so much chaos. Then, in the years leading up to Will's departure, they grew apart.
And I think, in many ways, Danny is desperate to regain his brother's love and that connection."

P. S. They love to sing, so maybe this is the karaoke room?
Or is it a cinema where they watch a movie together? I haven't decided.
