Jake Gyllenhaal and Denzel Washington Light Up Broadway in Othello — On and Off Stage
Jake Gyllenhaal, 44, may be peacocking backstage at Othello, but everyone on Broadway knows that costar Denzel Washington, 70, is the star attraction. The Hollywood hunk recently gave fans a peek into his swanky dressing room — complete with mood lighting, designer candles, and a $19,000 chess set — but insiders say Denzel has him in a checkmate.
“Jake’s doing this big media tour like he owns the place,” one source says, “but everyone backstage knows that Denzel got the better dressing room — the bigger suite, better lighting, and the actual star treatment.”
