Jake Gyllenhaal’s dreams of becoming a father have come true as the actor portrays a father in a new ad for the fragrance: Eternity Calvin Klein.
The 36-year-old made headlines last month after an interview with People Magazine in which he opened up about spending time with his nieces and his hopes to one day become a father.

Family: Jake Gyllenhaal is featured in a new Calvin Klein ad in which he portrays a father
In the campaign, Jake is pictured with Ethiopian model Liya Kebede and cute four-year-old actress Leila who he gazes attentively down upon, according to W Magazine.
Jake who has been linked to an array of actresses from Taylor Swift to Kirsten Dunst said that he wants to become more of an adult and hopefully do that with a family of his own one day.
‘My sister has raised two beautiful daughters. They are the most amazing girls,’ he told the magazine.
‘It’s fun to send them home with a lot of candy, because it was almost like, “Enjoy it, Mags!” A little payback for being the sister who made me perform weird shows at our parents’ dinner parties.’
More to come: There is also a TV ad for the fragrance coming soon
The cool uncle: Jake said that he loves sending his nieces back with candy as payback for the times his sister made him perform weird shows as a child
Spending time with his nieces: Jake said that spending time with his sister’s daughters has made him enthusiastic about fatherhood
This is the first photo for the campaign but don’t worry, Jake (and his pretend family) will soon be gracing television screens as he will be featured on a TV advertisement for the fragrance.
Unfortunately, fans of the actor may have to wait a bit longer to see him in a pair of Calvin Klein underwear as he is only doing the campaign for the fragrance division of the brand.
Ironically enough, the scent focuses on ‘longstanding ideas of romance, love, intimacy and commitment,’ according to W which Jake one day wants to see in his future if his interview was any indication of his feelings toward fatherhood.
Along with Calvin Klein ads, Jake can also be found in his new movie, Stronger, released late last month in which he plays Jeff Bauman, a man who loses both of his legs when two bombs explode during the Boston Marathon.
