Reese Witherspoon: Getting Over Divorce was 'Painful Work'
March 4, 2009 at 2:50 pm

Reese Witherspoon speaks out in a new interview about getting over her divorce from Ryan Phillippe and talks about her relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal.

In the interview appearing in the April edition of Elle, Reese says she had to work hard to get past her breakup. "You see a lot of people play this blame game. Blame, blame, blame. You know? And it's a really easy thing to do, and I'm certainly guilty of it. [You have to] look at yourself and go, 'What part of this do I need to own? Which part of this is my responsibility?' And that's the painful work that you have to go through to hopefully get some real life knowledge out of it."

The actress also called the divorce "very humiliating and very isolating." But she adds that "if it's not painful, maybe it wasn't the right decision to marry to begin with." On her current beau Jake, Resse tells Elle: "He's fabulous. He really is a fantastic guy."


The Stars of 'Watchmen' Unmasked
March 4, 2009 at 8:01 am

ET is with Billy Crudup, Matthew Goode, Jackie Earle Haley, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Malin Akerman and Patrick Wilson of the highly anticipated big-screen adaptation of the Alan Moore graphic novel 'Watchmen,' in theaters everywhere Friday, and one thing seemed to be very consistent on their minds: whether or not they were familiar at first with the source material, the actors quickly learned how important 'Watchmen' is to the fans, and they'd better not screw it up!

"You're thrown into the fire with this one," Jeffrey (who plays The Comedian) explains. "You learn rather fast that this is kind of the top of the pyramid of this genre. One Google search and you know that you're doing the 'Citizen Kane' of graphic novels and it's quite a humbling experience figuring that out and then having that pressure going into the film."

"When you're adapting such a great graphic novel, you want to be as faithful as you can," says Patrick, aka Night Owl. "It became our bible; I studied it frequently."
