Jake Gyllenhaal & Reese Witherspoon Play Coy at Rendition Premiere

The on-again-off-again item showed up separately at the NYC premiere of their new flick, Rendition, and avoided even making eye contact with each other on the red carpet. After the screening, Jake and Reese went to their respective corners and chatted with their own peeps.

“At the after party they were both doing their own thing,” a spy told Us Weekly. “They had friends with them and just hung out with them.”

There was one awkward moment, though. “They didn’t even talk to each other at the post-reception except when a photographer pulled them together for a picture with the director—and he was standing in between them,” said another onlooker.

So is there that much bad blood between Reese and Jake, or are they just trying to fool us? “You know how actors are who are in projects together -- they always go up to each other and say, ‘It’s so good to see you!’ For actors to not talk to each other, they have to either hate each other -- which they don’t -- or they’re hiding something.”
