Get your low down on what's happening in the world of Hollywood, right here!

Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal, who star in the upcoming comedy Love & Other Drugs, have posed naked for the cover of Entertainment Weekly.

Happy and laughing, Jake has his arms wrapped around Anne for three different covers.

The couple opened up about the making of the film, and how they got over any initial awkwardness with the sex scenes.

Anne admitted she "totally fell apart" the first time she and Jake were expected to take their clothes off.

So to lighten the mood, director Edward Zwick took off his clothes as well and climbed into bed with both actors.

And both Jake and Anne soon found themselves becoming accustomed to the non-stop nudity.

'We were, like, fake having sex and being like, 'Knock the pot off, knock the pot off,'' the Daily Mail quoted Jake as telling Entertainment Weekly.

'I was not focusing on her at all and instead focusing on knocking the ... pot off for Ed [the director],' he said.

'As with all things in life, the second you stop making it about you and you make it about everyone else, it just got, dare I say, fun. There wasn't anything to be nervous about. It was another scene,' Anne said.

'The lack of clothing meant that there wasn't a lot of padding, so I was constantly bruised,' she added.

Angelina Jolie talks to actor Goran Jetvic during the filming of her yet untitled directorial debut in Esztergom (60 km north of Budapest) November 12.

Angelina Jolie has cut short the shooting of her first movie in Bosnia, her producer said, after rumors that it portrayed a relationship between a rapist and his victim sparked protests from women assaulted during the Bosnian War.

 

Jolie had originally planned to shoot scenes for her movie for about ten days in Bosnia, but now her crew will film the scenes in just three or four days, said Edin Sarkic, Jolie's Bosnian producer.

 

Jolie herself will only briefly visit the set, he said.

 

The change of plans came after rumors surrounding the movie's storyline angered an association of women raped during the war in Bosnia who heard the film was about a rape victim falling in love with her rapist. They pressured city officials to withdraw Jolie's filming permit in October.
