Hollywood actor Chris Pine revealed that to play Jack Ryan in Star Trek, he gathered advice from actor Alec Baldwin. For those unaware, initially, Pine, 33, was hesitant about signing Tom Clancy’s famous spy hero in the Jack Ryan franchise reboot.So he went to Baldwin for advice, as the latter starred in the first movie, The Hunt for Red October. "Alec and I were doing voice-overs for an animated film and sometimes we`d meet as one of us was reading or coming in. I saw him one time and I was like a kid, I was like, `Hey, I`m playing Jack Ryan, do you have any advice`?" Pine said."He just grabbed me by the shoulder and said, `Do it. Do it. And don`t let go`. Because he obviously, famously, left to do A Streetcar Named Desire on Broadway," he added. Pine worked really hard for the film, and didn’t come up with simple approach. "I would have been happy making Marathon Man or The French Connection. I would have done a long, slow action-free film and been very, very happy. That`s my personal leaning, but it is 2013 and you`d get a geriatric audience if you didn`t have some kind of fight stuff in there," Pine said."So between my reticence about making it too much like Bourne and Bond, and the inclinations of the studio to make it just that, I do hope we found some place in the middle," he added.We’re glad to say that you prove your mettle very well!

Singer Taylor Swift has dated uncountable celebrities, and all her relationships ended on nasty notes, as she always came up with break-up songs after each of her affair failed to go the distance. However, it seems that it is not really something which bothers the songstress, who last dated One Direction band member Harry Styles, as currently she is very much enjoying being single."It`s a terrifying, liberating, magical adventure: the best things are you don`t have to answer to anyone, and you don`t have to add up time zones," said Swift, 23. In the past, she has dated the likes of John Mayer, Joe Jonas, Jake Gyllenhaal, Taylor Lautner, etc. "I don`t strategize. You can`t say, `I`m never gonna date a high-profile person in the arts!` But whoever I date, famous or not - whether I ever date again! - all chaos will break loose," she told during a chat with a magazine."With fabrication and frantic obsession and who likes who more and how it ended. But right now is easy because I`m single and happy, and it`s very relaxing," she added. However, despite being comfortable as single, she still feels jealous seeing others have great relationships."I feel jealousy, but I've been trying to channel it into mutual admiration and inspiration," she explains.
