Jake Gyllenhaal is set to return to the big screen later this year with Nightcrawler, and it is set to be another riveting performance from the Oscar nominated actor.

Last year we saw that Gyllenhaal has lost an awful amount of weight, and it was for this movie that he underwent such a radical physical transformation.

The first teaser trailer for the film has been arrived, and it is looks set to be a creepy role for Gyllenhaal:

Nightcrawler sees Dan Gilroy on writing and directing duties as he makes his feature film directorial debut with this project.

Gyllenhaal takes on the central role of Lou Bloom in the film, while Bill Paxton, Rene Russo, and Ann Cusack are some of the other names on board the film.

Nightcrawler is a pulse-pounding thriller set in the nocturnal underbelly of contemporary Los Angeles. Jake Gyllenhaal stars as Lou Bloom, a driven young man desperate for work who discovers the high-speed world of L.A. crime journalism.

Finding a group of freelance camera crews who film crashes, fires, murder and other mayhem, Lou muscles into the cut-throat, dangerous realm of nightcrawling - where each police siren wail equals a possible windfall and victims are converted into dollars and cents.

Aided by Rene Russo as Nina, a veteran of the blood-sport that is local TV news, Lou thrives. In the breakneck, ceaseless search for footage, he becomes the star of his own story.

Over the years, Gyllenhaal has delivered some wonderful acting performances and Nightcrawler really does look set to another great role for the actor.

Nightcrawler is released 14th November.
