Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal practiced arguing with one another before they shot new film 'Prisoners'.
The big name Hollywood actors see their characters Kelly Dover (Jackman) and Detective Loki (Gyllenhaal) go head to head in the thriller, and cursed each other out in real life in a bid to really understand their roles.
The story revolves around carpenter Keller who sees his daughter and his neighbours' offspring snatched from a quiet suburb over Thanksgiving.
Detective Loki quickly closes in on creepy Alex Jones (Paul Dano) but then releases him without charge as he fails to build a credible case up against him, which doesn't go down well with Keller, who is convinced Jones is guilty, and takes him prisoner in a bid to find the whereabouts of his child.
Speaking on UK TV show 'Lorraine' this morning (26.9.13), Gyllenhaal said: "Hugh and I, we tried to fight all the time, before, months and months."
Jackman quipped: "Even just in the hallway."
Gyllenhaal added: "We just kept trying to get it right."
