Jake Gyllenhaal is "great" says Reese Witherspoon

Actress Reese Witherspoon, who appeared on the Ellen DeGeneres show earlier today, refused to disclose details of her relationship with 'Rendition' costar Jake Gyllenhaal - but was happy to admit that he's good looking.

She told DeGeneres: "Jake's cute, Yeah. He's great," she replied with a laugh.

People.com reports that the 'Legally Blond' actress was asked by DeGeneres to choose her favorite Rendition costar: Jake or Meryl Streep - to which Reese replied: "I have to choose one? That's not fair!"

Ellen also told Witherspoon, whose divorce from Ryan Phillippe was made official this month, that she looked "happy and healthy," and asked after her children.

"I'm very well, thank you," Witherspoon said. "Everybody's great."

Meanwhile, Paul McCartney's former wife, Heather Mills has revealed that she wants Reese to play her in a film about her life, A source close to Mills said: “She feels someone like Reese Witherspoon should play her. Heather wants an unknown to play Paul.

“Heather sees this film as the tragic and empowering story of her life. A young model who gets run over and loses her leg and marries her prince. But the most interesting part of the tale will be the dark goings on behind closed doors.
