We've seen Jay Baruchel on the big screen plenty of times and we can't help leaving the cinema a bit of a crush on the Canadian cutie. Here are some facts about Jay...
Jay's full name is Jonathan Adam Saunders Baruchel. He is Canadian and lives in Montreal
Think Jay looks familiar? He's starred in smash hits like Tropic Thunder, Knocked Up and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.
He started taking acting classes when he was 12.
His other talents include playing the drums (he played in a band called Martin) and he speaks fluent French (he can whisper sweet nothings into your ear in two languages!).
He started his career on a Nickelodeon horror-themed show called, Are You Afraid of the Dark in the early 90's. (Which was AMAZING by the way!)
The Sorcerer's Apprentice is released in cinemas on August 11

Rumors have been whizzing about recently that Disney lovebirds Demi Lovato and Joe Jonasare on the verge of splitting up - but it's not true. Instead Jemi have decide to slow things down after agreeing their relationship was getting too serious, too soon. But it seems that Joe was the one who suggested it...
Canadian gossip site Zacktaylor.ca quoted a source close to the couple as saying, "Demi loves Joe so much, and knows he feels the same. Joe and her had a conversation the other night about how quickly the seriousness of the relationship was getting, and wanted to slow things down a bit. Obviously Demi didn't like what he had to say, but she respects him, and the two are calming things down."
The insider also revealed that it was Demi's constant gushing about Joe that gave him cold feet. "He doesn't like everyone knowing everything, and that's what ultimately pushed him over the top. They both care for each other a lot, just need a little 'time-out'..."
We think it's a bit cheeky of Joe to suggest Demi was getting too serious - wasn't it Joe who recently gave her a promise ring?
