Sibling love: Jake and Maggie Gyllenhaal spent some time together in Hawaii following their father's wedding earlier this week


They are hugely popular Hollywood actors, so don't get to spend much time together.

So when siblings Jake and Maggie Gyllenhaal had the opportunity to meet up at their father's wedding, they were determined to spend as much time as possible together.

Following the nuptials earlier this week, Jake and Maggie were seen hitting the surf in North Shore Oahu, Hawaii on Wednesday.

Beach bodies: Jake showed off his buff physique in a pair of blue swimming shorts, while Maggie opted for a black strapless swimsuit


And it seems the pair were competing for the best beach body as they strolled into the water.

While Maggie showed off her slender frame in a chic strapless black swimsuit, Jake caused a stir as he displayed his enviably muscular physique in a pair of printed blue swimming shorts.

In a recent interview, Jake said it was his sister's love of acting and musical theatre which first inspired him to get into the industry.

Bit cold? The pair had a quick dip but appeared to have found the water slightly too cool as they made their way out

He said: 'Some of my earliest memories are of my sister coming back from doing a rehearsal for some musical during elementary school.

'I would watch her, and I realized that she got attention that way. I joined her and we would put on shows together and she would always boss me around.

'She would put on a stage performance of Cats, and I would be a lone, poor cat sitting in the corner while my sister performed. I never got to be the star. I did everything wrong according to her.'

But Jake said recently he has no desire to collaborate with Maggie on a film project any time soon, after they appeared together in Donnie Darko in 2001.

He said: 'I love her a lot, but we don't go around looking for something to work on together.

'I would rather spend time with my niece and spend time as brother and sister.

'It would take something that I love so much, that I would need her to be a part of, and vice versa.'

Jake and Maggie took a back seat earlier this week as they attended the wedding of their father Stephen to filmmaker and professor Kathleen Man.

The informal ceremony took place on the beach in front of just 30 guests.

Man is a Hawaii native who graduated from the Punahou School, where President Obama went to high school, in 1992.

He split from Naomi Foner nearly three years ago after 32 years. Jake and Maggie's mother Naomi is also in the showbiz industry.

The American screenwriter even earned herself an Oscar nomination and won a Golden Globe for River Phoenix screenplay Running On Empty.

Stephen and his new bride were both dressed in white, feeling the water between their toes as they walked barefoot on the sand.
