Stern later remarked that he could see Gyllenhaal and Cadieu getting married one day, so he asked whether the "Nightcrawler" thought the 25-year-old was the one.

Gyllenhaal was reluctant in his answer as he stated he was only willing to go so far into the topic of marriage. However, he did say he loved Cadieu very much and that she was a good person. As for getting married to one another, Gyllenhaal noted that it was a choice both of them had to make.

"I don't think she really enjoys, you know, all the other stuff, and so that's part of the reason why I just adore her. And not at all the main reason but... one of them. "
