The 34-year-old actor and 39-year-old actress were seen shooting scenes in Pasadena, California for the project which is set to be released next year.

The Nightcrawler star sported a full bushy beard and floppy brunette locks.

Aussie beauty Fisher was seen in a chambray shirt with tight jeans and carried a tan tote bag.

The mother-of-three's fiery red tresses fell voluminous in soft waves. 

Not seen on set were the duo's co-stars Amy Adams, Aaron-Taylor Johnson and Armie Hammer.

The adaptation of Austin Wright’s 1993 book Tony and Susan follows a woman (Adams) who gets sent a mysterious manuscript from her ex-husband asking for her opinion.

Susan becomes enthralled with the fictional life of the protagonist, Tony Hastings (Gyllenhaal) and his wife Laura (Fisher), and as both stories unfold, Susan is plunged back into her dark past. 

Split into two parts, the second half of the movie follows Tony and his family vacation which takes a violent turn. 

American fashion designer Tom Ford is credited to have written the script and will produce as well as direct the film.

This will be Ford's second foray into film direction, having debuted with A Single Man in 2009 for which Colin Firth received an Oscar nomination for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role.
