He has received additional nominations for one Academy Award, three British Academy Film Awards, three Golden Globe Awards, and three Tony Awards.
After making his acting debut in City Slickers (1991), Gyllenhaal's first nominations were for October Sky (1999), an American biographical film about NASA engineer Homer Hickam. His performance as the title character in the 2001 psychological thriller film Donnie Darko earned him a Young Hollywood Award and a nomination for the Independent Spirit Award for Best Male Lead. Gyllenhaal's role opposite Heath Ledger in Brokeback Mountain received critical acclaim. In addition to receiving the BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role and the MTV Movie Award for Best Performance, he was nominated in the Best Supporting Actor category at the 78th Academy Awards, the 11th Critics' Choice Awards, the 10th Satellite Awards, and the 12th Screen Actors Guild Awards.

Gyllenhaal received numerous accolades for his performance in Nightcrawler (2014), in which he plays a stringer who records violent late-night events and sells the footage to the media. He was recognised by several regional film critics associations and was nominated for the BAFTA Award, Screen Actors Guild Award, Golden Globe Award and Critics' Choice Movie Award, surprisingly missing in the Best Actor Oscar category. In 2016, he starred in Nocturnal Animals, receiving another nomination for the BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role. Gyllenhaal's portrayal of Boston Marathon bombing survivor Jeff Bauman in Stronger (2017) earned him the Hollywood Actor Award at the Hollywood Film Awards, as well as Best Actor nominations at the 23rd Critics' Choice Awards and the 22nd Satellite Awards.
Gyllenhaal's theatrical debut was in Kenneth Lonergan's London revival of This Is Our Youth in 2002, for which he won the Evening Standard Theatre Award for Outstanding Newcomer. For his performance in the Broadway play Sea Wall/A Life, he was nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role in a Play at the 74th Tony Awards.
