Olivia Wilde Dating Jason SudeikisShe has been linked to some of Tinseltown’s hunkiest hot shots, and now it looks as if Olivia Wilde has finally found her leading man.  According to the new issue Us Weekly, the “In Time” actress and “Saturday Night Live” funny guy Jason Sudeikis are officially an item.

A source tells US Weekly that Wilde, 27, and Sudesikis, 36, have not been hiding their new romance, either. Jason brought Wilde to the show’s after party at NYC’s Loi on December 4, where “they walked in holding hands,” according to a source.  Another source added that she has come to the SNL studio at Rockefeller Center and they have gone out to dinner after rehearsals.

Wilde finalized her divorce from Tao Ruspoli in October, and the two remain friends.  But since then, she’s been linked to Bradley Cooper, Ryan Gosling, and Ryan Reynolds along with a few others.  Olivia put it best when she said that in order to be dating all the people they think she is, she would need four vaginas noting that it is impossible.  Back in February, Ryan was spotted flirting with Olivia at a Golden Gloves party, and the two went on a date at a Kentucky aquarium after that. Maybe it did not go anywhere, because from there, Olivia was rumored to be dating her In Time costar, Justin Timberlake.  Wilde denied the rumors, Tweeting “Cool it, honeybadgers,” noting that they are just friends and have been for years.

Then, in June, Olivia reportedly got cozy with Cooper at a party for The Hangover II.  Again, Olivia denied the rumor.  A few weeks after that, she and Jake Gyllenhaal were reportedly being all touchy-feely with each other at the Chateau Marmont, but they left separately.  And then there was Ryan Reynolds.  She and Reynolds allegedly checked out Jeff Bridges performing at the Troubador in June.  So she’s been linked to pretty much everyone in Hollywood. However, she has said in the past that she prefers being in a relationship to being single.  According to her, she finds that commitment is very relaxing and the process of searching for a partner in life keeps you at this level of insecurity.  She claimed that you are like this heat-seeking missile, just trying to figure out where to plug-in.

As for Sudeikis, he dated Mad Men star January Jones for six months before the duo split in January 2011.  Before that, he was married to actress and 30 Rock writer Kay Cannon.  He has also managed to land a string of hotties.  Before Munn, Sudeikis was linked to January Jones, Ashley Olsen and Eva Mendes.  The new report does not seem that farfetched! Wilde is currently filming The Longest Week with Jason Bateman, one of Sudeikis’ good pals.  Not to mention they would make one adorable couple.  Reps for Olivia and Jason have yet to comment on the story.  In related “SNL” coupling news, co-star Kristen Wiig was, according to the New York Post, spotted “canoodling” with Strokes drummer (and Drew Barrymore ex) Fabrizio Moretti.

Olivia Wilde is comfortable with casual nudity.  If you have seen Jon Favreau’s Cowboys & Aliens or plan to see David Dobkin’s body-switching comedy The Change-Up, you either have witnessed or are about to witness the stunning actress in various forms of undress.  However, is she ready to make the leap to full-blown adult film star?  This is separate from another Lovelace movie with Malin Akerman, who replaced Lindsay Lohan in the starring role.  Wilde said that she is being careful about her next project since she is now in a position where she can be really picky.

While there are many reports that Olivia Wilde was considering starring in Lovelace, a biopic from Oscar-winning co-directors Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman, the Hollywood superhottie said that she is no longer considering headlining the film.  Linda Lovelace was the late 1970’s adult movie actress most famous for her film Deep Throat.  According to Wilde, she is not doing that one after saying that it would be a tremendous honor to potentially playing the 1970s X-rated icon.  She also said that time that she was a fascinating woman with where she came from Deep Throat to then working with Gloria Steinem and Nora Ephron.  She claimed that it is really fascinating.  Reportedly, Wilde’s decision to walk away from the flick was based on several factors, including simply deciding the project was not for her and possible scheduling conflicts.

Wilde revealed her departure from the film, titled Lovelace, at last night’s Glamour Reel Moments event in West Hollywood where she made her directorial debut with the hilariously funny short film Free Hugs.  Lovelace is set to be co-directed by Oscar-winners Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman.  Kate Hudson and James Franco were some of the names attached to the film casting.  But Wilde stopped well short of verbally committing to the role and actually added that she’s taking her time selecting her next few projects because she finally has earned a cache of professional credibility and would like to apply it wisely.

However, Wilde is focusing on her newfound love of directing.  She said she cannot wait to do it again.  According to her, there is another short she wants to direct and she is writing a feature that she will direct expressing the love and fun she ever had with it.  Eva Longoria and Zoe Saldana also directed short films at last night’s Clarisonic-sponsored event. Longoria says she loves being behind the camera, but she is not going to direct any upcoming episodes of Desperate Housewives.

Meanwhile, Wilde continues her humanitarian work with the launch of Operation Happiness, a nonprofit encouraging young people to help the less fortunate.  She explained that it is to engage young people to dedicate part of their lives to giving.  She said that in a generation chock full of anti-depressants, people really believe that the path to happiness for some of them may not be through medication but by turning their energy outward and giving to those who need more than they do.
