Speaking on the Jackie and Kyle O Show on Sydney's KIIS 1065 FM radio station, she said: "He's great. He is a great guy I have a lot respect for him. He's a very credible person and he is really focused you know. It's really great to watch these people work. I learnt so much."
The 'Nightcrawler' star also had a lot of praise for the blonde beauty and said he has "a lot of time for her".
He recently shared: "She was great. People will see she brought a lot. I have a lot of time for her."
Rita plays a "distressed" drug addict and prostitute in 'Southpaw' and despite only being a small part, she said it's a "very effective" part of the movie.
She added: "With Jake in 'Southpaw' I have a very small part but, it's a very effective part in the movie."
