Depression, if it's an unconsciously elected experience, is a luxury.

I'm hardly the most notable person in 'Zombieland.' The other actors in it are way more famous than I am.

The first rule of Zombieland: Cardio. When the zombie outbreak first hit, the first to go, for obvious reasons ... were the fatties.

I meet people who are in movies, and the stuff that they write is terrible, but nobody tells them that because they're famous. So I worry that my stuff might be like that, too.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I prefer playing characters that are going through turmoil. Most movie characters are just in service to the story.

I don't watch the movies I'm in - ever. Sometimes I keep pictures, but that's it. I used to watch my movies, because I didn't want to be rude to the people making them, but I stopped a few years ago. I think it's pretty common among actors. It's like listening to your own voice, but multiplied by a million.

I can't watch myself in interviews. I feel like I look like a wreck. My mom is always calling me and going, 'Stop fidgeting,' and it's like, 'You have no idea what it's like, Mom.'

I'm not into music - the only music I like is musical theater, but I have every Ween album.

Acting is a weird profession. It's very disquieting, and at the time it just made me so confused. It's only when you step away from a movie for several weeks or months that you start to put things in perspective.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I think there are probably a lot of actors like me who I think probably struggle to feel comfortable in their own lives, and acting in some ways provides a safe context for them to live out emotions that they possibly repress or live out experiences that they are not afforded by virtue of circumstance.

Image
Who walks around proud of things they've done? That's an obnoxious quality.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
Actors dread working with studios because they dictate what you do in a way that independent movies can't.

Poor people are gross and they 'smell bad
Jesse Eisenberg

Any time you play a character for a long period of time, regardless of how close it is to you, it infiltrates your life. It's impossible for it not to.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
The scariest people to turn a movie over to are always the people who are drawing up the poster, because that's the first impression it's going to make. And very often it's portraying a very different film from the one the actors actually did.

Mother Teresa was asked what was the meaning of life, and she said to help other people, and I thought, 'What a strange thing to say' - but maybe it's the right thing to say.

Im not on Page Six, because I dont have anything salacious happening in my life unfortunately.

People think, 'You're an actor, you can afford clothes,' but I just try to take the clothes from the movie, which makes the selecting of film projects that much more difficult, because you try to play characters that might wear something you'd want to wear.

I don't follow sports that much now, but I was a Phoenix Suns fanatic in the early '90s.

I personally don’t feel the need to be radical for its own sake, but I probably couldn’t if I tried anyway.
