Image
The only suggestions I get on my plays is to make them more of what they already are, and that's wonderful.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
[As an actor] you're looking to crawl into an anonymous fictional person's skin, but then you have the ironic obligation to promoting the movie in such a public way that it almost undermines the initial intention of going under the radar.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
A lot of times the character's experience is not in accordance with the tone of the movie and it's not really my job to account for the tone of the movie. That's the director's job.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
If you look at the movies that come out, most of them are bad, so it's not as if achieving some level of success means you get offered better roles, because frankly they don't seem to exist.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
It's a struggle for me to watch things I've been in because I'm just distracted and self-critical.

Actors dread working with studios because they dictate what you do in a way that independent movies can't.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
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.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I don't attribute an actor's great success to their own individual performance when it's something as collaborative as a movie.
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.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I'm hardly the most notable person in 'Zombieland.' The other actors in it are way more famous than I am.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
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.'
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I think I prioritize other people's opinions of me very highly, which is not necessarily a good thing - it's a thing that causes a lot of anxiety.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
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.

If you went to Harvard Medical School, chances are you'll be a doctor at some place. There's a career trajectory. Acting, there's nothing. It's constantly trying to procure jobs - it's very disconcerting.

The ideal way to approach a character is to find something in yourself that relates in some way.
