The happiest moments for me, creatively, are doing readings of a play around a table where there's no audience.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
It's a very strange experience to watch yourself in a movie anyway. I most frequently don't do it, but if I was going to do it, I would do it in a private way, not at a public screening at a film festival, which is just an overwhelming experience.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I don't understand capri pants. They seem like neither here nor there.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
Actors dread working with studios because they dictate what you do in a way that independent movies can't.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
It's a struggle for me to watch things I've been in because I'm just distracted and self-critical.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
Everyone's a geek in some way or other. Everyone's an outsider.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I don't go to movies, I don't own a television, I don't buy magazines and I try not to receive mail, so I'm not really aware of popular culture.
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
I prefer playing characters that are going through turmoil. Most movie characters are just in service to the story.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I tend to prefer the smaller movies because they shoot more efficiently and so you're are able to maintain that momentum of the character a little more easily.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I write plays instinctively. I don't like writing movie scripts.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I think the most important thing for an actor is reading the script and trying to figure out if you can play that character well. The last thing on my mind is if the director made good movies previously. It's not my job to know if that director's last movie was any good - it's my job to know if I can play the role.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
The truth is people are very nice. The other truth is, it's very annoying to be constantly interrupted. I don't love myself enough to want to share myself with everybody.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I'm kind of shocked any time somebody hires me and even more shocked any time somebody hires me to play a character like Lex Luthor, which I only knew from the public consciousness of him being a bald, brooding villain who is older than me.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
I'm not into music - the only music I like is musical theater, but I have every Ween album.
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 feel very guilty doing magic because you're deceiving somebody.
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.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
In 'Zombieland,' it was such a freewheeling plot it almost didn't matter what the characters were doing scene to scene as long as there was a consistent banter.

Devils don't come from hell beneath us, they come from the sky.
