More quotes by Jesse Eisenberg
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
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
The happiest moments for me, creatively, are doing readings of a play around a table where there's no audience.
Jesse Eisenberg
I prefer playing characters that are going through turmoil. Most movie characters are just in service to the story.
Jesse Eisenberg
The ideal way to approach a character is to find something in yourself that relates in some way.
Jesse Eisenberg
I think I'm an abstinence symbol. If I take my shirt off, people will not have babies.
Jesse Eisenberg
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.
Jesse Eisenberg
I grew up in an apolitical household. I never left the country. When I became an adult, I started traveling and became interested in politics, and I probably talked about things in a silly, ignorant way.
Jesse Eisenberg
I write plays instinctively. I don't like writing movie scripts.
Jesse Eisenberg
As an actor, you have to be open to doing things where you look stupid, to be experimental.
Jesse Eisenberg
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.
Jesse Eisenberg
I purposefully isolate myself from anything that has to do with any press. I don't read any press about myself.
Jesse Eisenberg
When you're on set you don't realize the way something is going to look since you're on the other side of the camera.
Jesse Eisenberg
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
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
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
When you are in a live-action movie, you have so many more options to express yourself. You can use your body and your gestures and facial expressions. When you are doing an animated movie, you really only have your voice.
Jesse Eisenberg
My job when I'm acting in a movie is very limited to playing a role. I'm not evaluating somebody. I'm only evaluating them insofar as they're interacting with me, but I'm not evaluating their skill set and I don't watch the movies, so I'm not aware of the way they're putting things together.
Jesse Eisenberg
I don't understand capri pants. They seem like neither here nor there.
Jesse Eisenberg
Where I feel something that I had written was misinterpreted in a way that made people feel bad, that is absolutely horrifying to me. I feel so embarrassed and I feel ashamed that I should make people feel bad.
Jesse Eisenberg
