Jesse Eisenberg on His New Films, Old Insecurities and Nice Guy David Fincher

It’s purely accidental that Jesse Eisenberg should have three movies opening in theaters in the next 10 days. Still, it’s all the reminder you need that the 26-year-old New Yorker is as in demand as virtually any young actor in the business. Coming off 2009’s mainstream tandem of Zombieland and Adventureland , Eisenberg begins an all indie May this Friday in New York with the microbudget marvel The Living Wake . He follows that next week with the drug-running drama Holy Rollers and the Michael Douglas showcase Solitary Man (as well as Wake ‘s L.A. opening). And then there’s David Fincher’s The Social Network , which he just completed as well. Needless to say, we had plenty to catch up on recently when Eisenberg called Movieline HQ.
