Nu American Ultra in de Amerikaanse bioscopen draait, loopt de PR rond om deze stoner actie film op zijn einde. Zo had de website Collider dit interview met de acteur Jesse Eisenberg. Maar naast American Ultra werd er ook gepraat over The Social Network en Batman v Superman. Hier onder kan je alvast een klein stukje lezen van het interview.



One of my most anticipated movies of next year is Batman v Superman. I won't ask you about the plot but I do want to know what did you think it was going to be like being part of the movie, prior to signing on, and what has it been like having done the movie and sort of - because there is a huge amount of interest in the film. What's it been like for you?

EISENBERG
: I've never been involved for something that is parsed to this degree. Whether it be something that someone says that has some tangential relation to the movie or the trailer images that are released. It was initially surprising and fortunately the movie is really wonderful. So when people are parsing what the individuals images maybe be, the takeaway is how interesting the movie looks and how wonderful it is. You know, the script is phenomenal. Written by Chris Terrio, who is just brilliant. And Zack Synder is just visually, masterful. And I think everything that's been released and parsed within an in of its life has been received so well.

Man of Steel is one of my favorite movies of the last few years. I love the movies so much. And everything I keep hearing about Batman v Superman is that Zack has crafted something wonderful. For you, when you were on set making it. Did you get the feeling that you were making this big movie? Or has Zack created this environment that has made you feel insulated from that kind of big budget, big movie pressure?

EISENBERG
: The latter. Absolutely. The way he shoots things - at least, insofar as my scenes were concerned - was very specifically and very simply a lot of my scenes are dialogue driven and it felt like I was on any other kind of intimate movie set. So watching that trailer for the first time, was when I really got a good sense of the overall movie, the look, and I thought it was really incredible.

The environment on the set is one of respect and intimacy and allows the actors to do what actors do well even in the context of this huge and larger scope. And the production.
