Jesse Eisenberg Actors Quotations

It's really hard to copy another actor and be successful. In fact, that's usually the reason people are not good, because they're copying something they've seen, but, for some reason with their face and their body, it doesn't work.

I know some amazing actors who are not mortified every moment of the day, so my feeling is that maybe you don't have to be a wreck to be good.

[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.

Nothing is harder than working with an actor who doesn't take it seriously or show up in the same way that you are.

As an actor, you have to be open to doing things where you look stupid, to be experimental.

Actors dread working with studios because they dictate what you do in a way that independent movies can't.

As an actor, if I show up late somewhere or I say something that's eccentric, it's totally acceptable - not only that, it's lauded in some perverse way.

As an actor, you are in a unique position because you're not only memorizing dialogue but really embodying it. You naturally feel the rhythm of good writing.

I'm hardly the most notable person in 'Zombieland.' The other actors in it are way more famous than I am.

You can tell when you watch a movie, usually, what the actors' experience was on the movie, because even the smallest of roles were interesting.

I don't attribute an actor's great success to their own individual performance when it's something as collaborative as a movie.
