Jesse Eisenberg: Neurotic Zombie Hunter

Written by Violet on September 30, 2009 – 11:42 pm -

Jesse Eisenberg has had some great roles playing the awkward coming-of-age geeky guy. With his newest flick Zombieland, he gets a chance to expand into a new genre of film – horror/comedy. Eisenberg spoke with dailyactor.com and gave some insight into his persona and how he feels inadequate in every film.

Even after the initial shock wears off, can’t you relax and think, “Wow. I really captured something there?”
No. I think I should have done it better or somebody else should have done it. Yeah, you never feel good. And then the times I feel really good after a scene, then I watch it and I’m like, uh, that was boring. From my acting training, you learn to just remain truthful, under what they call “imaginary circumstances.” And so the time you feel most truthful is often boring. So often the times you really feel good with a scene don’t coincide with the kinds of things one might like as a viewer, you know?

I enjoy watching Jesse a lot – too bad he doesn’t think he’s any good. If you aren’t familiar with him – watch The Squid & The Whale from a couple of years back or check him out in Adventureland with Kristen Stewart.

Zombieland co-stars Woody Harrelson, Abigail Breslin, Emma Stone and Amanda Heard and opens Friday October 2nd. Check out red carpet premiere photos of the cast (including Jesse) here.

Emma Watson Is NOT Going To Yale!!

Written by Gossip Gal on March 7, 2009 – 8:45 am -

The Harry Potter star Emma Watson is furious with the reports coming out of a fake Twitter account that she is supposedly going to Yale University.

A statement on her official website said: “There have been several rumors spreading recently that Emma has accepted a place at Yale University after ‘telling her fans via her Twitter account’.

“Emma does not have a Twitter account and these rumors are false. Emma is still trying to decide whether she wants to attend university in the UK or the USA and hasn’t accepted any placements at this time.”

Emma is planning on going to college and has applied to various universities but there is no official word on where and what she is going to take.

Emma Watson: Yale or Cambridge?

Written by Violet on March 2, 2009 – 10:35 pm -

 

She is beautiful, smart and incredibly talented and now has to choose which college she will attend. Emma Watson has made the cut for both Cambridge University in the UK and Yale here in the US. Cambridge is where her family is and it has been said she is leaning towards the prestigious academic institution. Yale would certainly give her an American point of view and is another world class college.

Watson has a tough choice in front of her, like many other teens, but either choice will give her a fantastic opportunity to discover what she wants from life.

Emma Roberts Applies To College

Written by Violet on January 27, 2009 – 11:06 pm -

Hotel for Dogs star Emma Roberts is hoping to be accepted into college for fall. She has just sent out her applications and like so many other teens, is waiting to hear if she is going to the school of her choice.

“I only applied to three schools because I figure if I don’t get into my top choice, I’ll defer and apply again. I want to study photography, literature and writing.”

She is also struggling to get her driver’s license right now as she failed her test and let her permit expire. Happens to lots of us Emma! Hopefully she gets in to the college she wants and gets that license!
