Jesse Eisenberg is a phenomenal actor. TheZombielandactor who made his directorial debut withWhen You Finish Saving The World, is now back to directing his nextA Real Painset in Poland. WhenKieran Culkinwas offered the script he agreed readily, but soon began to look for reasons to not do the film.
“This is going to sound terrible, but I’ve tried to get out of it because it’s going to make my life miserable… I was finding every reason to not do it. I was like, “I’ll watch his first film, maybe it’s going to be terrible.” I watched it, and I was like, “Shit. It’s really good.” Well, let me reread the script, I’m going to find holes in it….. I reread it and it was so wonderful.”
No matter what he tried, Culkin couldn’t get himself to say no since he was completely awestruck by the script. TheSuccessionstar explains how right after the script he went straight to his wife to apologise.
“When I finished it, I went to my wife and I was like, “I’m sorry, honey. F**k, I have to go do this movie.” It’s just too good.”
Seeing Culkin’s reaction we can anticipate the film is going to be amazing as well. We sure can’t wait to watch it since it will be starring both Kieran Culkin and Jesse Eisenberg in the lead, who will be playing cousins visiting Poland after their great-aunt’s death.
