Interview With "A Real Pain" Director/Writer/Actor Jesse Eisenberg

"A Real Pain" had its world premiere at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, where it won positive reviews for Jesse Eisenberg's direction, screenplay, and performances from him and Kieran Culkin. The film, only the actor's second directorial feature, is already being talked about as a potential awards season player, and we were lucky enough to chat with Eisenberg for a few minutes during the theatrical promotion of the film to gather his thoughts on the reception toward the movie, hear interesting tidbits from behind-the-scenes in working with Culkin, what he learned from his last film " When You Finish Saving The World," and more. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in theaters from Searchlight Pictures and is eligible in all categories for the upcoming 97th Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor (Eisenberg), Best Supporting Actor (Culkin) and Best Original Screenplay.
