@varietymagazine: #JesseEisenberg says he turned down #AaronSorkin's #TheSocialReckoning because he was "moving in different directions" and no longer wanted to be "associated with the character" of Mark Zuckerberg. “The way Aaron speaks, in a way, if you’re not going to do something with him, it almost feels like you’re letting down America.”
this a mature and totally fair answer but it’s absolutely hilarious to hear “moving in a diff direction in my life” in front of minions lmao

People pointing out he’s saying all this at a Minions premiere which is objectively funny, but to be fair, that movie probably cost him a week and a half of going to a recording booth and not having to do any hair or make up or work, really. He’s lending his voice and name to the Minions movie, and getting a nice payday for it.

He’s been directing and starring in his own movies that won several award this past award season so yeah I think he’s has a valid reason for turning down the role
