Jesse Eisenberg Recalls Emma Stone “Assaulting Me With Insults” During ‘Zombieland’ Audition


After starring together in 2009's 'Zombieland' and the 2019 sequel, Jesse Eisenberg raved about co-star Emma Stone.

After 15 years, the Zombieland actor recalled how co-star Emma Stone wowed the casting director and left him feeling “so, so small” during her audition for the 2009 Ruben Fleischer-directed post-apocalyptic comedy. Four strangers (Eisenberg, Stone, Abigail Breslin and Woody Harrelson) journey west toward a rumored safe haven in Los Angeles. The cast reunited with Fleischer in 2019 for the sequel Zombieland: Double Tap, which also starred Zoey Deutch, Rosario Dawson, Luke Wilson, Avan Jogia and Bill Murray, reprising his role as himself from the original film.
