Jesse Eisenberg showed ‘Sasquatch Sunset’ to a monkey and it tried to punch his character's face

Jesse Eisenberg showed his new bigfoot film, 'Sasquatch Sunset,' to the world's smartest monkey and it tried to punch his character's face.

“The smartest nonhuman animal is the Bonobo monkey at this ape initiative in Des Moines, Iowa, named Kanzi,” Eisenberg told host Jimmy Fallon. Fallon then revealed an image of Kanzi sitting with his arms crossed in front of the television set, staring at Eisenberg’s bigfoot self on screen. “Calling out for other sasquatches was a high-pitched squeak, while anger or eating had a different kind of vocal quality.”
