Zombieland star Jesse Eisenberg caught taking clothes from film set
Posted by Team Boxwish 4 months ago
Sometimes there’s seemingly no difference between onscreen and offscreen. Just look at the whole Twilight business. Edward and Bella are inseparable and loved-up onscreen and offscreen there are rumours that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are likewise. Sure, it might all just be gossip and speculation, but often we like to imagine that what we see at the cinema is the same as real life. And it’s not just us, the viewers that enjoy blurring this line as many Hollywood stars take it a step further by wearing their actual movie costumes in their everyday lives. Just a few months ago, Cameron Diaz admitted she loves stepping out as herself in her Being John Malkovich costumes (see Related Content, right) and now Jesse Eisenberg, rising star of Zombieland and Adventureland (he likes his “lands”) has spoken of his penchant for pinching screen clothes, a tendency that can prove embarrassing…
Eisenberg has had a fantastic year, being arguably one of the contenders for breakout star of 2009 (along with Star Trek’s Chris Pine, Terminator Salvation and Avatar’s Sam Worthington and Christoph Waltz from Inglourious Basterds) and yet he revealed in a chat with Interview magazine that he’s not big on updating his wardrobe. “I have not bought clothes in years,” he said.
And as an extension of this seeming reluctance to hit the mall, he’s taken to raiding the wardrobe department of his movies. “Usually on the last day of a movie, I’ll sneak into the wardrobe trailer and take some,” he adds, and yet this isn’t always such a good idea. “A few weeks ago, I took a pair of pants from a shoot,” he confesses, “and I just got an email that said I had to FedEx them back, which was humiliating.”
Humiliating indeed, but if it was the “Games Games Games” T-shirt from Adventureland, we sympathise. That is one cool tee!
Get the “Games Games Games” T-shirt.
