Now You See Me star Jesse Eisenberg reveals the surprising public location where he always goes to work on creative projects
He may be an acclaimed Hollywood actor, script-writer and novelist.
But Jesse Eisenberg, 36, prefers to work on his award-winning projects in the company of every-day civilians.
‘I write in one place. In one library in New York,’ the Now You See Me star told The Herald Sun on Sunday.

I sit next to a friend of mine who writes his own things and I am incredibly prolific in that exact circumstance,’ he said, before jokingly adding: ‘Outside of that exact chair I am useless’.
While libraries in America have closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Jesse is spending his free time volunteering at an Indiana domestic abuse shelter that was started by his late mother-in-law.
When the pandemic started, the Social Network star and his wife, Anna Strout, packed up their belongings in Los Angeles and headed to Indiana in an RV.

There, they self-quarantined for two weeks before beginning work at the shelter.
‘My wife and I are very involved on a day-to-day level — painting and cleaning and mopping,’ Jesse told CNN earlier this month.
‘I married a person who is a walking saint and so she has not spent a day in her life not doing something to help those most in need. So, for her, it was kind of without hesitancy that we should come here and figure out ways to help.’

Meanwhile, Jesse is gearing up to appear in the third movie of the Now You See It franchise.
The first Now You See Me debuted in 2013, following a group of magicians known as The Four Horsemen (Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco and Isla Fisher).
The story follows these illusionists as they pull off daring feats around the world, all while eluding an FBI agent (Mark Ruffalo), Interpol and their former financier (Michael Caine).
