Jesse Eisenberg Set To Star In SuperBad Follow-Up, Adventureland

It seems The Squid and the Whale star Jesse Eisenberg is making a splash in Hollywood at the moment. The star has been picked to star in SuperBad director Greg Mottola’s next film, Adventureland.

Eisenberg, talking to MTV about the film has said, “I play a lot of directors’ awkward stages in their lives,” when asked if the film will be on the same scale as SuperBad, he replied, “SuperBad.” “It’s probably closer [in tone] to ‘The Daytrippers.’”

The film is based on Mottola’s own personal experiences at the Long Island amusement park and is set in the 1980’s. In the movie, we follow the story of a college graduate who was ready for his gap year in Europe before starting Grad School until his father is laid off, making him stuck at home in Long Island, New York. He is forced to get a job at the local amusement park, Adventureland, where comedy ensues and romance blossoms.
