AMERICAN ULTRA: Intervista completa a Jesse e Kris
“What if Jason Bourne had been a stoner?” That’s the (absurd) question at the heart of American Ultra, the upcoming film starring Jesse Eisenberg (Batman V Superman) as Mike Howell, a typical stoner slacker convenience store clerk, who suddenly finds himself the target of a CIA op to erase highly-trained sleeper agents. Turns out Mike is one of those agents – a surprise to him, as much as anybody. When his girlfriend Phoebe (Kristen Stewart) gets caught up in the crossfire, Mike decides it’s time to push through the haze and save the day.
Last summer, Screen Rant was included in a handful of online journalists that were invited to the New Orleans set of American Ultra (a title that references the famous CIA “MKUltra” program). There, we got to dine and chat with director Nima Nourizadeh (Project X) and writer Max Landis (Chronicle), as well interviewing stars Jesse Eisenberg and Kristen Stewart, who play Mike Howell (a stoner who doesn’t know he’s actually a Bourne-style sleeper agent) and his stoner girlfriend, Phoebe. Both Eisenberg and Stewart shared what it was like to get this high-octane script from Chronicle writer Max Landis, what it’s like playing stoners, and being two unlikely candidates for a summer action movie.
