Jesse Eisenberg had no idea that the estate of David Foster Wallace objected to the production of his upcoming film about the late writer, “The End of the Tour,” but he’s certain that it’s a fair depiction of the “Infinite Jest” author, nonetheless.
Eisenberg, who is in the midst of promoting his new dark dramedy “The Double,” responded with total surprise when TheWrap asked about the David Foster Wallace Literary Trust’s strong objection to the film, in which Eisenberg stars as David Lipsky, a journalist who accompanies Wallace (played by Jason Segel) during his promotional tour for “Infinite Jest.”
