Jesse Eisenberg stopped by last night's LATE NIGHT and revealed he was an amazing Annie/Oliver hybrid as a child actor. "I was in a children's theater group and I guess they couldn't get the rights to Annie or to Oliver, so I guess the legal compromise was to do 49% of one, 49% of the other and then kind of create this 2% fictional storyline," he explains.

Later, the actor talks about playing Lex Luthor in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. Check out clips from the appearace below!
