Jesse Eisenberg Responds to Anti-Gay Protesters During Pride Parade in London: 'That's So F***ed Up'
Jesse Eisenberg didn’t waste time with pleasantries when he happened upon an anti-LGBT protest in London on Saturday.
A video posted on YouTube by an onlooker shows that a casually dressed Eisenberg was walking a rented bike through the city when he passed a group preaching the evils of homosexuality.
He approached the protesters in order to read their many signs, stopping occasionally to shake his head, when a nearby protestor asked, “Is your mind closed?”
“Is my mind closed? Dude, that’s so f***ed up,” Eisenberg, 32, replied before walking away.
London has spent the last two weeks celebrating its LGBT population with a Pride Festival that began on June 10 and will end on Sunday.
The Café Society actor is currently in London as the play he penned, a dark comedy called The Spoils, continues its West End run.
