Social Network's Jesse Eisenberg encounter with Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg "overwhelming"


Face to face with the Facebook creator.

Social Network star Jesse Eisenberg never expected he'd actually cross paths with the real deal, Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg.


The young Oscar nominated actor was ecstatic, yet never felt it was awkward meeting the young CEO for the very first time this past weekend on Saturday Night Live.

Reveals Eisenberg on Sunday's E! SAG red carpet special, "It was an overwhelming experience. We were both so excited to be there."

"I kind of built up this great anticipation and it was perfectly fitting that I meet him in equally built up context of live TV," he adds.

And despite Zuckerberg's negative views on the Facebook biopic, Eisenberg took it all in stride and described the young tycoon as being a good sport about it all. Both actually discussed what would work in the opening skit of the show.

"It was wonderful," says Eisenberg. "I was so happy that he agreed to do it..we were both able to have fun at the situation."

And you could have mistaken them for twins.
