Jesse Eisenberg has already put himself back on the map with the genre-bending romantic dramedy mystery Fleishman Is In Trouble. The acclaim of that series is leading him into 2023 when his very first feature film, When You Finish Save The World, which, altogether, might make next year a banner year for Eisenberg.
When You Finish Save The World is enticing before you even press play on the trailer with a cast of Finn Wolfhard and Julianne Moore as a mother and son at odds with each other as he is trying to find himself and, of course, A24 putting their stamp of approval on it. From first glance, it has sharp and very nuanced writing that almost suggests a spiritual sequel to Bo Burnham’s very own celebrated coming-of-age dramedy, Eighth Grade. That’s enough to sell us on going to see it when it hits theaters in limited release as soon as we can.
Go see for yourself with the first trailer for When You Finish Saving The World here, then look for it in theaters near you starting Jan. 20th, 2023.
