The line between success and failure can blur under the weight of criticism, especially when it starts to affect your real life. It seems that's what Jesse Eisenberg has been secretly dealing with for nearly a decade.

Batman vs. Superman look like strange wig.
All's well that ends well, though. Eisenberg recently received a Best Actor nomination at January Golden Globes for his role in the film Real pain14 years after his only other nod, which was for his role as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in 2010 The social network.
