Saying that actors and actresses tend to have different interview experiences is a huge understatement. The questions “entertainment journalists” ask male stars are usually centered around the film they were actually brought in to talk about, while more often than not female stars are asked irrelevant personal questions about their love life or their next hairstyle. To expose how unfair this practice really is, the stars of the upcoming film American Ultra, Kristen Stewart and Jesse Eisenberg, conducted a different type of interview. In this video from Funny or Die, the co-stars interview each other and quickly realize their question cards have been switched, leading to some much-needed discomfort.
