The acclaimed actor Jesse Eisenberg was born in New York, and raised in New Jersey, in a secular Jewish home, by his parents and two sisters.

His latest film A Real Pain, honours that heritage, and alongside Succession's Kieran Culkin they play Jewish American cousins who travel to former Nazi German-occupied Poland to honour their late grandmother.

The film is tipped to do well at this years Oscars and Baftas, but it was his big break playing Mark Zuckerburg in the 2010 film The Social Network that brought him his first taste of fame and accolades, a role he recently told The Today Programme he’s keen to distance himself from.

He’s gone onto use magic to perform an audacious heist, killed Bill Murray during a zombie apocalypse and even fought Superman.

And his Inheritance Tracks are a charmingly unique insight into the man behind the roles.
