Actor Jesse Eisenberg is about to make one of the most selfless moves imaginable — he’s donating a kidney to someone he’s never met. The Now You See Me star announced the news during a live appearance on the Today show, explaining that the surgery is scheduled for mid-December and describing it as an “altruistic donation.” Eisenberg, already known as a regular blood donor, said he’s “so excited to do it,” calling the procedure “essentially risk-free and so needed.” He added that he hopes more people will consider donating once they realize how impactful — and relatively safe — it is. His announcement caught the Today hosts off guard, as he revealed that his decision came from his growing passion for helping others through donation. The timing also highlights a serious issue: the U.S. currently has about 90,000 people waiting for kidney transplants, according to federal data.
