8. Actor/director Jesse Eisenberg is donating a kidney

Mon Nov 17, 2025, 04:35 PM

Monday

He donates blood regularly and was registered to be an organ donor. They called him recently and said they had a match with a recipient, someone he doesn't know. He said "No problem" and will get the surgery next month.
