VIDEO: Jesse Eisenberg and Mark Zuckerberg Finally Meet on Saturday Night Live

Days after receiving his first Oscar nomination for his performance as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Network, Jesse Eisenberg finally met the man behind status updates and poking on Saturday Night Live. During the opening monologue, Eisenberg was interrupted by Andy Samberg's impression of Zuckerberg and the two compared tips on how to play the part.

Travolta's rep didn't respond to the News' request for comment.
