Mr Eisenberg has begun legal action against the Lionsgate studio for using his likeness without consent, and is seeking $3 million.
"The distributors are now attempting to fraudulently deceive and mislead the public and reap millions of dollars by capitalising on Eisenberg's newfound fame," the lawsuit said.
"Eisenberg's reputation and goodwill with the public and his fans will be severely harmed if they are duped into purchasing a copy."
Another film Mr Eisenberg appeared in before he became famous was Holy Rollers, a tale of Chasidic drug smugglers. The film made only $3 million at the US box office, according to the site Rotten Tomatoes.
