Justin Timberlake Stars In Facebook Movie

Justin Timberlake will play Sean Parker, the Napster co-founder who became Facebook's founding president, in the new movie called "The Social Network" under Columbia Pictures.


As directed by David Fincher, Justin Timberlake will have a starring role in the film about the formation of Facebook. The flick's production will begin next month in Boston then moves to Los Angeles.

Acting alongside Justin Timberlake are Jesse Eisenberg who will play founder Mark Zuckerberg and Andrew Garfield who will portray Eduardo Saverin, the Facebook co-founder "who fell out with Zuckerberg as the social network became a financial juggernaut."

The Aaron Sorkin-scripted drama is based on the book "Accidental Billionaires" and tells the evolution of Facebook and how overnight success and wealth changes the lives of the Harvard classmates who created it.

Now that a solid cast for the film has been confirmed, a facebook movie is not a laughing matter after all. On the contrary, it will be a film worth watching (and discussing) on Facebook.
