Facebook the Movie Makes Connections with Jesse Eisenberg and Justin Timberlake
As we told you last year, Aaron Sorkin wrote a drama about the formation of Facebook. (See "Facebook the Movie?")
Now, Columbia Pictures and director David Fincher are making important connections to complete its main cast for the film, which is being called, "The Social Network."
Here's the cast:
*** Jesse Eisenberg ("Adventureland") will play founder Mark Zuckerbeg
*** Justin Timberlake ("The Open Road") will bring sexy back as Sean Parker, the Napster co-founder who became Facebook's founding president
*** Andrew Garfield (“The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus") will play Eduardo Saverin, the Facebook co-founder who became Zuckerberg's nemesis
Production is set to begin in October and will be shot in Boston and Los Angeles.
"The Social Network" is shaping up to be an interesting film. The formation of Facebook and all the drama it entailed is full of catfighting, backstabbing, and drama queens!
