Remember hearing about that Facebook movie? You know how you rolled your eyes until you heard Aaron Sorkin was writing it? And then you sat up a little straighter when it was announced David FUCKING Fincher was directing the stupid thing? Yeah, well, The Social Network just got a little more friendly with the addition of Jesse Eisenberg and Justin Timberlake. Yeah, you heard right. 

Eisenberg will play Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, Timberlake will play Sean Park, Napster co-founder and Facebook's founding president, and Andrew Garfield is set to play Eduardo Saverin, the co-founder who had a falling out with Zuckerberg just as FB became a financial success. 

Shooting will begin next month. Kevin Spacey is executive producing. 

The story follows on the evolution of Facebook, which was created in 2004 at Harvad, and how its overnight success changes the lives of the friends who created it. 

What do y'all think? I'm perhaps a little less skeptical of the flick... That Timberlake can do no wrong in my eyes--minus that whole Love Guru thing, of course.
