Timberlake plays internet entrepreneur Sean Parker, the co-founder of Napster), who began informally advising Mark Zuckerberg (played in the film by Jesse Eisenberg), the co-creator of Facebook, and later became its president when the company incorporated in 2004.
The film has a rumored budget of $47 million. The screenplay was written by Aaron Sorkin.
The Social Network was released October 1st, 2010 and stars Jesse Eisenberg, Rooney Mara, Bryan Barter, Dustin Fitzsimons, Armie Hammer, Joseph Mazzello, Patrick Mapel, Max Minghella. The film is directed by David Fincher.

Sadly, I think a Napster movie sounds cooler than this, at least we know there's some drama in it haha.

From Napster to Facebook what an arseholio. Still, this may be pretty good, I kinda want to know the story. I thought Zuckerberg was the creator.

haha that was a good one 24. Fincher is the only reason I have faith in this. And how could a movie about college kids making a website possibly cost 47 million?

I have an Idea. "How MovieWeb turned into Facebook". Rated R for strong language.
Nuff said.

Why is this news? Doesn't really give any news on the production. Just a picture of one of the guys in it. So what?

The guy is probably pissed at Timberlake because ripped Janet Jackson's bra off.

Fincher is the man so I look forward to this no matter how stupid it MIGHT be.

myspace was bigger but idk if it still is. everybody seems to be all about facebook.

interesting idea... though i'll suspend anticipation until i see more than a pic of JT with his hands in his pockets. as for JT's transition into acting - the jury is still out, but this could help him or crush him. The fact that Sorkin is writing it ups JT's and the movie's stock a bit.

I think they did a 60 minutes segment of it.

Really? A Facebook movie? Are you kidding me? If it's SO interesting as to how it started, why not just interview the actual people involved and make a doc*mentary out of it? This should be like a VH1 Behind the Music deal, like, "Behind the Website"; not a full, big-budget film.

I think Myspace is bigger than Facebook, but Facebook is probably more preferable.

Your right, Chad. For some reason, I actually believed this Timberlake guy could pull off a good transfer into the acting world.

Btw, isn't Myspace bigger than Facebook?
