I’ve been a pretty bad Facebook friend to writer Aaron Sorkin’s page about his upcoming movie, but I sincerely hope that this post makes up for it.
From an article in Variety comes the news that the movie will be called The Social Network, and here are its cast members (from left to right) and the people who they’re playing:
- Jesse Eisenberg (the upcoming Zombieland) will be playing Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg
- Justin Timberlake will be playing Sean Parker, founding president (and former co-founder of Napster)
- Andrew Garfield (The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, Boy A) will be playing Eduardo Saverin, the ex-co-founder who according to the novel the movie’s based on, fell out with Zuckerberg over money.
Production is starting next month in Facebook’s birthplace of Massachusetts in Boston, and will then move to L.A.
