According to Variety magazine, Timberlake will portray Napster co-founder and Facebook president Sean Parker.  Garfield will portray Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin while Eisenberg will play the other co-founder Mark Zuckerberg. 

This isn’t Timberlake’s first attempt at non-fiction movies. 

Timberlake convincingly portrayed Frankie Ballenbacher in the 2006 film “Alpha Dog,” which is about convicted murderer Jesse James Hollywood.

Actor Kevin Spacey will serve as the film’s executive producer, and the script was written by “West Wing” creator Aaron Sorkin.
