The singer turned actor will begin working on the film this fall and winter in Boston and Los Angeles. He will take on the role of Sean Parker, co-founder of Napster and Founding President of Facebook.

Justin says movie is a “behind the scenes” look at the founding of the popular website. How has Justin been prepping for the role? “I’ve been doing research about the film. I’m starting to creep on a little bit more see what it’s all about,” he explains.

"The Social Network" also stars “Zombieland’s” Jesse Eisenberg as Mark Zuckerberg, who founded Facebook while attending Harvard. He is currently CEO and President of the company.

Taylor Swift To Host & Perform On SNL

Taylor Swift will host SNL on November 7! "I've been thinking about skit ideas for a long time," Swift told the Associated Press. "There are definitely some hilarious things that have happened to me over the past couple of months that I think will be pretty substantial skits."

Not only will Taylor host but she will perform as well. "Of course I've been such a fan for a long time, but I've gone back and re-watched everything over the past couple of months and digital shorts would be so much fun to do, because they've been done so well," she said. "Andy Samberg is hilarious."

You'll have to wait a few weeks to see Taylor on Saturday Night Live, but she will be performing on Dancing with the Stars on October 27.
