FYI, this story is more than a year old

Facebook has over 60 million members around the world, so there’s the potential for a lot of people to go and see ‘The Social Network’ when it comes out towards the end of the year.

The movie is basically about the founders of Facebook, is directed by David Fincher (Zodiac, Fight Club) and stars Jesse Eisenberg (The Squid and the Whale) as real-life founder, Mark Zuckerberg.

The Social Network is actually based on the book The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook, A Tale of Sex, Monday Genius & Betrayal by Ben Mezrich.

Justin Timberlake plays Sean Parker, the Napster co-founder who became Facebook's founding president.
