who will portray Zuckerberg in upcoming Facebook movie?

Yup, it's true. They're making a movie about Facebook.

Cast searches are underway and a couple of young actors have already been suggested to play Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg

Who would you cast in the role?

For that matter, who would you cast in supporting roles?
Jimmy Wales?
Steve Jobs?
Kevin Rose?
Perez Hilton?

I'm calling... Philip Seymour Hoffman as Robert Scoble

if someone was casting me I'd suggest Jack Black

For Zuckerberg I'd cast the guy who played the Hobbit in Lord of the Rings. Fraggins or Fraggles or what his name was. And Jimmy Wales could be played by the guy who played the other Hobbit. The fatter one. Sammles Gamchi.

As much as I love to hear that Zuckerburg will be portrayed as the thief that he is, I can't see people shelling out $10 bucks to see a "How Facebook Was Founded" movie.

Jeeze Hollywood is even more desperate for original ideas than I thought.

>> the guy who played the Hobbit in Lord of the Rings
Elijah Wood

>> the guy who played the other Hobbit
Sean Astin


really? For Zuckerberg I was thinking more of a Daniel Radcliffe... if he's not available, then Toby Maguire.

For Brett Tabke's cameo appearance I'm seeing... Sam Neil. Second Choice: Bruce Willis.

Now at a second glance at Zuckerberg I have a better idea, they should not make a movie about him but instead cast him for a remake of Pippi Longstocking. All he needs is to grow his hair a little bit.
