MySpace Creative Director and former pop star Justin Timberlake is to star in new Coen Brothers movie, ‘Inside Llewyn Davis’, according to Variety. Sometimes I wonder if his heart’s really in this whole making MySpace less shit lark.

The film is based on the 1960s folk scene in New York’s Greenwich Village. Although a fictional story, Llewyn Davis, who will be played by Oscar Isaac, is based on real life musician Dave Van Ronk, a key figure in that scene and a close friend of Bob Dylan. Timberlake will play a mentor to the lead character.
