Going from Matt Damon/Edward Norton to Ben Affleck/Justin Timberlake is quite a big downstep. Ben Affleck is ok but come on Timberlake?

Timberlake actually isnt a bad actor. He does a pretty good job in Alpha Dog and In Time

meh, this was probably a level but I think he did well in both those movies. Still think its a downstep from the original guys but most guys would be hard pressed to hold a candle against damon or norton.

I've got a really bad feeling about this... It could be a great film, but will still probably end up making online poker look totally degen.

I thought Justin Timerberlake had little to no talent as a singer. But he is actually decent as an actor. Also... pretty funny on SNL.

Dicaprio as Damon
Casey Affleck as Norton
Samuel Jackson as the Russian

I remember seeing Timberlake in something and I thought he would be lame but he is an ok actor. Can't remember the film or anything but I do remember thinking "oh wtf this generic human commercial product is in this?" and then thinking "well as much as I want to find fault he is not bad"

That roll really fitted him though. Maybe a degenerate gambler will fit him well (pretty sure he's going to play a degen), but I'm not too sure. He will play the confident parts great, but I don't know wether he has the downfall in him.

Affleck hasn't been good in a good movie since Dogma, yes Dogma

Timberlake being in this movie is great news, he is a big name and anything that helps poker become more mainstream and more in the public eye is +ev IMO.

Lol @ ppl who doubt Timberlake's or Affleck's ability. Anyone in poker should be happy that the game is going to be represented by these two as opposed to some up and coming noob.

Very excited to see this. Thanks OP
