The Future of Hollywood Leading Men
and Women

Justin Timberlake

(29 years old; this generation’s Nicolas
Cage)
Obviously,
everyone knows who he is, but he is very scarcely recognized
as a good actor. His characters right now are circling
around sort of early Matthew McConaughey territory, but
Timberlake has much more talent than him.
The Social Network
is getting him raves. Anyone who has seen
Black Snake Moan
knows that he has an irresistible energy that he emits on
screen. He obviously has a great comedic talent, as is
always shown on
SNL
and other places. This may surprise some people, but
Timberlake actually gives the best performance in
Alpha Dog.
He is the emotional core of the film and a presence on
screen that is impossible to shake. He is a born performer,
and if he continues to act in good films, he could be among
the great leading men of the next generation. The comparison
to Nicolas Cage is simply an acknowledgement of his
effortless scene-stealing, comedic timing, strange film
choices, and potentially wounded and tragic characters that
he could absolutely nail if given the opportunity. Cage was
similarly typecast until
Leaving Las Vegas.
Perhaps Timberlake’s persona redefining is
The Social Network.
Another comparison I came up with was Frank Sinatra. This is
a testament to the career path that Timberlake is
attempting: one of the biggest musical artists of his time
turning into a serious actor and box office star. Seriously,
that is the level of talent that Timberlake has on screen.
