Dakota Johnson “100 Percent Had Preconceived Notions” About Justin Timberlake Before Starring in ‘Social Network’ Together

Dakota Johnson is looking back at one of her first film roles, which saw her star opposite Justin Timberlake in The Social Network.

The actress was recently asked during a video interview with Vanity Fair if she had any “preconceived ideas” about the “SexyBack” singer before filming together in the 2010 David Fincher-directed movie.

“Are you kidding? I was just like 19 and straddling Justin Timberlake and like whipping him in the face with my hair,” the Fifty Shades of Grey star said. “100 percent had preconceived notions, but he was lovely and kind and really welcoming for a person that was just a stranger.”

The Social Network featured a dramatized version of how Mark Zuckerberg founded the social networking site that would become known as Facebook and the legal battles that followed. Jesse Eisenberg portrayed Zuckerberg while Timberlake played Sean Parker, founder of Napster and first Facebook president.

“I think that because this was The Social Network and David Fincher, we did this so many times that I’m like, I’m in it. I know it, I know all the lines. It’s still there,” Johnson said of the scene that saw her play a Stanford University student who wakes up with Parker after hooking up.

“We did it so many times that I feel like I remember this and it’s happening now,” the Madame Web actress quipped. “Maybe I was traumatized.”

The Social Network went on to win three Oscars, including best writing for adapted screenplay, best achievement in film editing and best original score.
