Actor Dakota Johnson recounted her experience working with Justin Timberlake in the biographical drama film 'The Social Network', reported People. 'Are you kidding? I was just like 19 and straddling Justin Timberlake and like whipping him in the face with my hair,' Johnson shared, while discussing her preconceived notions of Timberlake.

'I had a hundred per cent preconceived notions, but he was lovely, kind, and really welcoming to someone who was just a stranger,' she added. '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,' she shared.

Johnson played a Stanford University student in the film. She recalled shooting romantic scenes, saying, 'We did it so many times that I feel like I remember this and it's happening now,' she said, joking, 'Maybe I was traumatized.' Directed by David Fincher and written by Aaron Sorkin, the 2010 film is based on the 2009 book 'The Accidental Billionaires' by Ben Mezrich. It depicts Mark Zuckerberg's founding of Facebook and the ensuing legal battles, reported People.

The film stars Jesse Eisenberg as Zuckerberg, Andrew Garfield as Eduardo Saverin, Justin Timberlake as Sean Parker, Armie Hammer as Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, and Max Minghella as Divya Narendra. (ANI)
