JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE ENJOYS FILMING IN HOMETOWN

Justin Timberlake filmed his role in Black Snake Moan in his hometown of Memphis.

Justin Timberlake plays a discharged Iraq soldier who not only has to handle his own inadequacies but also accept his girlfriend’s dangerous sexual appetite in Black Snake Moan.

The film was shot in Justin’s hometown of Memphis, Tennessee which he says provided an authentic southern flavoring to the story.

“You have to shoot this movie in Memphis. It has to be told from a Memphian’s or Southern person’s perspective as far as the director and it doesn’t hurt to have actors from Chattanooga and Memphis. You know what I mean? I think that the Tennessee link between Craig, myself and Sam, all the crew and everybody working. This movie is getting made a Southern way and I think it’s having an effect on everyone’s performances as well.”

Justin says when it comes to being on location, there’s no place like home.

“It’s good, it’s fun. I highly recommend it to all your actors out there. Get a supporting role in a film where you can film in your hometown and you get to hang out with all your family and friends and it’s been great.”

Justin’s next acting project is the voice of Artie, Fiona’s rebellious cousin and rightful heir to the throne to the land of Far, Far Away in Shrek The Third.
