… what, not specific enough for you? Well, here’s the thing: Variety reports that Timberlake is in talks to star in the Peter Sollett–directed rom-dramedy The Last Drop, where he’d play a Vulture blogger restaurant critic for New York Magazine who must give up his love of the drink for his new love, a human woman who is not made of beer. After his fictional employment at GQ in Friends With Benefits, it appears Timberlake is going more highbrow (but not despicable). Can someone clear out a desk for JT?
