Justin Timberlake, Zac Efron Jealous Fury Over Robert Pattinson
As reported a few days ago right here on Hollywood Dame, three of Hollywood’s heartthrob actors are teaming up together for an upcoming movie (click HERE for that full story). Titled “Ohio,” it will star Justin Timberlake and Zac Efron in supporting roles, and current “it-boy,” Robert Pattinson, which of whom will be the lead actor. The plot is based on the 1970 tragedy in which anti-Vietnam War protesters at Kent State University were killed. However, whether this movie will ever be made with these three actors has yet to be seen, as its been reported that both Zac Efron and Justin Timberlake are supposedly jealous of “Twilight” star Robert Pattinson. Timberpuss is said to be the most jealous of Sparklepants, and with the size of his ego I’m not surprised that he is. He’s even gone as far as to have his people insisting that he get a ton of screen time to compensate.

“Twilight’s” Robert Pattinson has found a new character to sink his teeth into - but he’s ruffling some big Hollywood feathers in the process! Rob, 22, has been offered the starring role in the upcoming movie “Ohio,” based on the 1970 shooting of anti-war protesters at Kent State University, a source tells Star.
Zac Efron and Justin Timberlake have been approached for smaller parts in the film, but they’re unhappy that they’re not top dog. “Everyone in the industry is shocked that Rob is already getting such big roles. Zac and Justin have been working for a lot longer than he has,” says the source. But don’t expect any fistfights among the actors - most of the action has been behindd the scenes.
“Zac’s people want him to have the lead,” the source notes. “And Justin’s people have asked that he get a lot of screen time.” Sounds like “Ohio” may not be big enough for the three of them!”
Only time will tell if these three men will get along and just make the movie together, or if their egos will end up getting the better of them. Timberlake can sing, but he can’t act his way out of a wet paper bag. Efron is a decent actor, but we’ve really not seen him in much besides the goody-goody Disney movies. Pattinson is a wonderful actor who’s already played a broad range of roles in his career and doesn’t really come across as having much of an ego. I see JT being jealous just because Pattinsons’ career is just starting to shine as his is starting to fade. If this movie does go ahead with the three actors, expect to hear many reports of feuding and problems on set, most likely due to jealousy issues.

You’re really missing out it you haven’t seen any of Rob’s past work. Especially Bad Mother’s Handbook. He’s very talented. Like so many that suddenly enter the spotlight, people turn on them. Too bad for them. Rob is talented and hot and here to stay. Zac is good, and a cutie. Justin, fawget about it!
