Johnny Rotten won't settle for anyone less than 'Jason Timberlake', folks.
Timber's Rotten

Justin Timberlake is a hateful, nasty, foulmouthed and violent malcontent... is what some film reviewers might say one day if he takes on his latest potential film role. The 'Lake is being considered for the role of punk godfather, and former Sex Pistols frontman Johnny Rotten, in a new biopic.

And who is considering for this role? Well, none other than Mr Rotten - real name John Lydon, punk swots - himself!

According to IOL.com, John's keen, but isn't sure that Justin is up for the job... or for that matter, what Justin's real name is.

He said: "I've asked Jason Timberlake to do it. He hasn't said yes but I think it would work because he's a damn fine singer. But he's beginning to look bored."

Hmm. There's a compliment in there...somewhere.
