(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Justin Timberlake is most excited about his new film Yogi Bear because it can entertain his friends children.

The 29-year-old star voices the character of Boo Boo, Yogi Bears sidekick, in the animated film and he is delighted about the role because he finally has something to interest the offspring of his pals.

Dan Aykroyd plays Yogi and the plot finds he and Boo Boo caught up with a documentary filmmaker who goes to Jellystone Park to shoot a project.

Justin said that up until now, the other films he has starred in and the music he makes has been too inappropriate for his friends to share with their kids, but he hopes to impress them with this latest offering.

The star also revealed that he usually scares young people off with his beard.

"I'm mostly excited that I have friends with children, he told Extra. I haven't really done a movie where I can relate to their kids. Plus, my facial hair frightens them, and my music is a little too explicit."

The actor recently starred in The Social Network, a film based on the founders of social networking site Facebook.

The film has picked up four awards from the National Board of Review and Justin is being reserved about its chances of success at the Oscars, saying the idea is beyond his comprehension.

"You know, I don't really know what to say about any of it because it seems unfathomable on any level," he said. (C) Cover Media
