Only days after announcing her split from longtime boyfriend Justin Timberlake, Jessica Biel is reportedly getting quite close to her Playing the Field costar Gerard Butler.

According to Us Weekly, the newly single 29-year-old actress and 41-year-old 300 star were first seen together while at a Field crew member's birthday celebration at a Japanese restaurant on March 15.

"When Gerry got there, he made a beeline for Jessica," a source claims. "He was really flirting with her."

Then, two nights later, Biel and Butler were reportedly seen guzzling margaritas at a Mexican restaurant -- and they went on to share two more meals later that week! Is it a rebound romance, or just buddies from work grabbing some grub?

A source close to Biel claims she "only wants to be friends."

Time (and tabloids) will tell whether these two are anything more than flirtatious friends!
