Aaron Sorkin is diving back into the world of Facebook with a \u201cSocial Network\u201d follow-up featuring Jeremy Strong<\/a> as Mark Zuckerberg<\/a> and a newly minted Oscar winner as a whistleblower.<\/p>\n

Sony Pictures said Friday that \u201cThe Social Reckoning\u201d will star Mikey Madison<\/a> (\u201cAnora\u201d) as Facebook engineer Frances Haugen<\/a> and Jeremy Allen White<\/a> as then-Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz. Haugen leaked thousands of pages of internal Facebook records to the Journal, yielding a 2021 investigation known as the \u201cFacebook Files.\u201d The series of stories alleged the social media giant was prioritizing profits over safety and hiding its own research from investors and the public.<\/p>\n

Sorkin is writing and directing the \u201cThe Social Reckoning\u201d which is being described not as a sequel to \u201cThe Social Network\u201d but a \u201ccompanion piece.\u201d The studio plans to release the film in theaters in October 2026. Bill Burr has also been cast in an unspecified role.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Social Network,\u201d which Sorkin wrote, and David Fincher directed, was a critical and box office hit, earning over $226 million globally in 2010 and eight Oscar nominations and three wins. Jesse Eisenberg<\/a> played Zuckerberg in the 2010 film, about the litigious origins of the social media site.<\/p>\n

Strong was recently nominated for an Oscar<\/a> for his portrayal of Roy Cohn in \u201cThe Apprentice.\u201d Madison won best actress earlier this year.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
