Sixteen years ago, David Fincher wowed audiences with the dorm-room origin story of Facebook with “The Social Network.” The movie would go on to earn eight Oscar nominations and three wins and make stars out of Jesse Eisenberg as its creator, Mark Zuckerberg, and Andrew Garfield as Zuck’s former friend and collaborator, Eduardo Saverin.

Now, Aaron Sorkin, who won an Oscar for penning “The Social Network” script, is taking on the writing and directing duties for the movie’s follow-up, “The Social Reckoning.” In this movie, things have changed dramatically for Zuckerberg (this time played by Jeremy Strong), as Facebook has grown into one of the most influential companies on the planet.

But the company has some dark secrets.

Oscar winner Mikey Madison plays Facebook engineer Frances Haugen, who has put her trust in Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz, played by Jeremy Allen White, to expose the company’s internal research and decision-making.

Sorkin based the script on The Wall Street Journal’s expansive investigative series The Facebook Files, which delved into the social network’s impact on youth mental health, misinformation, and the January 6, 2021 Capitol attack.

Sony will release the movie on October 9.
