'The Social Reckoning' Reveals First Look at Jeremy Strong's Mark Zuckerberg at CinemaCon

The film follows Frances Haugen and a Wall Street Journal reporter as they expose Facebook secrets and alleged harms tied to misinformation and political violence.

  • On Monday, filmmaker Aaron Sorkin debuted the trailer for 'The Social Reckoning' at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, presenting his sequel to the 2010 'The Social Network' featuring a whistleblowing storyline.
  • Sorkin's thriller examines Facebook's role in spreading misinformation about the 2020 election and the January 6 Capitol riots, following engineer Frances Haugen as she enlists Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz to expose the corporation's secrets.
  • Oscar-Nominated actor Jeremy Strong portrays an older Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, while Mikey Madison stars as Haugen and Comedian Bill Burr plays an advisor criticizing the platform's 'firehose of bad information.'
  • Sony Pictures executive Sanford Panitch introduced the footage, describing the film as a 'David vs. Goliath' story where Zuckerberg is portrayed as a combative 'free speech absolutist' warning against speaking out.
  • Columbia Pictures will release the film wide on October 9, arriving roughly 16 years after the original 'The Social Network' became a cultural phenomenon earning Oscar nominations and critical acclaim.
