The Social Network was released in 2010 by Sony Pictures and grossed more than $226 million worldwide. Many consider it to be the best movie thus far of the 21st century.

Nominated for eight Oscars including Best Picture, the film won three… including Sorkin for Adapted Screenplay, Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross for Original Score and Kirk Baxter and Angus Wall for Film Editing.

The movie starred Jesse Eisenberg as Zuckerberg, along with Rooney Mara, Andrew Garfield, and Armie Hammer. It’s seriously awesome.

The story of the sequel will focus on how the company’s own reporting pointed to the negative effects the its social media was having on teens and kids, how it knew misinformation was proliferating and causing violence.

Also? How it contributed to the violent insurrection of January 6, 2021.

We can’t wait.
