Overview
- A full-length trailer for The Social Reckoning was released this week and gives the clearest look yet at Jeremy Strong in the role of Mark Zuckerberg.
- Aaron Sorkin wrote the screenplay and is directing the film, which is presented as a companion piece to 2010’s The Social Network.
- Mikey Madison is shown as whistleblower Frances Haugen and Jeremy Allen White plays Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz, with supporting roles for Wunmi Mosaku, Betty Gilpin, Billy Magnussen and Bill Burr.
- The trailer shifts the project toward a darker political and journalistic-thriller tone and highlights scenes of congressional testimony, reporter–source interaction, and a striking moment where Zuckerberg is coached on how to nod.
- The film dramatizes the Wall Street Journal’s 2021 Facebook Files and Haugen’s disclosures, a choice that renews debate about how recent real events and living figures should be portrayed on screen.
