\n\tWriter-director Aaron Sorkin<\/a>\u2018s companion piece to The Social Network<\/a> has a new title and a slot on next year\u2019s movie release calendar.<\/p>\n

\n\tSony Pictures<\/a> is set to release the feature now known as The Social Reckoning<\/a> in theaters Oct. 9, 2026. The buzzy cast includes Mikey Madison<\/a>, Jeremy Allen White<\/a>, Bill Burr<\/a> and Jeremy Strong<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\n\tSorkin directs The Social Reckoning from his own script after earning an Oscar for his screenplay for the original 2010 film. The new project centers on a young Facebook engineer named Frances Haugen (Madison) who teams up with Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz (White) on a risky mission to bring attention to the social network\u2019s biggest secrets. <\/p>\n

\n\tTodd Black, Peter Rice and Stuart Besser produce The Social Reckoning alongside Sorkin. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe forthcoming film is set 17 years after the events of The Social Network, which focused on Jesse Eisenberg<\/a>\u2018s lead portrayal of Zuckerberg as he created the social media platform and was later sued by co-founder Eduardo Saverin (Andrew Garfield) and the Winklevoss twins (Armie Hammer).<\/p>\n

\n\tStrong has finalized his deal to play Zuckerberg in The Social Reckoning, portraying an older version of the Meta CEO than viewers saw in the 2010 movie. The Social Reckoning, which hits theaters over the Columbus Day weekend, follows The Social Network in getting released in October, as fall can be a prosperous time for adult dramas.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Social Network collected $226 million at the global box office and landed eight Academy Award nominations, including best picture. Sorkin\u2019s win was among the film\u2019s three trips to the podium. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Writer-director Aaron Sorkin\u2018s companion piece to The Social Network has a new title and a slot on next…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":171157,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[87958,47633,49,48,75,59220,60911,80945,87959,337,989,62706],"class_list":{"0":"post-171156","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-aaron-sorkin","9":"tag-bill-burr","10":"tag-ca","11":"tag-canada","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-jeremy-allen-white","14":"tag-jeremy-strong","15":"tag-jesse-eisenberg","16":"tag-mikey-madison","17":"tag-movies","18":"tag-sony-pictures","19":"tag-the-social-network"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/171156","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=171156"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/171156\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/171157"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=171156"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=171156"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=171156"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
