‘The Social Network 2’ Is in the Works With a Script by Aaron Sorkin


Aaron Sorkin's 'The Social Network 2' is in the works, revisiting Mark Zuckerberg's rise and Facebook's complex legacy

Deadline reported on Wednesday, June 25, that after years of searching for an angle to expand his 2010 film, Aaron Sorkin will write and direct The Social Network II for Sony Pictures. Sorkin, who wrote the original screenplay, will reportedly take inspiration from The Facebook Files for the sequel, a series of articles leaked in October 2021 and published by the Wall Street Journal that detailed the inner workings and potential harms of the social media platform. I take our mission really seriously, and we’re here not primarily to just build a company, but to help connect the world… The thing that I found the most interesting about the movie, was that they kind of made up this whole plot line about how I somehow decided to create Facebook to, I think, attract girls.”
