EXCLUSIVE: Depending on the news Social network The rest could finally move forward, Aaron Sorkin could already have his goal on the two rising stars to direct the follow -up of his Oscar -winning film. While various elements are still being developed, including a budget, sources say that the best choices of Sorkin to play The social part II are the winner of the Oscars Mikey Madison and the winner of the Emmy Jeremy Allen White.

The initiates point out that no formal offer has been given to one or the other actor, but it is clear that it is his choices to play in the film once these obstacles are overcome. Sony Pictures, which distributes the film, had no comments.

Deadline reported in June for the first time that Sorkin would run and take a sequel after years to determine what angle he wanted to continue for this next chapter by telling the story of Facebook. The new film project is developing with Todd Black, Peter Rice, Sorkin and Stuart Beser producing.

The film is not a straight continuation but rather a follow-up of the original film of 2010 which explored the beginnings of what was going to become the largest social media platform in the world.

Sorkin’s original script for the new film explores the story behind the Wall Street Journal‘s Facebook files By Jeff Horowitz, an explosive series of articles published in October 2021 which exhibited internal functioning – and multiple damages caused by – Facebook. Ideally, White would play Horowitz and Madison would play the whistleblower behind the series of articles.

Since the announcement of this suite, the talent through the city has done everything it can to obtain a meeting with Sorkin, given what the original film has done for its star. As for the man who would play Mark Zuckerberg, we still do not know how much the CEO of the CEO would have in the film, or if Jesse Eisenberg would return to play the role. Eisenberg has obtained an Oscar nomination for his performance in the first film, but the sources always say that it is not clear where things stand with his return.

Released in 2010 by Sony Pictures and based on Ben Mezrich Accidental millionaires,, The social network was a huge success to the public and criticism and gained $ 226 million at the world box office. Nominated for eight Oscars, whose best film, the film won three, including Sorkin for the best suitable script.

Since his release, Sorkin has repeatedly noted his interest in monitoring, but he could not find the right angle. After the events of January 6, 2021, when the American Capitol was attacked, Sorkin found a new inspiration, saying in an interview last year that he thought that Facebook had played a role. Sources point out that the new film is not a film “January 6” and will focus not only on the 2020 elections, but also the effect of Facebook on adolescents, pre-adolescents, violence and countries outside the United States

For Madison, this would mark her first role as a major studio since she won an Oscar for her role as stars in the neon photo Anora. White also has its views of a potential gold trophy this fall while it is ready to play the legend of Rock Bruce Springsteen in the 20th century biopic Springsteen: Delive Me de Nowhere.
