"Social Awakening": Aaron Sorkin Makes Zuckerberg Less Cool
2026-10-10 00:36:55
According to CoinMeta, Aaron Sorkin explores Zuckerberg's transformation in the new film "The Social Revolution." Sorkin won an Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay for "The Social Network," but as controversies surrounding Facebook continued, his thoughts on a sequel gradually changed. Sorkin stated that it was not until he met Francis Hogan, the product manager behind Facebook, that he found inspiration for the next chapter of the story. Hogan resigned after the 2020 elections and leaked tens of thousands of internal documents that revealed the truth about how Facebook algorithms spread false information. The new film is not a direct sequel but rather showcases the tremendous changes that have occurred to Zuckerberg and Facebook over 16 years. Sorkin views this film as a warning about the dangers of social media and calls for greater regulation of powerful tech companies.
