After teasing a potential sequel to his Oscar-winning drama The Social Network for years, Aaron Sorkin looks to have found an angle to tackle for his follow-up film. Sources tell Deadline that Sorkin has been set to direct The Social Network Part II for Sony Pictures. Insiders say that while it’s being called part two, it’s not a straight sequel but rather a follow-up to the original movie that explored the origins of what would become the world’s biggest social media platform.

The new film project is in development with Todd Black, Peter Rice, Sorkin and Stuart Besser producing.

I hope they get Jesse Eisenberg back to play Zuck, he does a great job in the first one. You can tell because you hate his fluffing guts from start to finish!

Absolutely, I'm not sure who else could believably play him. Jesse Eisenberg is made for this role lol
