The new film tells the story of Frances Haugen, played by Oscar-winner Mikey Madison, a Facebook engineer who leaked damning internal documents that show the company and its billionaire founder knew how harmful its platform was to society as a whole.
Where Fincher's film focused in on Zuckerberg and his journey to build Facebook, as well as his many, many legal battles along the way, Sorkin's film focuses on Haugen and Wall Street Journal writer Jeff Horwitz who broke the story back in 2021 as well as the ongoing ramifications for Facebook.
The Social Reckoning will be releasing in the UK very shortly. Read on to find out all you need to know about how and where to watch it.
The film will only be available in cinemas, for now, but there's not long to wait as it releases on the Friday 9 October.

I don’t want to be associated with that character."
