Whether we like it or not, a series of David Fincher’s film “The Social Network” happens definitively. Now, points of sale like Deadline report that Jeremy Strong is the first choice to represent the CEO and founder of Facebook and Meta, Mark Zuckerberg.
As fans of “social network” are well aware, the original film – written by Aaron Sorkin, which is ready to write And Direct the continuation – Cast Jesse Eisenberg as younger Zuckerberg during and beyond his university years, jumping through deadlines to show us both the origin of Facebook and the multiple proceedings that Zuckerberg finally faced from opponents like the Twins Winklevoss (played by Armie Hammer) and former best friends like Eduardo Saverin ( Garfield, a Garfield. Now, years after the film’s release – and in the midst of many controversies surrounding the role and influence of Facebook in society, especially with regard to politics – Strong, which won an Emmy for his performance on the “succession” of HBO and obtained an Oscar nomination in 2025, seems 2025. Also I took a head of the Oscars for playing Zuckerberg).
The deadline was Also The point of sale which reported exclusively the news that the winner of the Emmy Emmy Jeremy Allen White (from “The Bear”) and recently the winner of Oscar and the star of Anora “Mikey Madison turn” The Social Network Part II “, so strong do Join the casting, he is in very good company. Obviously, it is a shame that neither Fincre nor Eisenberg come back, and as huge Fan “social network” which is always crazy to lose the best Oscar for “the king’s speech”, I have my doubts. However, Strong could be one – sorry – strong Choice to represent Zuckerberg.
The rest of the social network is probably a terrible idea, but maybe Jeremy Strong would be good?
Look. I understand. At the risk of looking like a sourpuss, I don’t want to follow “The Social Network” either! The first film is fundamentally perfect, and even if Facebook has made the headlines in the decades since its release – mainly in the wrong direction – no one needs a continuation of this story. But if that will happen, what is, there are two things to note here. The first is that the film probably I do not focus again on Mark Zuckerberg (I could be wrong, but I hope that I am not), which means that Strong would not, like, a bad impression of Jesse Eisenberg. Two, Strong is a very Good actor, and when it comes to playing pompous characters circulating in business nonsense, he has the experience.
In case you have missed this, Strong spent four seasons playing the eldest of Kendall Roy failure on “succession”, a program that has excelled to ensure that its characters speak of their many companies in the most ridiculous and exaggerated way possible. (His “flight costume” inspired by Elon Musk of season 4 certainly comes to mind, but it is far from being the only example of serious Kendall attempts that turn out to be total clowneries.) That actually makes him a Perfect Non-Eisenberg Choice to play Zuckerberg, who is definitively unleashed in nonsense of the business himself. (Remember when he tried to convince us all that his avatars looked horrible were the path of the future?) Strong is, if nothing else, a transformer actor, and he also worked with Sorkin before on “The Trial of the Chicago 7”, so if he takes this role, he knows exactly what he is.
More casting news on “The Social Network Part II” will fall while the film will take shape, and if we learn that Strong plays Zuckerberg, it will probably do a very good job. If you want to watch the first film, “The Social Network” is available to rent or buy on streaming platforms, including Amazon.
