The Social Reckoning Teaser Trailer
In the newly unveiled teaser trailer, The Social Reckoning explores the events surrounding the Facebook leak that came to light in 2021. The revelations made by Frances Haugen serve as the central narrative of the film, with Anora actress Mikey Madison portraying the role.

Here’s the trailer
The teaser trailer showcases several intense and dramatic moments, including Strong's portrayal of Zuckerberg declaring that he is no longer "the guy from the dorm rooms," acknowledging the vast business empire he has built over the years.
As the controversy surrounding the leak reaches a boiling point, every key figure finds themselves under immense pressure, with the story building toward a decisive resolution. For those unaware, the film is based on the real-life leak of internal Facebook documents that revealed the company (now known as Meta) was aware of the harmful societal effects of its platforms but allegedly continued prioritizing profits over addressing those concerns.
Apart from the lead cast, the film also stars Wunmi Mosaku, Betty Gilpin, Billy Magnussen, Bill Burr, and several others in key roles.
Previously, Aaron Sorkin served as the screenwriter for the 2010 drama The Social Network. Directed by David Fincher, the film was based on Ben Mezrich's 2009 book The Accidental Billionaires and starred Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield, Justin Timberlake, Armie Hammer, and others in pivotal roles.
The film chronicled Harvard sophomore Mark Zuckerberg's creation of Facebook. The narrative alternated between the platform's rapid development in 2003–2004 and the controversies that followed, including allegations from the Winklevoss twins that Zuckerberg stole their idea and his fallout with co-founder Eduardo Saverin, who was ultimately pushed out of the company.
