Aaron Sorkin has returned to the franchise as both the writer and director after winning the Academy Award for the best adapted screenplay for The Social Network. When the trailer premiered at CinemaCon earlier this year, Aaron explained why he needed to make a sequel to the 2010 drama. 'There isn’t a life that Facebook’s algorithm hasn’t touched, and that influence has shaped everything. So it’s time to say more,' he said. Jesse Eisenberg played Mark in the original, and even earned an Oscar nomination for the impressive performance. However, last year the actor said he has zero interest in being associated with Facebook or Meta. During an interview with BBC Radio 4 released, the filmmaker spoke out against the mogul while he was promoting his Oscar-nominated movie A Real Pain.'I haven't been following his life trajectory, partly because I don't want to think of myself as associated with somebody like that,' he explained in a clip shared online by the BBC.

'I don't think like about, "Oh I played the guy in the movie."'He continued: 'It's just I'm a human being and you read these things and these people have billions upon billions of dollars, more money than any human person has ever amassed.'What are they doing with it?
