Omnihanded Entertainmet News | Mikey Madison and Jeremy Allen White Lead the Buzz for Social Network 2

The next chapter in the Facebook saga is officially moving forward. The Social Network 2—a follow-up to the critically acclaimed 2010 film—is in development at Sony Pictures, with Aaron Sorkin returning as both writer and director. While not a direct sequel, the film will explore new controversies surrounding the tech giant, including revelations from The Facebook Files published by The Wall Street Journal.

Mikey Madison & Jeremy Allen White Tapped as Sorkin’s Top Picks

Oscar-winner Mikey Madison (Anora) and Emmy-winner Jeremy Allen White (The Bear) have emerged as Sorkin’s top choices to headline Social Network 2. Though no formal offers have been made, sources confirm these two actors are at the top of the wish list. Madison is rumored to play the whistleblower behind the explosive Facebook exposé, while White may portray journalist Jeff Horowitz, who led the investigation.

What Will Social Network Part 2 Be About?

This new installment will center around the real-life Facebook Files, a series of articles that exposed the platform’s damaging effects on users, particularly teens and preteens. While inspired by events like the January 6 Capitol attack and Facebook’s role in global political discourse, sources clarify the film is not focused solely on those incidents.

Will Jesse Eisenberg Return as Zuckerberg?

As of now, it’s unclear whether Jesse Eisenberg will reprise his Oscar-nominated role as Mark Zuckerberg. The size of Zuckerberg’s role in this chapter is still under wraps, leaving fans to wonder how the character will fit into the new narrative.

A Legacy to Live Up To

Released in 2010, The Social Network earned $226 million worldwide and took home three Academy Awards, including Best Adapted Screenplay for Sorkin. With the sequel tackling more recent controversies, Social Network 2 could become just as culturally relevant—and awards-worthy—as its predecessor.

Does Little Nightmares III have cross-play?

If you were hoping to team up with friends for a spooky adventure, you may be out of luck. Little Nightmares 3 doesn’t feature cross-play between different ecosystems. However, it does feature cross-play within different generations of the same ecosystem. Here’s how that works:

PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 users can play together.

Xbox One and Xbox Series X users can play together.

Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 users can play together.

PC players can only play with PC players.

So, while you may not be able to join those on completely different platforms, it’s good to know you can still hit up your friends who have previous generation console and bring them along for the ride.

Even better, Little Nightmares III comes with a Friend’s Pass, which allows you to team up in online co-op with only one copy of the game, similar to games like Split Fiction and It Takes Two. You or a friend buys the game, then the other can join at no cost and play through the journey with you. However, you can only play on that save file with that friend going forward, so you’ll need to start another save file to play the game in single-player.

Does Little Nightmares III have cross-progression?

We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Little Nightmares III also does not support cross-progression features. This means that whichever platform you purchase the game on is the one you’ll need to finish it on. You won’t be able to move your saves between platforms.

Little Nightmares III launches October 10 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC.
