Where is The Social Network cast now?

Based on the beginnings of Facebook and how it was founded, The Social Network was released on October 1, 2010.

The screenplay was rooted in the account given by Ben Mezrich in his 2009 book The Accidental Billionaires.

Stories involving real-life figures Mark Zuckerberg, Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, Sean Parker, Eduardo Saverin, and Divya Narendra were a part of the book.

In order to bring the bestseller to the big screen, director David Fincher and screenwriter Aaron Sorkin sought to cast actors to portray the aforementioned entrepreneurs and their likenesses.

Jesse Eisenberg takes on the role of Facebook co-founder Zuckerberg.

Prior to starring in one of the lead roles in The Social Network, moviegoers recognized him for Zombieland and M Night Shyamalan’s The Village.

Since playing Zuckerberg, Jesse went on to experience even greater success with parts in Now You See Me, Rio, and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

In 2017, he married his longtime girlfriend Anna Strout and the two welcomed their first child together earlier that year.

In 2022, he made his directorial debut with the comedy-drama When You Finish Saving the World.

Starring Julianne Moore and Finn Wolfhard, Eisenberg’s first film as a director premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on Thursday, January 20.

Mezrich’s main editorial consultant and Zuckerberg’s former Harvard classmate, Eduardo Saverin, was played by Andrew Garfield.

Before he was cast in the project, Garfield was already a BAFTA Award-winning actor.

Similar to Eisenberg, Garfield saw even wider recognition after the movie was released.

Since The Social Network, he went on to win a Tony and a Golden Globe.

One of his most well-known roles is that of Spider-Man, he took on the part again alongside Tobey MacGuire and Tom Holland in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

On April 27, 2022, the Emmy-nominated star revealed he was taking a break from acting.

The Eyes of Tammy Faye actor told Variety: “I’m just so fortunate and I am going to take a break though.

“I’m going to rest for a little bit again I need to recalibrate and reconsider what I want to do next and who I want to be and just be a bit of a person for a while.”

Facebook’s first president Sean Parker is portrayed by former NSYNC singer Justin Timberlake.

Timberlake followed up The Social Network with parts in Trolls and Inside Llewyn Davis.

In May 2022, he played a guest role in his wife Jessica Biel’s crime drama Candy.

Jessica starred as the titular Candy Montgomery and Timberlake had a part as a police detective.

The married pair have two children together, sons Silas and Phineas.

In The Social Network, Armie Hammer portrayed two other of Zuckerberg’s former Harvard classmates, Winklevoss twins Tyler and Cameron.

Following the popularity of the motion picture, Armie and his fame rose even further thanks to his credits in Call Me By Your Name, Death on the Nile, and Mirror Mirror.

However, his career became riddled with scandal due to allegations of cannibalism and sexual assault by Effie Angelova and his ex-girlfriends Courtney Vucekovich, Jessica Ciencin Henriquez, and Paige Lorenze.

The fallout from the cannibalism and sexual misconduct claims are the basis of the Discovery+ documentary House of Hammer, available on Friday, September 2.

Armie has two children with his estranged wife, Elizabeth Chambers.

In the wake of The Social Network, Marylin Delpy’s actress Rashida Jones attained even more stardom as well.

In August 2018, she welcomed a baby boy named Isaiah with her longtime boyfriend and Vampire Weekend lead singer Ezra Koenig.

In 2019, she won a GRAMMY Award for her Netflix documentary named after her father, Quincy Jones.
