Synopsis

"You don't get to make 500 million friends without making a few enemies."

On a fall night in 2003, Harvard undergrad and computer programming genius Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg) sits down at his computer and heatedly begins working on a new idea. In a fury of blogging and programming, what begins in his dorm room soon becomes a global social network and a revolution in communication.

A mere six years and 500 million friends later, Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in history... but for this entrepreneur, success leads to both personal and legal complications.

From director David Fincher and screenwriter Aaron Sorkin, THE SOCIAL NETWORK is produced by Scott Rudin, Dana Brunetti, Michael De Luca, and Cean Chaffin, and based on the book "The Accidental Billionaires" by Ben Mezrich.
