Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen is drawing fresh attention as a new film, The Social Reckoning, brings her story to a wider audience. Starring Mikey Madison and Jeremy Allen White, the film recreates her choice to reveal what the company knew internally.

Haugen said publicly she has "extreme worry" about a change in direction at Meta and believes Zuckerberg is pushing recklessly forward with AI. She said she hopes the film inspires others to act, telling The Verge she wants it to spark a new wave of insiders speaking out.
