Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen is drawing fresh attention as a new film, The Social Reckoning, puts her account before the public. Starring Mikey Madison and Jeremy Allen White, the film dramatises her decision to expose Facebook's internal research.

Haugen told reporters 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 moves others to come forward, telling The Verge she wants it to spark a new wave of insiders speaking out.
