Right after “The Social Network,” this time another movie based on the popular story of Mark Zuckergerg might be on its way. This new movie will be titled as “Mark Zuckerberg and The Found.” However, it will be different from The Social Network in many ways; it is based on a comic-book of the similar name, which isn’t launched in the stores yet!
Bluewater Productions is publishing "Mark Zuckerberg: Creator of Facebook” – A comic-book, which is expected to be released in stores around late December for about $7 only. It was this Friday when Hayden 5 Media, a New York company, made the announcement that it has acquired the rights to turn this yet-to-come comic book into a film. It has produced several music videos, commercials and documentaries about the same story.
Another major distinction of the two, "The Social Network" and "Mark Zuckerberg and The Found," is the later will be totally an animated film, Hayden 5 and Bluewater said in a statement.
The executive producer at Hayden 5, Milos Silber, made the declaration which was pretty clear saying that “This will not be the last retelling of the Marc Zuckerberg story,” and further also said “We’re just aware of the profound impact of Facebook, and with over 500 million users, we’re bound to have an audience." Hayden 5 is hoping to produce this film with the technology of animation drawn over live-action performances, which was also used in an earlier film "A Scanner Darkly," released in 2006. Hayden 5 publicized their goal as “to give the movie a comic book feel.”
In the portfolio of Bluewater, it has published comics about many noticeable celebrities as well, which inclide Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, Betty White and Justin Bieber. This comic, however, is written by Jerome Maida and drawn by Fritz Saalfeld.
Giving some more details Bluewater portrayed their comic book as being focused on how Zuckerberg has been "tempted with unimaginable amounts of money" and had to "deal harshly with people along the way -- many of whom would later feel betrayed.” And further also mention that Zuckerberg's "frustration with women" which "helped spark an idea that would have him dating Victoria's secret models" on his way to being one of the world's youngest billionaires is also highlighted in detail.
