Aaron Sorkin’s directorial debut, The Social Reckoning, has been rejected by the audience. The film was released on October 9. The film has seen a disappointing run at the box office in North America. The film’s number is far behind its predecessor, The Social Network (2010). The Jeremy Strong-starrer has recorded one of the lowest debuts in North American box office history. It has a strong subject matter, but failed to impress the audience in its opening weekend.
The Social Reckoning North America Box Office
On its first Monday, the film dropped to 8th at the US box office, down from 6th in its debut weekend. The film collected just $560K on Monday despite Columbus Day. It saw a 56% drop from its Sunday collection of $1.2 million. The film, which also stars Jeremy Allen White, earned less than projected in its opening weekend, with a total of $4.9 million at the domestic box office. The movie has opened with the lowest numbers, even below Digger‘s $3.5 million Friday opening-day collection.
Compared to The Social Network‘s opening-day gross, it is much lower. For the unversed, The Social Network collected $8 million on its opening day, Friday, at the North American box office. It is more than $6 million less than the predecessor’s opening day gross. The opening weekend of the sequel is also lower than the initially projected range.

Trails Far Behind The Social Network
Interestingly, the 2010 film earned way more than what The Social Reckoning has collected so far. In 4 days, the Social Network starring Jesse Eisenberg earned $24.3 million. Meanwhile, The Social Reckoning earned just $5.5 million in the same time span. This is 77.37% less than what The Social Network earned in the first four days at the North American box office. The latest film is headed for a disastrous end at the box office.
The Social Network has collected $96.9 million in its domestic run. The sequel will not earn anywhere near it. The Social Reckoning follows Frances Haugen, a young Facebook engineer, who enlisted the help of Jeff Horwitz, a Wall Street Journal reporter, to blow the whistle on the social network’s most guarded secrets. The Social Reckoning was released on October 9.
