One of Hollywood’s biggest writers and show creators, Aaron Sorkin, is getting chummy on Facebook.
Sorkin is in talks about writing a film about the founders of the popular social networking site.
According to Hollywood Reporter, Sorkin broke the news on Facebook when he opened up his own account.
“I understand there are a few other people using Facebook pages under my name — which I find more flattering than creepy — but this is me. I don’t know how I can prove that but feel free to test me,” he wrote before going on to talk about the movie project.
“I figured a good first step in my preparation would be finding out what Facebook is, so I’ve started this page. (Actually it was started by my researcher, Ian Reichbach, because my grandmother has more Internet savvy than I do and she’s been dead for 33 years.)”
Sorkin also asked the Facebook public for any stories relating to the site.
“I feel about this introduction the way I felt about ‘Sophie’s Choice’: It could have been funnier,” Sorkin finished.
