You have to remember 2010 was a much different time. Facebook was still relatively fun and cool. Social media hadn’t completely destroyed the fabric of our society yet, it’s was still mostly a novelty and most people didn’t really know Mark Zuckerberg at all beyond being the guy who made Facebook. Then you have David Fincher who’s one of the most sought-after directors pairing with one of Hollywood’s top writers. Every actor would jump at this opportunity.
Like we knew Mark was a weasely little shit but the problems were mostly contained to the sphere of influence that was a still growing Facebook. The world and political landscape has been completely turned upside down in the preceding 15 years. Mark is a much more dangerous person now than he was then.
It would be foolish to turn down a major role like that just because you don’t like the character it’s based on as long as it’s not glorifying them. It was PERFECT casting and he crushed it, he’s great at playing a cocky asshole
Sure, but he is only just now trying to distance himself. Seems silly when he coud’ve decided this years ago, back when we first realized the shit Facebook got up to in like 2018. Seems a bit late now doesn’t it??

Its not based on a character, it is about a real person.
