Neither David Fincher nor Jesse Eisenberg nor Trent Reznor will be returning for Aaron Sorkin’s so-called “sequel” to the 2010 smash hit The Social Network, and fans are not happy.

Lander was hit with the obstruction charge last September while demonstrating in support of detained immigrants at 26 Federal Plaza in lower Manhattan.
