"The new legal drama TV series "Cupertino" was just announced as part of CBS's 2026-2027 season, as reported by entertainment trade publications Wednesday morning. The show, from Robert and Michelle King of "The Good Wife" and "The Good Fight" fame, is set to star Mike Colter ("Luke Cage," "Evil") as a lawyer whose tech startup employer cheats him out of his stock options."
"Helmed by Aaron Sorkin, "The Social Network" sequel has been titled "The Social Reckoning" and stars "Succession's" Jeremy Strong as Mark Zuckerberg, plus Mikey Madison ("Anora") and Jeremy Allen White ("The Bear"). Strong recently spoke about his role at the Academy Museum Gala last weekend, expressing his excitement about working with writer Aaron Sorkin, but that he's not reached out to former Zuckerberg actor Jesse Eisenberg, stating that Eisenberg's portrayal "has nothing to do with what I'm going to do.""
Thousands of Bay Area tech workers commute to Apple's Cupertino headquarters and a TV series titled Cupertino is slated for 2026.
