The Social Network tells the dramatized story of the founders of Facebook, the number one social-networking site that was launched in 2004.

The film premiered nearly three weeks ago, and since then many BitTorrent users have been waiting for a decent pirated copy to appear online.

Yesterday, the waiting was over and tens of thousands of people immediately fired up their torrent clients to grab a leaked DVD Screener of the movie.

David Fincher’s The Social Network, an adaptation from Ben Mezrich’s book Accidental Billionaires, enjoyed its theater premiere at the start of October.

Casting searches are already underway for the upcoming Facebook movie, “The Social Network” (a working title), says one report.

More than 200 million of us are active Facebook users, but will that social networking addiction convert to a blockbuster movie?

Columbia Pictures sure hopes so, as it advances its plan to bring Facebook’s founding story to the big screen.
