Amid the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Sarah Ramos launched a social media series that saw her collaborating with other actors to recreate scenes from iconic movies. One of the many actors Ramos teamed up with was Dylan O’Brien, with whom she re-enacted the famous “Social Network” scene where Eduardo Saverin tells Mark Zuckerberg to get a lawyer. While Ramos acted as Zuckerberg and Sean Parker, another character in the film, O’Brien took on the role of Saverin, originally played by Andrew Garfield. “If you haven’t seen my friend @sarahramos’s Instagram series it’s brilliant she’s amazing and she let me be in one … enjoy,” O’Brien wrote on Twitter at the time.

With over two million views and thousands of reactions from fans and colleagues alike, it’s clear that O’Brien and Ramos nailed their re-enactment. “Oscar worthy performances,” one Twitter user commented. This excellent delivery apparently came with a lot of hard work, as O’Brien would later reveal. “I think I sent her 13 takes in a row at one point, and she texted me back saying, “I’m busy editing something,” he told The Hollywood Reporter. He added, “But it was cool to see the response to it, honestly. I made a joke to her; it’s not even a joke really, but I was like, ‘I think you just got me more clout in this industry than I’ve gotten in a decade on my own.'”
