Sources confirm the actor is in talks to star in “Jobs,” Sony’s biopic about the late Apple co-founder.
Based on Walter Isaacson’s biography “Steve Jobs,” the real-life drama is directed by Danny Boyle and written by Aaron Sorkin.
Scott Rudin will produce along with Mark Gordon and Guymon Casady.
Sorkin has publicly said the movie will be divided into three long scenes, each taking place backstage before one of Apple’s famous product launches.
“The first one being the Mac,” he told the Daily Beast. “The second one being NeXT, after he had left Apple. And the third one being the iPod.”
“It’s a little like writing about the Beatles,” he added. “There are so many people out there that know him and revere him.”
Fincher was supposed to direct this, like he did with the also written by Sorkin The Social Network, but Danny Boyle ain't bad as a replacement..

Boyle is due in town this week to meet with actors and actresses for the movie. Seth Rogen is in discussions to play Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, but no official offer has been made. It is unclear how Bale’s departure will affect casting.
Sources say Bale, after much deliberation and conflicting feelings, came to the conclusion he was not right for the part and decided to withdraw.

Poster from the movie (prop) that depicts Fassbender as Jobs.
Anyway I was reading the script earlier today and it's so boring. The first ten pages or so are non stop bullshit talking by Steve Jobs who thinks the Mac was going to be the most amazing thing ever created by mankind or something?

"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."
I'm more curious to see Alex Gibney's upcoming documentary about Job (his previous works were pretty good, including the recent one about Scientology). Apple fans will probably dislike it though
