HAS SORKIN ALREADY CAST HIS LEAD FOR JOBS BIOPIC?

noah wyle as steve jobs

Aaron Sorkin is currently working on the script for Sony's untitled Steve Jobs biopic, after being awarded the gig last month. Since then speculation has been running wild on who will take the lead role. Sony must be spoilt for choice as every actor under the sun must be dying to play the part in an almost certain oscar-bait performance. Even Ashton Kutcher has decided not to wait around and made the bold move of creating his own biopic, entitled Jobs: Get Inspired - sounds like a film that will … [Read more...]

IT’S OFFICIAL – SORKIN WILL WRITE STEVE JOBS BIOPIC

STEVE JOBS BIOPIC FILM WILL BE WRITTEN BY AARON SORKIN

Sorkin has been 'courted' for this gig since Walter Isaacson's Biography of the late Steve Jobs was released back in November 2011. And so speculation has always been that Sorkin was the first pick, but with his commitments to writing and producing the new HBO TV show Newsroom, it was still up in the air as to whether he could spare the time needed for such an important film. It seems that today he's signed on the dotted line with Sony to pen the official script, which is a huge relief, … [Read more...]

KUTCHER’S iJOBS BIOPIC, GETS EVEN WORSE!

As if it wasn't bad enough living in a world were Asshole Kushton gets to make a Steve Jobs biopic, TMZ (see images here) managed to capture some, not so promising, snaps of Kutcher wearing what appears to be the iconic jeans and black turtle neck worn in all of Jobs’s major keynotes.  The problem I have with this is that Jobs only started wearing this uniform around the early 2000’s and if Kutcher’s film is supposed to be set in the early years of Apple, as evidenced by the hairstyle and … [Read more...]

Since I last reported on the Ashton Kutcher’s Steve Jobs biography passion project, working title “Jobs: Get Inspired”, it has now been revealed who will play the Tonto to Kutcher’s Lone Ranger, Robin to his Batman...or in other words Jobs’s partner in crime and Apple co-founder, Steve Wozniak. Josh Gad, star of the Trey & Parker (South Park) smash The Book of Mormon, will take on the role. I’m not sure how well he will do, but when you’re attached to a film with such a high … [Read more...]

NOAH WYLE SHOULD PORTRAY STEVE JOBS, NOT KUTCHER!

STEVE JOBS, NOAH WYLE, ASHTON KUTCHER

I don't know about you, but there's only one person I'd cast in a Steve Jobs biopic, and that is Noah Wyle. The actor, best known for playing Dr. John Carter in ER, played Jobs in a previous film, 1999's Pirates of Silicon Valley - and absolutely nailed the performance. Capturing the mannerisms and look of Jobs so well that even Jobs himself felt compelled to acknowledge him in a humorous publicity stunt, for the Mac-world Expo, that same year. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIClAanU7Os So … [Read more...]
