Nearly two years after his death, Apple co-founder and CEO Steve Jobs is getting a film based on his life.
We recently got the first trailer for the film and it looks like it could be good. The film and story remind me a lot of 2010’s The Social Network, about Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg. But with a relatively new filmmaker in Joshua Michael Stern and Ashton Kutcher (who definitely looks the part but I’m not sure if he has the acting chops) playing the title role, my excitement level isn’t quite as high. The cast surrounding Kutcher is quite good, however, with James Woods, Dermot Mulroney, Josh Gad, Matthew Modine and J.K. Simmons.
Jobs hits theaters on August 16.
