One of the most difficult projects to produce is the supposedly upcoming biopic of iconic tech pioneer and founder of Apple Steve Jobs. The first point of difficulty is that one already exists, a quick fix 2013 release starring Ashton Kutcher is the titular role. This ideally more polished version began with David Fincher (Seven, Fight Club, Gone Girl, The Curious of Benjamin Button) directing and The Social Network’s Aaron Sorkin writing. Both Fincher and potential star Leonardo Di Caprio (Inception, Titanic, The Departed) dropped out before Danny Boyle (28 Days Later, Slumdog Millionaire, 127 Hours, Trainspotting) boarded. Since then Ben Affleck (Argo), Matt Damon (Saving Private Ryan) and Bradley Cooper (Guardians of the Galaxy) got a mention but it was Christian Bale (The Dark Knight, American Hustle) who signed on but then dropped out.
Michael Fassbender is now set to join. Oscar nominated star of X-Men: First Class and 12 Years a Slave is negotiating with Sony to play Jobs while Seth Rogen (Knocked Up) is an inspired casting as co-founder Steve Wozniak. Jessica Chastain (Interstellar, Zero Dark Thirty) is also in the running for an unspecified role.
