Maybe they should get someone who has Swiss/Syrian -genes. I think Christian Bale looks just too british. And really those Syrian features are what makes Steve Jobs look so charismatic (and I know he was raised by Armenian-American parents, but that doesn't affect your biological looks). The actor wouldnt' have to be Syrian, just an actor with some genes from the middle-east could be fine.
Well, you'd still have to find someone, who would look like him, and who could actually act, but I'm sure there are a lot of half middle-eastern/half european actors trying to make it in Hollywood...
But, then again. Maybe it doesn't matter, what the actor looks like, if he/she can really act. But for some reason all those Jesus-movies, where "caucasian" actors try to be (the most probably) middle-eastern jewish guy, they just feel so fake.
Kutcher's "Jobs" was a rushed and poorly researched money grab in my opinion. It was painful to watch and did a disservice to Jobs and Apple's legacy.
well we were talking about how much kutcher _looked_ like jobs...not how good his acting is.
Sad but true.The same could be said of Walter Walter Isaacson's biography.
Yup, something that hasn't happened is certainly a fail. Not only that but it's another Apple fail too because they have a lot to do with this and have had a lot of fails these days.Another fail...
Yeah, there have clearly just been way too many of those.Not another movie about Steve Jobs![]()
Something like even less interesting and probably less known life of Zuckerberg would be a total failure too as a movie, right?Seriously..wasnt "jobs" enough? I actually found it quite entertaining. Nothing i would pay for at the cinema though.
In the end no matter how much drama you try and squeeze out of Steve Jobs unpredictable and eccentric persona along with his achievements, its not really movie material is it. There are other life storys that are much more fascinating and also entertaining, imo.
Every Steve Jobs movie will fail on a commercial level however fanboys and bale-fans might download it for a hung over sunday afternoon (their girlfriends will not watch it with them).

The movie will not cover that aspect of Jobs' life. I believe it's only up until the iPod.
Didn't the last Jobs movie bomb? Why make another?
The movie Titanic bombed in 1953. Yet in 1997?

I don't think that too many people went to see The Social Network because it was specifically about about Facebook/Zuckerberg. This may be a bit different because Jobs' name will be in the title.

I'd be more than happy to wait until 2057 for another film about Steve Jobs.The movie Titanic bombed in 1953. Yet in 1997?
