Steve Jobs Biopic Set For Aug. 16 Release


Recommended Posts

Open Road Films will release JOBS ? the highly anticipated film chronicling the story of Steve Jobs? ascension from college dropout to one of the most revered creative entrepreneurs of the 20th century ? nationwide on August 16, 2013. JOBS details the major moments and defining characters that influenced Steve Jobs on a daily basis from 1971 through 2001. The film plunges into the depths of his character, creating an intense dialogue-driven story that is as much a sweeping epic as it is an immensely personal portrait of Steve Jobs? life. Directed by Joshua Michael Stern, written by Matthew Whiteley, JOBS was shot by Oscar-winning cinematographer Russell Carpenter and produced by Mark Hulme. JOBS stars Ashton Kutcher, Dermot Mulroney, Josh Gad, Lukas Haas, J.K. Simmons and Matthew Modine.

That's a bit quick. I'm used to release dates being like a year or later to being announced to be released.

Heard of the film, sounds good but to be honest can never take Ashton Kutcher that serious.

What's so quick about this? The movie started production in June 2012.

Yeah but usually studios announce their release dates a a year in advance, not a few months before it's out.

It looks pretty good - I'd only really want to see it if I knew it was pretty much what happened in the early days of Apple though rather than it being largely made up. Lots of bits in the film seem to ring true from Job's autobiography though so... probably a good sign :)
