If you missed the biopic jOBS in 2013, which featured Ashton Kutcher as the late Steve Jobs, you’ll have another chance to get a big screen behind the scenes look at the life of the Apple founder. STEVE JOBS is written by Aaron Sorkin, and at one point was going to be directed by David Fincher. Danny Boyle took over the project, which stars Michael Fassbender as Jobs, Seth Rogen as Steve Wozniak, Kate Winslet as former Macintosh Marketing Chief Joanna Hoffman, and Jeff Daniels and former Apple CEO John Sculley. Universal Pictures has unveiled a new trailer, which is much meatier than the teaser trailer, and it gives us a strong idea of what to expect. I love Danny Boyle’s films, so I’m sure this will at the very least be visually stunning. Add Fassbender to the mix and you’ve got my ticket money right now. Check it out and tell us your thoughts in the comments.

Set backstage at three iconic product launches and ending in 1998 with the unveiling of the iMac, Steve Jobs takes us behind the scenes of the digital revolution to paint an intimate portrait of the brilliant man at its epicenter.

Steve Jobs is directed by Academy Award® winner Danny Boyle and written by Academy Award® winner Aaron Sorkin, working from Walter Isaacson’s best-selling biography of the Apple founder. The producers are Mark Gordon, Guymon Casady of Film 360, Scott Rudin and Academy Award® winner Christian Colson.

Michael Fassbender plays Steve Jobs, the pioneering founder of Apple, with Academy Award®-winning actress Kate Winslet starring as Joanna Hoffman, former marketing chief of Macintosh. Steve Wozniak, who co-founded Apple, is played by Seth Rogen, and Jeff Daniels stars as former Apple CEO John Sculley. The film also stars Katherine Waterston as Chrisann Brennan, Jobs’ ex-girlfriend, and Michael Stuhlbarg as Andy Hertzfeld, one of the original members of the Apple Macintosh development team.

STEVE JOBS opens October 9, 2015
