Guest EXPAT Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Social media maven Ashton Kutcherhas been tapped to star as Apple creator Steve Jobs in an independent film titled Jobs , his rep confirms to Gossip Cop . The biopic will chronicle “Jobs from wayward hippie to co-founder of Apple, where he became one of the most revered creative entrepreneurs of our time,” says Variety . Jobs is slated to go into production in May when Kutcher is off from shooting “Two and a Half Men.” What do you think about this casting?

Members BigK Posted April 3, 2012 Members Share Posted April 3, 2012 Good choice. Will see if he can play it straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I think he is a much better actor than people think. I think this is an inspired choice. It will be interesting to see how they handle this book because there are so many elements in the book that were unflattering to Steve Jobs and having a book is one thing but putting it on the big screen will bring it much more to the forefront for the many that would never read that Isaacson book. It will be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hitoallusa Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Well I think someone fresh or unknown would have been a better choice but it's just my opinion. I have this image of him in the 70s show and whenever I see him I can't take him seriously.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FourAces Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I like the casting choice. He slightly looks like a younger Jobs and with make up I'm sure he can pull off an older version as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JKane Posted April 4, 2012 Members Share Posted April 4, 2012 Seems to me it's already been done, was quite good, and that given their lives after Gates is clearly the better man... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Here is a picture of Ashton Kutcher on set this week playing Steve Jobs. Looks like a pretty good match. I hope the movie is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
