CreaseCrusader91 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 MTV Floppy hair? Check. Internet savvy? Check. Less than a year after his death, the life of technology guru and Apple Inc. co-founder Steve Jobs will be honored in an upcoming independent biopic entitled "Jobs" starring Ashton Kutcher. The TV and movie actor, who bears a striking resemblance to a young Jobs, is slated to begin filming the movie in May during his hiatus from "Two and a Half Men." The plan is to begin production before a rival film, based on writer Walter Isaacson's lauded Jobs biography, gets off the ground. Jobs died on October 5, 2011. "Jobs" will be directed by Joshua Michael Stern ("Swing Vote") and will chronicle Jobs' rise from a Northern California hippie upbringing to the co-founding of Apple, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Personally, I thought Stanley Tucci would have been better suited and understand its supposed to be a younger Jobs but Im skeptical if Kutcher can actually pull it off. http://static6.businessinsider.com/image/4d2f40d54bd7c8b036230000-400-300/stanley-tucci-as-steve-jobs-ceo-of-apple.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Stanley Tucci is too old for it. Jobs didn't always look like what everyone remembered him as when he died. Kutcher, on looks, fits the bill. Shame, though, because Kutcher, in reality, sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-Dreamer Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I am still amazed how Steve Jobs is hailed as some sort of genius hero. I somehow doubt this portray of his person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siddious Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I can see it. I dont hate Kutcher that much. I would normally dislike an actor like him but for some reason I dont. I think its because that 70's show was hilarious and I could never dislike anyone from it :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I like Kutcher. He's always been decently funny in his films. He's good in 2.5 men, too, he's just not Charlie Sheen, or that type of character (or person) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
