A new one minute trailer for Aaron Sorkin and Danny Boyle's upcoming "Steve Jobs" film has hit American airwaves, providing eager viewers with another glimpse of Michael Fassbender in his role as Apple's mercurial cofounder.
The new trailer shows different cuts of many of the same scenes previewed in July. It opens with the original Mac introduction and closes on a later event toward the end of Jobs's second tenure at Apple.
Also shown are co-stars Seth Rogen, Jeff Daniels, and Kate Winslet. Rogen plays Apple cofounder Steve Wozniak, Daniels stars as former Apple CEO John Sculley, and Winslet portrays ex-Mac marketing chief Joanna Hoffman.
The script, penned by The West Wing's Aaron Sorkin, is based on Walter Isaacson's biography of Jobs. Isaacson was personally selected by Jobs for the task, though many close to Jobs have taken issue with Isaacson's book since Jobs's death.
Directing duties fall to Slumdog Millionaire's Danny Boyle. The film will hit theatres on Oct. 9.

Clearly this is all Sorkin's fantasy drama.

Knew Steve Jobs personally, did you?
I think I'll wait for the opera version...

I'm sure this will just contribute to the load of crap people believe about Jobs now. Won't be surprised if Movie Jobs goes on some invented anti charity rant too, that's a common refrain now.
