The upcoming Steve Jobs Movie Cast is set to star Christian Bale, sources confirmed via Variety.
The "Dark Knight", oscar-winning actor has starred in numerous breakout films, and fans cannot be more excited for this upcoming movie since he will be playing an iconic character yet again.
The upcoming biopic is based on the life of Apple's late Chief Executive Officer, Steve Jobs, who died of pancreatic cancer and left everyone in great grief. The movie will be directed by Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionaire, The Beach, 28 Days Later) and will be written by Aaron Sorkin (A Few Good Men, The American President, Studio Sixty on the Sunset Strip). The movie will also be produced by Scott Rudin (The Social Network, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, No Country for Old Men), Mark Gordon (Criminal Minds, Grey's Anatomy, Saving Private Ryan), and Guymon Casady (Hope Springs, The Killing Room, Paper Man).
The Steve Jobs Movie Cast news is backed up by Variety. According to the site: "Sorkin has publicly said the movie will be divided into three long scenes, each taking place backstage before one of Apple's famous product launches. 'The first one being the Mac,' he told the Daily Beast. 'The second one being NeXT, after he had left Apple. And the third one being the iPod. It's a little like writing about the Beatles, there are so many people out there that know him and revere him.'"
Also according to reports, Leonardo DiCaprio who almost bagged his own Oscar awards after his performance with The Wolf of Wallstreet, was another option before producers ultimately went with Christian Bale. Leo reportedly turned down the offier due to rumors that he wants to take time off from acting.
