Sorkin's Jobs Biopic Script Will "Think Different"

"The West Wing" creator and "The Social Network" writer Aaron Sorkin's adapted script of author  Walter Isaacson's authorised biography about late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs will give the film a unique narritive.

Talking at the Hero Summit  he says "this entire movie is going to be three scenes, and three scenes only, that all take place in real time."

All three thirty-minute scenes will be "set right before three major product launches." Those three products? The original Macintosh computer in 1984, the NeXT Cube in 1990, and the first generation iPod in 2001.

Sorkin has been meeting with people who knew Jobs. Sorkin says: "I've been able to talk to these people who revere him in spite of the fact that he made all of them cry at one point or another. But he made all of them better at what they were doing."

Mark Gordon, Scott Rudin and Guymon Casady will be producing the as yet uncast film.

The pic called Steve Jobs is not to be confused with the indie "Jobs" that is starring Ashton Kutcher as the tech poineer
