Only a couple of years have passed since Ashton Kutcher played Apple founder and legendary tech guru, Steve Jobs, but honestly his performance has largely been forgotten. Now attention has turned to what Michael Fassbender can do in Danny Boyle and Aaron Sorkin's upcoming biopic, and now we're getting the first official look at him in the role.
Forget all of the various set photos flying around, this poster is the first official shot of Fassbender in Steve Jobs. The image is a reproduction of an old ad promoting Jobs' NeXT line of personal computers, developed during the period after he was forced out of Apple. That time will play a part in the film which centers on the product launches for the Mac, NeXT, and IPod.
Also starring Kate Winslet, Seth Rogen, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jeff Daniels, and Katherine Waterston, Steve Jobs opens October 9th. [Sensacine via ThePlaylist]
