Kinda soon but it was DEFINITIVELY inevitable.

http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-20117692-37/casting-about-for-actor-to-play-jobs/?tag=cnetRiver

It was done before but which actor would you consider now for a (no pun intented) reboot of Steve Jobs' biopic?

My 1st Choice would be Timothy Olyphant

      They make movies today almost like they're making a recipe from a cookbook. It's all done so quickly.

        Lemme guess, the Steve Jobs character will triumph over adversity, crush the greedy and fight for justice and goodness.

        It'll prolly be the prototypical Hollywood translation of events. (That is to say, it will only have a very fleeting similarity to any real events)

          That's what I'm talking about, yeah!
          I did like Pirates of Silicon Valley though.

            Ah this is monkey shit. He was a cunt and a partner/subordinate stomper. Then again is Hollywood making apple cider out of anything.

              I thought Noah Wyle did a good gob portraying him in the movie Pirates of Silicon Valley.

              Here it is if you want to watch it.

              He was a total ass in his younger years, but after he got sick and started aging rapidly, he chilled out a lot.

                No he didn't. He was still an asshole. There's reports of him still berating employees and showing up at their homes. The man took credit for something his team of developers created. Fuck Steve Jobs.

                  Maybe the Steve Jobs movie should be done as a comedy. His character could be like Tim Robbins in The Hudsucker Proxy.

                      Like a few people already said, there already was a Steve Jobs movie in the form of Pirates OF Silicon Valley. I watched it in my Intermediate Computer Applications class in High School. It wasn't half bad and it was a neat look at how Apple was founded and the lives of Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and their competitor and founder of Windows, Bill Gates.
