Back in May, the first teaser for Danny Boyle’s take on Apple man Steve Jobs was uploaded to the web. Now here comes trailer 2.0, a more rounded look at the movie and, if we’re honest, the most amazing, full-featured promo anyone has ever debute... Sorry. Got a little Jobs hyperbole on us there.
With a script by Aaron Sorkin based on Walter Isaacson’s biography of the man, Steve Jobs focuses on three big moments in his corporate life: the launch of the Mac; NeXT (which was introduced after he was removed from the company); and the iPod, the game-changing player he spearheaded after his triumphant return.
This new trailer has a lot more of the supporting cast around Michael Fassbender as Jobs: Seth Rogen’s Steve Wozniak questions his contributions to the original development of the early Apple machines, while Kate Winslet plays marketing chief Joanna Hoffman, one of the people who must wrangle Jobs’ deity-sized ego. Katherine Waterston is Jobs’ ex-girlfriend Chrisann Brennan, who confronts him over his negligent parenting of daughter Lisa (Perla Haney-Jardine), and Jeff Daniels is Apple executive John Sculley, who frequently clashed with Jobs.
Will this show the full Steve, unveiling each side, the dark with the light? We’ll have to wait and see, but it certainly isn’t hiding the fact that he could be a chore to work for.
**Steve Jobs **will be out on November 13. Then, the following year, a faster, smoother version of the movie will hit stores and we’ll all be annoyed that we got the original.
