"No one sees the world the same way you do." Wow! Universal has debuted the first trailer for the Steve Jobs movie, directed by Danny Boyle, starring Michael Fassbender as Jobs, and it's quite something to behold. In fact, if you're been anxiously awaiting this, you might as well hold your breath - it's only about 60 seconds long. Remember, this is the film with the Aaron Sorkin screenplay, supposedly taking place in 3 distinct scenes, one of them being the iPod unveiling which I believe this cheering moment might be from. Fassbender plays Steve Jobs and we get a good look at him. The cast includes Kate Winslet, Seth Rogen, Katherine Waterston and Jeff Daniels. I'm really, really looking forward to this - great first look so far.
Here's the first official trailer for Danny Boyle's Steve Jobs, first found via Collider:
Steve Jobs is directed by Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionaire, 127 Hours) and written by Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network, "The West Wing"). Set backstage at three iconic product launches, beginning with the Mac in 1984, moving through the NeXT in 1997 and ending in 1997 with the unveiling of the iPod, the film aims to take audiences behind the scenes of the digital revolution to paint an intimate portrait of the brilliant man at its epicenter, Steve Jobs (Michael Fassbender). The film also stars Seth Rogen, Jeff Daniels, Michael Stuhlbarg, Katherine Waterston and more. Universal will release Steve Jobs starting October 9th this fall.

Agree. Sorkin can do no wrong.

Awesome! This has the makings of being really great. I'm interested in the casting of Fassbender and want to see how he handles the accent though, because slipping in and out of the American accent has been a weakness of his for awhile, and I'd imagine it would be difficult to do with Sorkin's quick, snappy dialogue. I'll definitely be seeing it mainly because I love Boyle's directing. As far as the trailer goes, the loud noise building and building followed immediately by a smash cut to silence is a bit annoying. I know it's supposed to give me goosebumps but it feels a bit overplayed and gratuitous. Since I saw Gravity I'm noticing that more and more in movies and trailers. Just saw Ex Machina and It Follows recently and both did it several times where it wasn't needed and took out of the scenes. Very very small nitpick.

this is an incredible piece. I'm a huge fan of teasers like this and batman v superman with V/O running the story and showing only key visuals. Sadly if this becomes the trend though, I will be bored with it very soon.

I never liked steve jobs, but I like Fassbinder. So, this might be on my list to watch ... And yeah, Danny Boyle also helps with the decision ...

They should do a fictionalized twist, where jobs comes back as a robot with access to everyone's iCloud data. He takes over the world by blackmailing people with naked pics and downloading U2 songs to everyone's phones....

Should the last on be 2001? They didn't unveil to ipod in 1997. It was released in 2001, so did they announce it 4 years before then.

JOBs was not that interesting in REAL life. A committed systems designer, ----------------psychopath level technocrat, -----------------------RED CHINA handover agent, -----------------------------------and confirmed EUGENIST. And now done 3 times over? BLLLUH
