Steve Job's Biopic to Hit Theaters on Apple's 37th Anniversary

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the Steve Jobs biopic called "jOBS" is expected to hit theaters on April 19th, which is the 37th anniversary of the founding of the Apple computer. Ashton Kutcher stars in this film as the genius, billionaire, computer powerhouse Steve Jobs. The biopic, directed by Joshua Michael Stern and written by Matthew Whitely, chronicles the life of Steve Jobs from his early days as a college dropout, to later in his life as one of the most respected and revered entrepreneurs of the 20th century. Before it hits the big screen, "jOBS" will make its worldwide debut on January 25th as the closing-night film of the Sundance Film Festival in Park City.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm actually pretty excited for this film. I, personally, don't own an apple computer but I've always found Steve Jobs to be a great role model for aspiring entrepreneurs. He truly did change the world with his ideas so I'm very curious to see this movie just to find out what his upbringing was like to being one of the greatest inventors, and masterminds, of the technological world. The thing about this movie is that I'm not sure if Ashton Kutcher is the right person to play Steve Jobs. I think Ashton Kutcher is a phenomenal actor; he has been in some of my favourite movies. I just don't think he looks enough like Steve Jobs (picture right above). I guess we'll just have to wait until April 19th to see if Five Star Institute and Silver Reel picked the right person for the job.

Do you guys think Ashton Kutcher is the right person to play Steve Jobs? Let me know in the comments below!
