On the news that Christian Bale is set to play Steve Jobs in the upcoming Sony biopic from screenwriter Aaron Sorkin, GadgetLove just share the image above showing what Bale might look like as a young Jobs. We put the original photo of Steve Jobs on the left for comparison.
Sorkin said in an interview earlier today that Bale didn’t audition for the role, but that he thought the actor would be perfect for the difficult role.
Of course a lot of people can look “exactly like a young Steve Jobs” when you Photoshop their face into the original photo.
Great director (one of my favorites), great actor (highly regarded, love his work) but a terrible script writer. I have zero anticipation for this movie based entirely on Sorkin’s involvement.
