Today it started MacWorld 2013and Ashton Kutcher si Josh Gad were present at the opening event to discuss the film JOBS, which will premiere in cinemas on April 19. Kutcher talked about his attempt to reproduce as faithfully as possible Steve Jobs in the film, about the way he guides his investments based on the way the former CEO of Apple acted, but also about many other things. The actors claim that they tried to present as accurately as possible the events in the life of the co-founders of the Apple company, they tried to correct the irregularities, but of course it is impossible to do everything exactly, especially when Steve Wozniak refuse to help you.
Acting is by its very nature faking, you don't really become that person unless you're psychotic," joked Gad. "Working with Ashton, knowing him as a comedic actor and seeing his technical savvy was mind blowing. I remember shooting a scene in the original garage. Ashton came in and saw something in the background on a workbench and said 'this wouldn't have been built for another year, get rid of that. For me, this is an iconic hero and someone I try to emulate when I talk to founders about stuff.
Many details them you can read here, the film is still far from the premiere.
I started reaching out to folks who knew him and worked with him early in his career and late in his career. try to deconstruct who he was. Ashton had already been on board the project for three weeks. I had sat down and talked to the director Josh Sterna about taking on this thing. and I was terrified. Here's a person who's in the public consciousness. Honest to god, my knowledge of Steve Wozniak was Dancing With The Stars...so I didn't know what the hell I was getting into.
