VentureBeat: After mounting a campaign earlier this year to burnish the legend of Steve Jobs, Apple insiders will likely be tearing out what’s left of their hair when a new biopic is released in October. The first official trailer released for “Steve Jobs” depicts the legend in full jerk mode. Humiliating employees, alienating cofounder Steve Wozniak, and denying paternity of his daughter, Lisa. Starring Michael Fassbender as Jobs and Seth Rogen as Wozniak, every frame of the two-minute trailer shows us an arrogant, smug Jobs. The portrayal shouldn’t be surprising given that the script was written by Aaron Sorkin and is based on Walter Isaacson’s biography of the Apple guru.
