The three story scenes in the movie (Macintosh released in 1984, NeXT Computer released in 1988, and iMac released in 1998) were shot in 16mm film, 35mm film and digital format respectively, symbolizing It reflects the evolution and development of Apple products and technology, and also reflects the self-evolution of Jobs from Reckless Upstart to Visionary Leader.
The original plan was to direct the film by David Fincher, but it fell through because Fincher's asking price for the film was too high ($10 million) and required full control of the film. Fincher wanted Christian Bale to play Jobs. After Danny Boyle took over the film, he contacted Leonardo DiCaprio as the starring role, but Xiao Li and Batman refused to star in Jobs: Xiao Li is going to shoot Wilderness Hunter (If I can’t get the Oscar again this year, I guess there will be a lot of complaints. ), Bale feels that he is not suitable for this role. Finally, this role fell on Michael Fassbender.
The film’s audition did not use any of Aaron Sorkin’s scripts. Instead, the actors read and performed scenes from "The Newsroom".
Woz, one of the founders of Apple, served as a consultant for the film.
In order to play the role of Woz, Seth Rogen has made a lot of contact with Woz himself, and also researched a lot of information on the Internet, including Woz's keynotes, speeches, and videos. Rogen admitted that he didn't know who Woz was before participating in the film.
Since the film is divided into three separate story scenes, the shooting is also carried out in the chronological order of these three scenes: first rehearse "Scene 1" for two weeks, then shoot "Scene 1" for two weeks, and then rehearse "Scene 2" for two weeks. ... Kate Winslet said that when "Scene Three" was filmed, Michael Fassbender didn't bring the script at all. He had completely memorized a full 190 pages of the script. (It's a madman who is a idiot.)
Michael Fassbender said in an interview that he really didn't know why Christian Bale rejected the role of Jobs. He thought this role Bale couldn't be more suitable. He called Bale to express this idea himself.
The filming location of the shareholders meeting and the 1984 Macintosh launch in the film is exactly the original location of the year: Flint Center of De Anza Community College, Cupertino, California.
When filming the film "The Tailor", Kate Winslet heard about it from her makeup artist The news of this Jobs movie, the makeup artist had just been hired by the crew of the Jobs movie. The strong production lineup made Winslet very interested in the film. She sent a photo of herself wearing a black wig to the crew and succeeded in getting the role of Joanna Hoffman.
Before the movie was released, Sorkin revealed that the film will consist of three 30-minute or so scenes that span the 16-year history. All scenes are about the highly dramatic adaptations that took place in the background before and after the three major product launches. The story, the location includes two auditoriums, a restaurant and a garage, and through flashbacks, flashbacks, interspersed to describe several important moments in Jobs's life.
This is the third Jobs movie since Pirates of Silicon Valley in 1999 and Jobs in 2013. (In fact, there are several documentaries, such as this year’s Steve Jobs: Man in the Machine)
There is a scene in the film. Two Steves in the garage are arguing about how many slots are needed on the Mac. At this time, two soy sauce men walk slowly in the background. The taller one is a cameo by Aaron Sorkin.
The female lead role has also considered Jessica Chastain (brain it, it looks similar, after all, the same age...)
Michael Fassbender joked that the protagonist he imagined was Ashton Kutcher.
Aaron Sorkin originally wanted Tom Cruise to play Jobs.
Although the movie only played until 1998, there are still a lot of elements hinting and mentioning a series of Apple's subsequent innovative products, such as iPad/iPod/iTunes. (Remember the old saying gonna put music in your pocket right)

Jobs do not understand, or who hate Sorkin style dialogue, it would be difficult Have fun from this film. The whole story is a backstage story. Whenever the spotlight comes on, the story comes to an abrupt end. In a limited time, the film attempts to maximize the story of Jobs's rich and tortuous life through three large close-ups. This is not the first film to talk about Jobs, and it will not be the last, but it is probably the most dramatic conflict and the boldest adaptation.
