Steve Jobs Is Unpopular In New Biopic Trailer
Steve Jobs comes across as a deeply unpopular man in the first full trailer for the biopic about the Apple (NasdaqGS: AAPL - news) co-founder.
Michael Fassbender plays Jobs in the film directed by Danny Boyle.
The two-minute long clip shows Jobs being criticised by the other Apple co-founder, Steve Wozniak, played by Seth Rogen.
Wozniak asks Jobs: "What do you do? You're not an engineer. You're not a designer. You can't put a hammer to a nail.
"I built the circuit board. The graphical interface was stolen. So how come, 10 times in a day, I read Steve Jobs is a genius. What do you do?"
"Musicians play their instruments. I play the orchestra," Fassbender’s Jobs responds.
The trailer has divided critics and has been compared to The Social Network's darker look at Mark Zuckerberg's creation of Facebook (NasdaqGS: FB - news) .
Oscar-winner Aaron Sorkin wrote the script for both films.
The advert also shows Kate Winslet playing ex-Macintosh marketing chief Joanna Hoffman and Jeff Daniels as former Apple chief executive John Sculley.
In another scene, Winslet's Hoffman tells Jobs to make peace with a girl he will not accept is his daughter.
The film is divided into three parts - each before the launch of one of Apple's products.
Jobs, who was known as a demanding perfectionist in real life, died from cancer in 2011.
:: Steve Jobs is due for release on 9 October.
