Gad Up For Wozniak Role In "Jobs" Biopic

Josh Gad is in talks to play Steve Wozniak in the biopic about the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs titled "Jobs" and starring Ashton Kutcher says Digital Spy.



Matt Whiteley wrote the script that producer Mark Hulme says will focus on the early years of Apple, its founding and the up and down years from 1971 to 2000. The film itself is not based on one particular book though. Unlike a rival biopic in development based on Walter Isaacson's authorised biography called Steve Jobs

Wozniak was one of Jobs's Apple co-founders in the 1970s. Though not close, the partners maintained a strong professional bond right up until Jobs's death last fall after a battle with Pancreatic Cancer.

Joshua Michael Stern ("Swing Vote") will call action on the biopic which will be shot during Kutcher's hiatus from Two And A Half Men as he moves closer to new deal to stay with the sit com

The film is intended for release late this year.
