"It's not a biopic, it's not the story of Steve Jobs," Aaron Sorkin about the film based on the official biography of Jobs

The writer of "The Social Network" (with which he won the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay) briefly talked about his next project, the big-screen adaptation of the official biography of Steve Jobs written by Walter Isaacson.

Sorkin has described his new script as "one of the few times I've finished writing what I set out to write" revealing that both lights and shadows personality co-founded Apple in a very different way to reflect on it how it has been treated so far.

"It's not a biopic, it's not the story of Steve Jobs is very different from that he is a fascinating guy, part hero, part anti-hero."

Regarding the recent rumors of The Hollywood Reporter that put Danny Boyle, director of Slumdog Millionaire, taking charge of the project now that David Fincher has turned away from negotiations, Sorkin has evaded the issue by saying:

"I do not want to reveal much tonight. Do not want to give any notice or to make someone feel that I approached the film in a different way. I'm going to make the film speak for itself. But he is surrounded fascinating kind of fascinating people , and had interesting relationships with the people in your life." 

Along with rumors of directing Boyle has also left the name of Leonardo DiCaprio as a possible actor for the role of Jobs. In any case, Aaron Sorkin has already given the final script to Sony, a script that seems to consist of three scenes of about 30 minutes around three major Apple product launches are built.
