“Musicians play their instruments, I play the orchestra” is how Michael Fassbender’s ‘Steve Jobs’ describes his genius in the newly released trailer of the upcoming biopic on Apple co-founder.

Directed by Academy award winner Danny Boyle and written by Aaron Sorkin, the film stars Seth Rogen as Steve Wozniak, and Kate Winslet as initial Mac collaborator Joanna Hoffman.

The trailer gives an insight into the back story of building up the brand “Apple” and rise of Jobs as the epicentre of one of the biggest digital revolutions.

At the centre of the trailer is the conflict between the two founders of the brand as 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?”

Adapted from Walter Isaacson’s biography “Steve Jobs” the trailer also focuses on Jobs’ relationship with his daughter Lisa Brennan-Jobs and runs through a few flashbacks.

The amalgamation of Sorkin’s blunt and in the face dialogue with Boyle’s brilliant direction has made “Steve Jobs” a film to look forward to.

“Steve Jobs” is slated to hit the theatres in October this year.
