Seems Steve Wozniak, Jobs’ real-life partner, is not entirely psyched about how the powers that be decided to tell their story, much less style it – and he’s only seen a clip of it.
You see, the Woz has objected to a scene in which Jobs (that would be Kutcher) tries to convince his wiz partner (that would be Wozniak, who’s played by Josh Gad from Broadway’s The Book of Mormon) to keep working on Apple I because Apple I was “profound...freedom” and the way of the future.
“Not close. Totally wrong,” said Wozniak in communications on and with Gizmodo. “We never had such interaction and roles. [And] I never looked that professional.”
The guy went on to say that the concept of personal computers as a revolution was something that already inspired and informed his work, that it wasn’t something that Jobs had to tell him to keep him going.
And then, to drive his point home and through the living room, he added, “By the way, the Apple I was the fifth time I designed something just for fun that Steve found a way to turn into money.”
Oh, boy.
jOBS is set for an April 19 release. And, btw, Gad has said he’s “bummed” about the Apple co-founder’s snap judgment.
