Michael Fassbender would be the first person to tell you he doesnt really look like Steve Jobs.
He told Danny Boyle as much when the director approached him to play the charismatic Apple co-founder inSteve Jobs.
And Danny was like, Well, thats not what Im interested in.
Im interested in capturing an essence of the man.
Fassbender continued, Once we had that conversation, that was it.
This is a dramatization; its not a biopic, Fassbender said.
I just tried to represent a human being.
I have utmost respect for the man.
Hopefully itll provoke a conversation.
