‘jOBS’ biopic starring Ashton Kutcher will shoot in Apple Garage and childhood home

The folks behind the upcoming Steve Jobs biopic, now dubbed “jOBS,” which stars Ashton Kutcher as the late CEO, released a presser this evening to announce the production’s June start date for filming. They also confirmed shooting will begin in the “historic garage” where Jobs and Steve Wozniak founded Apple. The film’s early scenes will even feature Jobs’ Los Altos home where he grew up to maintain “accuracy and authenticity” during the movie-making process.

Ken Segall, the author of “Insanely Simple,” took to his blog recently to discuss the Kutcher biopic that now boasts authentic roots, and he compared it to another movie in the works by Sony, which is based on Walter Isaacson’s biography, features a screenplay by Aaron Sorkin, and has Wozniak signed-on as an advisor.

Steve Jobs worked closely on next iPhone with larger screen, says Bloomberg

Adding to reports by both the Wall Street Journal and Reuters with claims of a next-generation iPhone with a larger screen, Bloomberg reports that Apple’s next-generation iPhone features a design that the late Apple co-founder worked personally on. Bloomberg’s report does not specifically say this new iPhone has a four-inch display, but that screen size seems to be the one that Apple is currently targeting. Bloomberg specifically says that the next iPhone, likely launching in October, will feature an “overhauled” look, but does not offer any specifics other than a “bigger” display.
