AK: I don't know if he got the notoriety that maybe he wanted and I don't know if he got the notoriety that he deserved. He really was the engineer behind this personal computing revolution. But there came a certain point where Apple wasn't possible without Steve Wozniak and I think there came a point in time where that switched and it became that Apple is not possible without Steve Jobs.
Besides the story between Woz and Jobs, Ashton Kutcher's portrayal of Steve Jobs is easily the most talked about subject about the movie. Kutcher has the initial advantage of a reasonable resemblance to Jobs, but goes beyond this to faithfully re-create some of his man's physical mannerisms.
AC: So what do you want the audience to know about the Steve Jobs you portrayed?
AK: I hope it inspires people to have the courage to build the life that they live in and not be afraid to set great goals for themselves and pursue those goals. I hope they learn to do it in a way that's a little bit more kind and generous than Steve Jobs did, but my goal ultimately is to inspire a new generation of people to build amazing things.
The movie "Jobs" will be released on August 16th in the United States to mark Apple's 37th anniversary.
