The working title for the movie is 'Steve Jobs'. We can see what they did there. Rogen plays the part of Steve Wozniak, his former partner and one of the co-founders of the company. Winslet is former Mac marketing boss Joanna Hoffman, Waterston is Jobs’ ex-girlfriend Chrisann Brennan, Daniels will play Apple executive John Sculley and Haney-Jardine has been cast in the role of Jobs’ daughter. We look forward to seeing how it pans out.
