He’s come a long way since That 70s show and Punked, but can Ashton Kutcher cut it as Steve Jobs in the biggest role of his career to date? We’ll soon find out.

With not too many serious roles behind him, there is a question mark over whether Kutcher has the chops to deliver a convincing portrayal of the former Apple head honcho, who died in October 2011.

Jobs was chosen to close the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year and is said to have received mixed reviews, but the proof will be in the pudding when it is officially released next year.

In the meantime, for a taste of what’s in store, you can check out the trailer for the movie, which documents Jobs’ establishment of Apple in the 70s and his development into one of the biggest businessmen and technology pioneers in the world.

Co-starring Dermot Mulroney and Matthew Modine amongst others, Jobs is set to go on general release in August of this year.
