The Jobs biopic was originally set up at Sony, but Universal announced that it had picked up the film on November 24 last year.

Before Fassbender, 37, eventually nabbed the lead role, multiple actors had been attached to star as Jobs in the film, including Christian Bale and Leonardo DiCaprio. The film also stars Kate Winslet, Jeff Daniels and Katherine Waterston in pivotal roles.
