REEL NEWS:You probably saw this coming. Aaron Sorkin, writer of The West Wingand The Social Network, is currently reading Steve Jobs's biography with a mind to turning it into a movie.
“Right now I’m just in the thinking-about-it stages,” said Sorkin. “It’s a really big movie and it’s going to be a great movie no matter who writes it. He was a great entrepreneur, he was a great artist, a great thinker.”
It wouldn't be the first film to tackle Jobs's life. In 1999, Noah Wyle played the Apple founder in a lively TV movie called P irates of Silicon Valley.
