One of the biggest films to premiere at Sundance in the coming week is 'jOBS,' the biopic about the late Apple founder Steve Jobs, and we've got a peek at stars Ashton Kutcher and Josh Gad in the lead roles of Jobs and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, respectively.
Hollywood has a history of similar, if not identical projects going head-to-head. A Kurt Russell-starring Wyatt Earp film faced off with a Kevin Coster-starring version in the early '90s. Oliver Stone's Alexander the Great movie killed Baz Luhrmann's. Outside of the biopic realm, Pixar's 'Finding Nemo' and DreamWorks' 'Shark Tale' were released in suspiciously close proximity. The trend continues this year, with two Snow White films hitting theaters and two Steve Jobs biopics entering production. One of the Steve Jobs movies recently hired Aaron Sorkin to pen the script. The other stars Ashton Kutcher will go before the cameras in June and already has an official site.
