"jOBS" tells the incredibly powerful and true story of the visionary Steve Jobs, who set out to change the world with Apple.

Directed by Joshua Michael Stern, "jOBS" is described as an incredibly personal story covering nearly 40 years of Steve Jobs’ life and an intensely character-driven story that is as much a sweeping epic as it is a personal tale.

The producers claim their inspiring story pulls no punches and does not speculate, only telling the truthful real life events as seen through his eyes, emotions, and ingenuity. The life of Steve Jobs.

The film stars Ashton Kutcher, Dermot Mulroney, Josh Gad, Matthew Modine, J.K. Simmons, Ahna O'Reilly, Lukas Haas, James Woods, Lesley Ann Warren, and Kevin Dunn.

On Thursday, Jan. 31, at MacWorld/iWorld in San Francisco, Apple will also hold a special event "Playing Steve & Woz in JOBS: A Conversation with Ashton Kutcher and Josh Gad,” in which the two actors share their experiences playing the technology industry’s two most celebrated and influential personalities.
