that Aaron Sorkin, who was movie on Tuesday, said: "I now so little about what I am going to write. I know what I am not going to write. It can't be a straight ahead biography because it's very difficult to shake the cradle-to-grave structure of a biography."

"Drama is tension versus obstacle," Sorkin told reporters at a conference for his upcoming drama The Newsroom. "Someone wants something, something is standing in their way of getting it. They want money, they want the girl, they want to get to Philadelphia - it doesn't matter And I need to find that event [from Steve Jobs' life] and I will. I just don't know what it is."

Sorkin, who won an Oscar for his screenplay of The Social Network, revealed that Steve Wozniak, the other Steve that founded Apple in a garage with Jobs in 1976, is working for the film studio as a "tutor" on the technical details, and will provide insights about Jobs himself to help maintain the authenticity of the film.

Sony's movie shouldn't be confused with the independent biopic about starring , which is also set to be released this year. On Monday, the Two and a Half Men star was on his way to the film set.
