Exclusive interview with the film star Steve Jobs Seth Rogen, who played Steve Wozniak

The main star of the film Steve Jobs is of course Michael Fassbender, with whom we have already introduced you they brought the interviewAs well as an interview with Kate WinsletBut of course, this couple had to be accompanied by Steve Wozniak, who in the film, which will hit the shelves on DVD and Blu-ray on March 16, 3, is none other than Seth Rogen. Thanks to our collaboration with Bontonfilm, we bring you an exclusive interview with the man who played Steve Wozniak.

In the world of computing, the name Steve Wozniak well known. When you ask about the company Apple outside this sphere, the first name that usually comes up is Steve Jobs.

Yeah I guess it's hard to say kdo byl until in society Apple. I don't think it's possible to say exactly even now. During filming, we thought about what was probably going through the minds of the individual characters during those three important moments. I would include myself in the latter group - I didn't realize which part Apple byl Steve Wozniakuntil I started working on the film. In my character's case, Wozniak was probably the one who said, "Everyone should have a computer." That's like if someone today said, "Everyone should have an airplane in front of their house." That would be absolutely ridiculous. But he wanted it so badly, so he found a way to make an airplane for a few thousand dollars that would fit in your garage. That was a real success. I also think it speaks to the fact that even though Steve Wozniak left full-time work in Apple in the early 80s, remains the only employee to this dayancem of the company, who was, and still is, on the payroll from the first day of its establishment Apple.

Today, Jobs' achievements are taken for granted - we can't imagine life without the devices he invented. Yet all of these things would not have been possible without the two "Steves" in the Jobs family garage.

Silicon Valley in the 70s and 80s was kind of like Hollywood. It was an isolated community of creative people, most of whom had the same skills, the same interests. Both Hollywood and Silicon Valley aren't just two colossal businesses named after the places they're located in—you imagine that everyone who was there at the time had to have something to do with that industry. Pro What surprised me most about Sorkin's script was that he explained very little directly, including that crucial discovery in the garage. It's a much more human story. I think audiences will find that Steve Jobs He was a very flawed man, but he dreamed his big dream… and maybe he could have been happier if he didn't think kindness and genius were binary.

Could you elaborate a bit more on your last comment?

Steve Jobs He had his own way of going through life and motivating people around him, which ultimately made them achieve the unthinkable. Jobs earned a reputation as – there’s no better word for it – a boss who was really hard to get along with. He felt that if you were serving a brilliant idea, using small kindnesses in everyday life and communication was a waste of time. In his world, these two qualities, genius and kindness, exist in a binary system: it’s either one or the other, zero or one, yes or no. Woz is an extremely kind man, and that’s how I played him.

How was your experience working with Danny Boyle? What impression did you get?

If I were to go on an expedition into some unexplored jungle, I would definitely put Danny in charge. He knows how to keep things moving, he looks for even the smallest opportunities to add interest or special meaning. It's like in school: I remember exercises that were supposed to teach us to speed up reading and at the same time understand the text - words flashed before your eyes and you had to read them quickly and understand their meaning. And then it got even faster. And if you weren't paying attention and concentrating, you'd soon miss something really important. Danny took all of Aaron's words and put them in the mouths of all these constantly moving characters, and then sped it up so everything is fast and furious, but not scary. You realize what's going on and you think, "Okay, man, it's a really super fast ride, but it's cool". Danny is aware that being backstage with people walking down the hall talking about computers can feel quite confining, but it's also fresh. He's always looking for ways to add something to it, to keep it interesting, to keep the show moving.

One of the things that comes to light during these behind-the-scenes outbursts is the confrontation between Woz and Jobs. What led to their disagreement?

One of the things I like about the script is that instead of telling Jobs's life story in a straightforward "birth, adoption, school, Woz, A-ha!" way, you have Steve going through all the conflicts leading up to his product launch. If the poor guy had to deal with something this crazy every time something new was launched, I don't think he would have done it so many times. Woz has some nasty things that need to be talked out with Steve - and Danny ends up exclaiming, "Woz doesn't have aanci". The most successful product until the iMac was Apple II, which was a product created by my character, and could work with other hardware, not just the stuff from AppleSteve insisted that his computers would not have any other computers inside them.onenty. According to the script, Woz usually says something like "But that's what consumers want!". Steve hated Apple II, although it was a gold mine back then. In the script, my character asks a little thing - and it results in yelling at the guys on the team Apple II for all their hard work. They were the ones actually paying the bills. But because it didn't fit Steve's vision—it wasn't a "purebred" computer for him—he didn't want to ruin his presentation with it. So it became a constant request: "Can you please...?" - "No." - "Come on, just..." - "No." Woz didn't have aanci. And according to Aaron and Danny, this very moment speaks volumes about who they are and what their relationship is like.
