Second trailer for ‘Steve Jobs’ shows off more emotion

Following the inaugural ‘Steve Jobs’ trailer published this summer and a follow-up video released in August, Universal is now drumming up publicity ahead of the film’s theatrical release next month with yet another official trailer.

As we near the official release for the film, the next full-length trailer has been released. This one clocks in at over two minutes, and it really gets down into the emotion of the characters therein, especially Jobs himself. There will obviously be a lot of back-and-forth in this film, which is rated “R” specifically for language, thanks in large part to Aaron Sorkin penning the script.

Here’s the full synopsis of the film:

Set backstage at three iconic product launches and ending in 1998 with the unveiling of the iMac, Steve Jobs takes us behind the scenes of the digital revolution to paint an intimate portrait of the brilliant man at its epicenter. Steve Jobs is directed by Academy Award® winner Danny Boyle and written by Academy Award® winner Aaron Sorkin, working from Walter Isaacson’s best-selling biography of the Apple founder. The producers are Mark Gordon, Guymon Casady of Film 360, Scott Rudin and Academy Award® winner Christian Colson. Michael Fassbender plays Steve Jobs, the pioneering founder of Apple, with Academy Award®-winning actress Kate Winslet starring as Joanna Hoffman, former marketing chief of Macintosh. Steve Wozniak, who co-founded Apple, is played by Seth Rogen, and Jeff Daniels stars as former Apple CEO John Sculley. The film also stars Katherine Waterston as Chrisann Brennan, Jobs’ ex-girlfriend, and Michael Suhlbarg as Andy Hertzfeld, one of the original members of the Apple Macintosh development team.
