Posted by samzenpus on Sunday April 1, 2012 @06:28PM from the am-I-being-punked? dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Variety is reporting that Ashton Kutcher – who you likely recognize from That 70s Show, Punked, and Two and a Half Men – has been tapped to play Apple co-founder Steve Jobs in an indie film titled 'Jobs', based on a script from Matt Whiteley. The film will chronicle Steve Jobs from wayward hippie to co-founder of Apple, where he became one of the most revered creative entrepreneurs of our time."

I have a much harder time working out why Ashton is revered!
Why he is revered, is that so difficult? Why he is chosen is maybe a bit more obvious after seeing this...
