Steve Jobs died in 2011 from pancreatic cancer. A movie about his life was made in 2013. At first, Sony was producing the movie. They had cast Christian Bale as their Steve Jobs. Aaron Sorkin, the movie screenwriter wanted Tom Cruise to play the role of Jobs. Danny Boyle, the film director was concern about age and didn't think that Cruise was right for the role. Bale had been given the role because of his star power.  Bale soon quit the film and Sony didn't get enough funding so they dropped the project. Universal later picked it up and finished it. Overall, the film was fulled with a lot of controversy.
