There is, of course, a film being developed about the life of Steve Jobs, and the lead role is being fought for by two former co-stars.

Noah Wyle, who has already played Steve Jobs for a 1999 made for TV film, is supposedly up to reprise his role. That is, if George Clooney doesn't get to it first.

It's being reported that Clooney is looking to play Jobs for the biopic as well. The film is supposed to start production next year. It will be based off of Walter Isaacson's biography, which has become one of the year's best selling books.
