It will arrive in theaters in October expected movie Steve Jobs charting three crucial moments in the life of the late Apple co-founder. The screenplay written by the acclaimed Aaron Sorkin gives the film a very unconventional structure, which one of the actors, Michael Stuhlbarg, has now revealed more about. "I've never done anything like this," Stuhlbarg said.

Forty-seven-year-old Stuhlbarg, who starred in the film, for example A serious man, in the latest Steve Jobs movie, he plays Andy Hertzfeld, who was a member of the original Macintosh development team.

One of the three parts is dedicated to the introduction of the original Macintosh, and Michael Stuhlbarg reveals that a unique test structure had to be created thanks to three strictly separate acts.

"The trial process was something I've never experienced in my life and probably never will again." he said in an interview for Collider Stuhlbarg, who considers the entire filming to be an extraordinary experience. "Aaron Sorkin wrote it practically as a three-act play, where each act is the introduction of a new product." In addition to the introduction of the Macintosh, the film will also depict the launch of the NeXT computer and the first iPod.

“We rehearsed each act for two weeks and then shot it for two weeks. Then we rehearsed for two weeks, shot for two weeks, rehearsed for two weeks and shot for two weeks," Stuhlbarg described the unique experience. "And that was amazing, because when we were ready to shoot, we were really, really ready, and it brought us all together in an incredible way," he recalls.

According to Stuhlbarg, this process gave the actors something to tell the story that they don't usually experience on set. "You get a feel for what the story is trying to tell you," says Stuhlbarg, who praised his collaboration with Sorkin, who he said was constantly tweaking the script to make it perfect.

In the film, Stuhlbarg plays Andy Hertzfeld, who worked at Apple for many years preparing for the introduction of the Macintosh. He had a very interesting relationship with Jobs, which had its ups and downs, but they had great respect for each other. "He had a great knowledge of what he was doing, whereas Jobs' genius was often in bringing people together or getting the best out of people," Stuhlbarg reflects on his film character.

Ahead of its US theatrical release on October 9, watch the film Steve Jobs will premiere at the New York Film Festival. We can look forward to Michael Fassbender in the main role, i.e. in the role of Steve Jobs.
