Aaron Sorkin to Tim Cook: ‘You’ve got a lot of nerve’
“Nobody did this movie to get rich”, Sorkin said.

Apple did not respond to a request for comment.
To illustrate just how non-opportunistic a project Steve Jobs was, Sorkin indicated that he, and other key members of the behind-the-scenes creative team, though he didnt specify exactly who, actually took pay cuts in order to ensure that the film got made.
Apple’s production in China has previously undergone waves of criticism after a string of suicides at supplier Foxconn. Steve Jobs is scheduled for a wide release early next month, though following its debut recently at the Telluride Film Festival, it has earned high marks. Steve Jobs is the third recent look at the Apple co-founder’s life after Jobs starring Ashton Kutcher and Alex Gibney’s searing doc, Steve Jobs: The Man in the Machine. In fact, he said that he wasn’t happy with any of the movies made about Jobs. “He’s someone that you wanted to do your best work [for]”, Cook told Colbert, notes Slash Film.
‘He was a joy to work with and I love him dearly, I miss him everyday, ‘ the CEO said. And while he admitted that he hadn’t seen any of the films about his former boss, Cook called those involved with them “opportunists”, a label that certainly pissed off Sorkin.
Cook later said that filmmakers are being “opportunistic”, adding, “I hate this; it’s not a great part of our world”.
Jobs was known for his iconic Apple product rollouts, but what we never saw was the drama that preceded those keynotes.
