VIDEO : Michael Fassbender: Christian Bale 'Perfect' to Play Steve Jobs

Before Michael Fassbender was brought on board by director Danny Boyle to take the lead in Steve Jobs , Christian Bale was set to step into the late Apple founder's iconic sneakers. "I thought to myself: Christian Bale is perfect, why isn?t he doing it?" the actor told The Hollywood Reporter while promoting the film in London. While Fassbender admitted that he "doesn?t look anything like" Jobs, he doesn?t believe it?s detrimental to the film, which had its world premiere in Telluride to positive reviews.
