Universal Pictures isn’t thinking different, so much as thinking fast.<\/p>\n

The studio announced on Wednesday that the Steve Jobs biopic, written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionaire<\/em>), will hit theaters on Oct. 9, 2015 \u2014 just eight short months from now.<\/p>\n

The date suggests the film will premiere at either the Telluride Film Festival or Toronto International Film Festival, with an eye toward awards consideration.<\/p>\n

Michael Fassbender, who took the role after dead ringer Christian Bale dropped out, won’t have to lose a lot of weight to look like Jobs in the years after 2003, when the Apple co-founder was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.<\/p>\n

That’s because Sorkin’s screenplay is set backstage during three separate product launches, the last of which is in 1998.<\/p>\n

(If Fassbender does need a little help looking the part, however, there’s an app for that.)<\/p>\n

Kate Winslet will play former Macintosh marketing chief Joanna Hoffman, while Seth Rogen will play co-founder Steve Wozniak.<\/p>\n

Filming is underway for Steve Jobs<\/em>, which Universal took out of turnaround from Sony. It comes to theaters a little over two years after Jobs<\/em>, which starred Ashton Kutcher as the Apple cofounder.<\/p>\n
