The new footage shows Ashton Kutcher as Jobs, chatting to Apple co-founder Steve Wozinak, played by Josh Gad.
In what appears to be the Hewlett Packard car park, where the talented duo formerly worked, they discuss the opportunities for a new operating system that Wozinak had created, with Ashton saying: ‘This is freedom! This is freedom to create, and to do and to build, as artists, as individuals.'
To which Josh responds: ‘Look. You're overreacting. Even if you were developing this for freaks like us, and I doubt you are, nobody wants to buy a computer... nobody.’
And this nicely sets up the next line, with Ashton adding: ‘How does somebody know what they want if they've never ever seen it.'
