Leonardo DiCaprio Drops Out of Running to Play Steve Jobs in the Other Planned Biopic About the Apple Co-Founder

Not to be confused with Jobs, the other biopic, starring Ashton Kutcher, that already came out

Leonardo DiCaprio won't be following in Ashton Kutcher's footsteps after all.

The five-time Oscar nominee has dropped out of the running to play Steve Jobs in the as-yet untitled biopic being adapted from Walter Isaacson's best-selling biographic by Aaron Sorkin and to be directed by Danny Boyle. 

(Wich is not to be confused with Jobs, the movie starring Ashton Kutcher as the Apple co-founder that already came and went. But you know how movies tend to happen in pairs...)

E! News has confirmed a THR report that the 39-year-old actor, who has channeled a number of larger-than-life characters on the big screen over the years, had been in talks but ultimately hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete on the idea. Boyle had previously directed him in The Beach.
