Winslet is currently in negotiations for the role, while Michael Fassbender is on board to play Steve Jobs and Seth Rogen will play Steve Wozniak.

There have been talks of Jeff Daniels playing former Apple CEO John Scully, although as Variety reports no offers have been set in place.

Universal Studios previously eyed Natalie Portman for the female lead, but she passed on the opportunity in early December.

It's unclear exactly which role Winslet will play, but many have speculated that Jobs' daughter Lisa may be the primary female character in the movie.
