Ashton Kutcher transformed into Steve Jobs in the first official photo of the upcoming biopic jOBS
Ashton Kutcher was spotted earlier this year filming scenes in character as late Apple founder Steve Jobs, revealing snippets of just how alike he is to the tech wizard.
Now Ashton Kutcher’s transformation has been shown off in its entirety thanks to the first official photo for the upcoming biopic being released.
And his appearance will startle most fans thanks to his similarity to Jobs, who passed away last October.
Ashton Kutcher can be seen posing with his dated hair style and beard to complete his look as Steve Jobs.
The actor casually sits on a desk carrying his old fashioned reading glasses while close attention has been paid to detail, including old computers sitting in the background.
Ashton Kutcher, 34, is taking on the icon in jOBS, which tells the story of Steve Jobs’ pioneering life.

Earlier this year Ashton Kutcher was spotted filming the biopic about the technology genius at Loyola Marymount University in LA.
Ashton Kutcher looked a million miles away from his normal appearance as he recreated the movements and image of the late Steve Jobs.
Everything from the side parting hairstyle to the tight lipped mouth mirrored the way the founder of Apple looked.
Ashton Kutcher was seen on set clasping his hands together just like Steve Jobs always did, and he appeared to have even copied the way he walked with his shoulders slightly slouched.
He was dressed in Steve Jobs’ trademark running trainers with jeans, a white shirt and a black sleeveless cardigan.
And even his co-star Josh Gad, who plays Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak in the project, has been astounded by his transformation.
Josh Gad told UsWeekly: “Ashton is going to blow a lot of people away. His performance was absolutely transformational.
“If he looked any more like Steve Jobs, I think it would just confuse a lot of people . . . It’s that uncanny.”
The new promotional shot comes as it has been revealed he could soon encounter an awkward run in with his ex-wife Demi Moore.
It has been announced that he is expected at the Sundance festival in Utah in January alongside Demi Moore.
Ashton Kutcher will be there with jOBS standing as the closing night film of the festival, while Demi Moore’s movie Very Good Girls will also premiere during the festivities.
