Sony is facing another problem from the hackers, this time in the form of leaked the emails between Sony Pictures Co-Chairman, Amy Pascal and Steve Jobs biopic "Jobs" producer, Scott Rudin.


It all started when Jolie objected to director, David Fincher about directing "Jobs" instead of her version of "Cleopatra" which was written by Eric Roth. However, the leaked emails show that Rudin is serious about getting Fincher for the biopic "Jobs".

According to the leaked email from February 2014, Rudin wrote to Pascal about shutting Jolie down before the "Maleficent" actress makes it hard for David to make the biopic. Pascal replied to the email which started a serious fight between her and Rudin.

She replied to Rudin saying that he shouldn't threaten her and she was asking Rudin to engage with her regarding the matter.

However, Rudin did not take the reply very well. He ends up attacking Pascal and Jolie and even called Jolie a "a minimally talented spoiled brat." He even mentioned it in his email that he does not have any plan on working with Jolie or anything that is connected with her.

Rudin sent another email to Pascal just attacked her again regarding their issues and saying that she had destroyed her relationship with half the town because of how she behaved.

Even though, there is news that Leonardo DiCaprio and Christian Bale are eyeing for the lead role, it seems that the progress for the biopic "Jobs" is going nowhere.

This Aaron Sorkin's  biopic "Jobs" was supposedly the second Steve Jobs inspired movie, the first one was Matt Whiteley's "Jobs", directed by Joshua Michael Stern while Ashton Kutcher played the lead role together with Dermot Mulroney, Josh Gad, Lucas Haas, and J.K. Simmons. "Jobs" was released in 2013.
