Actor Christian Bale has reportedly dropped out of director Danny Boyle's biopic on Steve Jobs.
According to a source, the Oscar-winning actor felt that he was not the right choice for the role and finally decided to withdraw his name, reports hollywoodreporter.com.
The film was about to go on the floor this winter.
"Bale, after much deliberation and conflicting feelings, came to the conclusion he was not right for the part and decided to withdraw," a source said.
"The script is said to be divided into three acts that detail Jobs preparing for three presentations that came to define his life and the life of the company he co-founded, lost and came back to," added the source.
