David Fincher withdraws from Steve Jobs' biopic?
Director David Fincher has reportedly walked out of producer Aaron Sorkin's biopic of late Apple founder Steve Jobs.
Sony Pictures has turned down the Oscar-winning filmmaker's demand for $10 million as pay-day as well as control of the marketing of the movie, reports contactmusic.com.
A source said that Fincher's salary demands were "ridiculous".
"You're not doing 'Transformers' here. You're not doing 'Captain America'. This is quality - it's not screaming commerciality. He should be rewarded in success, but not up front," said the source.
It was said that Fincher had joined the as-yet untitled drama after working with Sorkin on the Facebook movie "The Social Network".
