Michael Fassbender has taken a friendly pop at Ashton Kutcher’s portrayal of Steve Jobs.
The Punk’d star played the Apple co-founder in the movie Jobs which was released two years before Michael’s big screen biopic.
While the Kerry native has been lucky with the critics – earning rave reviews for his performance, Ashton was not so fortunate.

Jobs was dismissed as “an ambitious but skin-deep portrait of an influential, complex figure” by Rotten Tomatoes.
At a recent press conference in New York, Michael joked about how he had prepared for his role.
“I studied Ashton Kutcher,” he joked with a smirk on his face.
Movie: Christian Bale was the first choice to play Steve Jobs
Meanwhile, the X-Men star also addressed the fact that Christian Bale was the first choice to portray Steve.
“Obviously I don’t look anything like Steve Jobs. That was the first thing I said to Danny. I said: ‘Christian Bale looks a lot more like Steve Jobs than me,” he said.
