Unseen Footage From Lengthy Steve Jobs Interview Heading to Theaters

The film had limited screenings this year at select theaters in the Landmark circuit, which is also owned by Magnolia’s parent company, the Wagner/Cuban Co. Magnolia now plans to open the film in select theaters May 11, with a DVD and VOD release to follow in the summer.

Small portions of the interview were originally used for a television series when it was first conducted. Recently rediscovered, the interview is being presented in its entirety.

“Steve Jobs: The Lost Interview is a fascinating document that will be enlightening and entertaining for anyone that’s interested in Jobs’ legacy,” Magnolia president Eamonn Bowles said. “It’s a valuable piece of history that has thankfully been rescued from obscurity.”
