I’m not an Apple, or SJ fan. I would watch this film, but just can’t get past Fassbender as SJ.

Fassbender’s a good actor, and good actors can surprise you. There have been quite a few films where I thought “that guy is totally miscast”, but a few minutes into the performance, I completely forgot my reservations because they were able to slide into the role so well.
One example of that was “Love & Mercy”, the Brian Wilson biopic. I thought Paul Dano and John Cusack were both miscast because they had little resemblance to Brian. However, Dano was so good at mimicking the voice, facial expressions, body language, etc, that he was completely believable. Cusack did alright, but he wasn’t half as good.
The guy should have at least dyed his hair black for closer resemblance. The actor of the earlier film, whose name escapes me, looked a lot like SJ.
