Sony Pictures made a $1 million against $3 million deal to buy the right to produce a film about Apple founder Steve Jobs, according to Metro.

The movie will be based on Jobs’ biography written by former CNN chairman and Time Magazine managing editor Walter Isaacson.

Jobs died less than a week ago after a battle with pancreatic cancer. Isaacson’s book was supposed to be released on November 21, but due to Jobs’ death the release date was moved up to October 24.

The biography is based on 40 interviews with Jobs as well as more than 100 interviews with friends, family members and colleagues.

At the time of Jobs’ death last week, the only movie chronicling his life and rise to fame was ‘Pirates of Silicon Valley,’ which was based on the book “Fire in the Valley: The Making of the Personal Computer” by Paul Freiberger and Michael Swaine.
