With never meeting the tech space genius, Ashton Kutcher took on the role of a life time in portraying Apple founder Steve Jobs in ‘JOBS’ opening August 16.

The other night Kutcher along with director Joshua Michael Stern held a question and answer session in San Francisco covering a wide variety of topics on the production of the movie.

Said Kutcher to Jay Leno: “I had an opportunity to meet him about 6 months before he passed away. I was working that day and couldn’t go. In hindsight, I had the opportunity to meet the Leonardo da Vinci of our generation and I missed it. That really affected my decision to take on the role.”
