The writer of the Social Network as well as the  West Wing, The Amercican President and most recently Moneyball is apparently being courted by Sony to write the Steve Job's movie based on Walter Isaacson's book reports The Los Angeles Times.

Sorkin had known Steve and declined an invitation by him to write a Pixar movie saying he couldn't "make inanimate objects talk".

Both Sony and Sorkin's representatives declined to comment on the writer's potential involvment.
