Bill Gates
WHO IS HE?: Only the wealthiest man in the world. Oh, and he’s also a founder of Microsoft.
WHY MAKE A MOVIE ABOUT HIM?: Why not? There’s three dramatic interpretations of Steve Jobs made only to show how much of a megalomaniac he was. Bill Gates, however, seems more deeply ingrained to the information age. His role in the conception of the modern computer is nothing short of essential. It starts at age 13 when he first saw a computer, moving to when he was banned by his school for hacking into them, only to then be hired by the same people to debug the very computers he hacked into. Then in University, he spent more time selling computers than as student. We all know where the story ends, but it’s a surprise Hollywood hasn’t tackled this project yet.
