Passion and Joy of Auto Mogul’s Life in Michael Mann’s Biopic, Starring Adam Driver
The Michael Mann-directed biopic about Enzo Ferrari, an Italian former racer who influenced car manufacturing and the sport, will hit theaters December 25.
In the first trailer for Neon‘s Ferrari, the Italian auto mogul’s personal and professional lives collide.
Adam Driver as Enzo Ferrari, the ex-Formula 1 racer who built his own factory and established the Ferrari brand.
Set during the summer of 1957, the movie’s two-minute teaser plays on a well-known concept in quantum mechanics: Two objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time.
Ferrari is testing the limits of his new cars, resulting in explosive and even deadly crashes.
At the same time, he is grappling with his messy and complicated personal life. He grapples with his wife and business partner, Laura (Penélope Cruz), amid the death of their son, Dino.
Meanwhile, Ferrari has another family, with mistress Lina Lardi (Shailene Woodley) and their son, Piero.
Facing challenges at their company, where money is running out, the only way to save his legacy and business is to win the Mille Miglia, a treacherous 1,000-mile race across Italy.
Past and present, ambition and duty, dreams and delusions collide in this emotionally explosive trailer for the upcoming film.
Based on Brock Yates’ book “Enzo Ferrari: The Man, the Cars, the Races, the Machine,” Ferrari is written by Troy Kennedy Martin.
The film also stars Patrick Dempsey as driver Piero Taruffi, Jack O’Connell as driver Peter Collins; Sarah Gadon as Linda Christian, and Gabriel Leone as Fon de Portago.
Mann serves as producer along with P.J. van Sandwijk, Marie Savare, John Lesher, Thomas Hayslip, John Friedberg, Laura Rister, Andrea lervolino, Monika Bacardi, Gareth West, Lars Sylvest and Thorsten Schumacher.
Ferrari will release in theaters December 25.
