Following the teaser back in August, the full trailer has now been released for Michael Mann’s “Ferrari” biopic which will open in cinemas on Christmas Day.
It is the summer of 1957. Behind the spectacle of Formula 1, ex-racer Enzo Ferrari is in crisis. Bankruptcy threatens the factory he and his wife, Laura built from nothing ten years earlier.
Their volatile marriage has been battered by the loss of their son, Dino a year earlier. Ferrari struggles to acknowledge his son Piero with Lina Lardi.
Meanwhile, his drivers’ passion to win pushes them to the edge as they launch into the treacherous 1,000-mile race across Italy, the Mille Miglia. Troy Kennedy Martin penned the film.
Adam Driver stars as Enzo Ferrari alongside Penelope Cruz as his wife Laura Ferrari. Shailene Woodley, Jack O’Connell, Sarah Gadon, Patrick Dempsey and Gabriel Leone co-star.
The project marks the celebrated “Heat” and “The Insider” auteur’s first film since “Blackhat” eight years ago.
The film was being lined up as a major potential Oscar contender for the year, but the film’s screenings on the Fall film festival circuit yielded somewhat softer than desired positive reviews.
