Director Neill Blomkamp’S Gran Turismo it looks like it’s going to be a great movie, and the movie has actually received a fair amount of positive buzz. The film tells the true story of Jann Mardenborough, a teenager Gran Turismo player who ended up becoming a professional race car driver.
While making the film, the director wanted the audience to be immersed in the scene of high-speed racing cars. He wanted them to make the experience of going to the cinema real. During a recent interview with Total Film, one of the film’s stars, David Portcompared to the movie Top Gun: nonconformist in that way. He said:
“What’s right is Archie in the [car], super uncomfortable, high-G, nauseous, 200km/h… So it’s a fair comparison. I do not know what [Maverick director] Joseph Kosinski likes it, but I’m sure he wanted the same thing. We just have to make it feel real.”
Harbor went on to say he hopes the film does just as well Top Gun: nonconformist:
“I certainly hope we do as well as Top Gun: Maverick. But I made that comparison myself. I think there’s a sort of throwback quality to the pacing of that movie, and what that movie is doing, and c “It’s for us too. I feel like we’re very connected to that and we’re in the same family.”
The film has been described as “the ultimate wish-fulfillment story of a teenage Gran Turismo player whose gaming skills won him a series of Nissan competitions to become a true professional race car driver.” Jann was able to translate his impressive Gran Turismo gaming skills into real life through a series of Nissan competitions, which led him to become a professional race car driver.
Speaking about the film, Blomkamp said, “They’re real actors, in real cars, on real race tracks, driving at breakneck speed. The lodestar for me was making a video game title with character work that pushed the film, even more than the racing. Although the racing is pretty damn intense too.
The film features a large ensemble cast including Orlando Bloom set to star in the film along with Archie Madekwe. The cast also includes Djimon Hounsou (Shazam!), Geri Halliwell-Horner (You are underground), Daniel Puig (Naomi), Maeve Courtier-Lilley (The Outpost), Emily Hartford (A Hollywood Christmas), Barroso pepper (Deep sea), AND Sang Heon Lee (XO, kitty).
