The 'Gran Turismo' movie, inspired by the video game, will be based on a true story.
and confirmed in 2022 to be on Sony's release slate, the movie is based on a true story. It will recount the career of British racing driver Jann Mardenborough, who broke into real-life racing by playing"Gran Turismo." Mardenborough is played by Archie Madekwe from the Apple TV+ series"See," and he is joined in the film by David Harbour of"Stranger Things" fame and Orlando Bloom, who made his name in the"Lord of the Rings" movies.
For those unfamiliar with the story,"Gran Turismo" publisher Sony Computer Entertainment once ran a competition with Nissan called GT Academy. Between 2008 and 2016, it pitted gamers against each other for the chance to become a Nissan factory driver. The competition seems to factor into the movie's plot, as a number of young drivers in identical racing overalls and a crop of Nissan GT-Rs can be glimpsed in the trailer.
Things didn't go well. Mardenborough and co-drivers Max Chilton and Olivier Pla failed to finish in what turned out to be an uncompetitive and unreliable car. Le Mans 2015 ended up being the car's only race, and Mardenborough's most high-profile career moment so far. That's not exactly a Hollywood ending.
