Any news regarding a Michael Mann project is good news, but this is just great!
The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that Academy Award nominee Adam Driver, Academy Award winner Penélope Cruz and Shailene Woodley have been cast in Michael Mann’s Ferrari. Driver will play Enzo Ferrari and Cruz will play his wife, Laura Ferrari, in the biopic about the famed motoring icon. Woodley is set to start in the role of Lina Lardi, Enzo’s mistress. Mann’s Ferrari project earlier had Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman attached to star.
Mann said in a statement,
“Being able to have these wonderfully talented artists, actors Adam Driver, Penélope Cruz and Shailene Woodley, bring to life these unique characters on location in Modena and the Emilia-Romagna is a vision fulfilled,”
Mann will produce via his Moto Productions banner alongside P.J. van Sandwijk, John Lesher, Lars Sylvest, Thorsten Schumacher and Gareth West, with Niels Juul executive producing. Ferrari will be released worldwide by STXfilms and its partners
