‘Gran Turismo’ Pic Gets Release Date; Neill Blomkamp Directing for Sony/Columbia – Deadline
So we're doing this then.

Sony's Gran Turismo movie will be directed by Neill Blomkamp and has had a release date set for 11 August 2023

The films plot focuses on the real world gamer who won some GT based competitions and went on to become a race car driver

Here's 1.5 seconds of racing footage more interesting to watch than this entire film will be

Sounds like a documentary surely? It can't be an actual film with actors?

Will people going to see it have to grind for the popcorn?

[fishbowlhead]

Yes but the popcorn economy could change at any time so you may not get any until 4 movies later.

Featurette showing how drones have been used to get angles during race sequences.


Still can't escape the vacuum created by how utterly disinteresting the story of a GT player driving the real cars is.

On the negative side it looks like it's exactly what was expected
On the plus side the trailer is literally the whole film in sequence so 2hrs saved!
