‘Ferrari’ Trailer: Racing is a Deadly Passion

Enzo Ferrari (played by Adam Driver) describes racing as a deadly passion and terrible joy in the official trailer for Neon’s Ferrari. The two-minute trailer includes new action scenes as well as preview of the relationship between Enzo, Laura Ferrari (Penelope Cruz), and Lina Lardi (Shailene Woodley).

The cast of the action drama also includes Sarah Gordon, Gabriel Leone, Jack O’Connell, and Patrick Dempsey.

“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 (Cruz) 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 (Woodley),” reads Neon’s synopsis. “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.”
