Gran Turismo is an upcoming Sports-Drama film that will be produced by Sony Pictures. The film is based on Sony’s video game series of the same name. The Gran Turismo games are racing simulations which try to emulate the appearance and performance of a large selection of vehicles. Unlike the other video game adaptations in development, the Gran Turismo movie will severely deviate away from the source material as the movie is supposed to tell the story of Jann Madenborough who became a race car driver by playing Gran Turismo video games. I’m guessing there is more to Jann’s story but through this overarching story Sony has found a way to develop a big budget movie based on a racing game series that is historically devoid of storytelling. As the release date of the movie is crawling closer, Sony has released a Sneak Peek that reveals the first official trailer of Gran Turismo will arrive on May 2nd.
Gran Turismo Movie Trailer Sneak Peek Released!
The filming for Gran Turismo began around a year back and since then Sony Pictures have been slowly teasing their newest video game adaptation, however, a lot of the film’s plot is kept under wraps. In fact, little to no official footage have been revealed by Sony. Many expected the first trailer of Gran Turismo to arrive at CinemaCon 2023, during Sony’s panel on Day 1. However, that didn’t happen. This disappointed a lot of fans. However, as the release date of the movie is close, Sony cannot make fans wait any longer.
So, finally the studio has released a 15 seconds sneak peek which gives us a quick tease of the trailer that will arrive on May 2nd. The sneak peek reveals David Harbour’s character along with the movie’s lead- Darren Barnet.
