For those who will inevitably ask "What the hell is a Gran Turismo movie supposed to be?" -
Honestly, this is probably about the best way to make a movie with Gran Turismo attached to it. Otherwise it's just Ford V Ferrari or something similar.
That feels like a very short turn around. They must be done with pre production and ready to shoot soon.
Yeah, honestly it's sort of an obvious spin on a classic sports movie setup. Unlikely amateur becomes professional, probably with a charming aging movie star guiding him along the track who then dies before the last race. Then we flash forward, the young kid has retired, and we see him pick up a PlayStation controller with his son (named after the dead mentor), and he shows him how to play Gran Turismo. Fade to black, run the credits.
also this is absolutely a tom holland/woody harrelson picture
Ah, it's the same story as the Gran Turismo movie they tried to make 9 years ago.
Based on Jann Mardenborough?

Probably on Lucas Ordoñez, since he was the first GT Academy winner and they already tried making a Gran Turismo movie about his story beforeBased on Jann Mardenborough?

Hmm, even though it's "based on a true story," that plot description kinda sounds like Sony is just kissing its own ass. Depending on how they execute it, it can easily veer into a tacky, glorified advert for the game. But I'll still keep an eye on it, I guess. The idea of a Gran Turismo movie is interesting to me, especially if the movie carries that same obsession for the automobile industry and its history.
No better time to release a PC port of that racing game but around that .
Sony's transmedia events taking place are a thing to note if you want to predict their upcoming schedule of games.
Either a TV show or a movie coming out or a sequel of another game coming out is decent hint to them releasing 'related game content' to that franchise.
We might get a Director's Cut version of GT7 for PS5 and PC since it would've been more than a year around time next August.

Final race for the title is everything turning into GT5 graphics with a voice over "I can do a better time as I did back then!" Cue inspiring song and his days playing Gran Turismo flashback.
He wins, credits roll.
I saved you all a movie ticket go watch SpeedRacer instead.

The premise is simple yet have potential.
GT movie in Ford v Ferrari style would be awesome.
Though what kind of new game to accompany when the film out?
New DLCs?
New Microtransactions? Lol.

I was really hoping the movie would be about Luca and the origins of his bizarre cafe that serves menus of cars and is populated only by famous car experts.
Is it an alternate dimension? The afterlife? A figment of Luca's imagination?
So many possibilities.

yeah, I really like that GT Cafe concept. with a few tweak, you can probably make the John Wick of Fast and Furious movies, lol
Blomkamp isn't the first name I'd think of for esport Rocky, but looking at his imdb and it seems Chappie really did a number on his mainstream career.
I mean... not to doubt that they plan the movie to release in August next year, but it was in "very early development" in May this year, there's no stars attached or any casting done, they havent filmed anything - while i get that GT doesn't need a huge amount of special effects etc... lets just say it seems like a pretty optimistic target and wouldn't be surprised if they're date sitting just a little bit
Edit: Cal Kestis to star? teenage might be a stretch for him now though haha
