Michael Mann’s new film is the latest in a line of long-gestating films which Driver has starred in. <\/p>
Michael Mann\u2019s new film Ferrari<\/a> has been a long time in the works \u2013 with the acclaimed director first hatching plans for a film based on the legendary motor racer and entrepreneur back in 2000.<\/p>\n It now finally arrives in UK cinemas with Adam Driver in the starring role and marks the latest in a long line of long-gestating passion projects the actor has worked on.<\/p>\n Ahead of its release, Driver and his co-stars Penelope Cruz and Shailene Woodley chatted exclusively to RadioTimes.com<\/a> about the film, and we asked him if the fact that the project had been so long in the works made it an extra enticing prospect.<\/p>\n \u201cI think it\u2019s a cherry on top, but I don\u2019t know it\u2019s something that makes its way into the day-to-day shooting,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve had the luxury of working on a lot of things that have been long-gestating with directors \u2013 passion projects of theirs.<\/p>\n \u201cI did this movie, The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, with Terry Gilliam, and this movie Silence, with Martin Scorsese, which he tried to make for a long time.<\/p>\n \u201cI just did this thing [Megalopolis] with Francis Ford Coppola that he tried to\u2026 that he showed me notes that he made about the movie 40 years ago, and now it\u2019s just now being done.\u201d<\/p>\n He added that although he was sure there was a \u201csubconscious pressure to it\u201d, he feels like that regardless of what film he\u2019s working on, but he did explain a little why he reckons he is so drawn to interesting projects from big-name auteurs.<\/p>\n \u201cMostly I think, you know, it\u2019s going to be unique,\u201d he said. \u201cIt probably won\u2019t be commercial, but it will be something that has that\u2026.it will probably be something that has longevity and [is] interesting.\u201d<\/p> Ferrari will be released in UK cinemas on Tuesday 26th December ahead of launching on Sky Cinema in 2024. <\/strong>R<\/strong>ead more of our\u00a0Film<\/a>\u00a0coverage, or visit our\u00a0TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Streaming Guide<\/a>\u00a0to see what\u2019s on tonight.<\/strong><\/p>\n Try Radio Times magazine today and get 10 issues for only \u00a310 \u2013\u00a0subscribe now<\/a>.
