Sony Pictures have released the first UK Trailer for Neil Blomkamp‘s Gran Turismo. From gamer to racer the film adaptation of the popular video game, will it be a winning video game adaptation?
This is one story that is actually based on a true story. A story of a young man Jann Mardenborough (Archie Madekwe) a great video gamer who dreams of become a Gran Turismo racer. Using those gaming skills he will live his dream and drive the real GTA race in Japan.
You could say this feels a little cliched but visually pretty awesome too. It could be seen as a coming of age story as much it’s a game adaptation. The released synopsis is very basic leaves you thinking they’ll be more to this story than we’ve been told. Has this trailer possibly gave a bit too of story away? Regardless this actually looks not bad…
