The Gran Turismo movie has a 2023 release date, and a plot

Sony’s forthcoming Gran Turismo film is apparently hitting theaters sooner than we might have expected — its scheduled for release on August 11th, 2023, according to a new report from Deadline. Neill Blomkamp is set to direct the film, which is supposed to be dependent on a accurate tale.

Very seriously. Here’s the official logline (aka quick summary) of the film, for every Deadline: “Based on a legitimate story, the film is the final wish fulfillment tale of a teenage Gran Turismo player whose gaming abilities gained a collection of Nissan competitions to grow to be an true expert race vehicle driver.” That means the movie probable pulls from the tale of anyone from the GT Academy, which let Gran Turismo pros compete to be part of a real-lifetime racing team sponsored by Nissan from 2008 until finally its past iteration in 2016. Deadline’s report does not consist of casting information.
