The composer of the film's score, Daniel Pemberton, gave some details on what we can expect from the film during an interview with Collider.He said,“I think the thing that's interesting about the film is it really gets you into the madness of what motor racing is. How motor racing started and why motor racing exists is crazy. Around that period, your friends are dying all the time. The film deals with a lot of grief as much as it does racing. The film is a complex drama with some really awesome racing sequences.”Who will star in Ferrari?The first few looks of the movie featuring Adam Driver, as seen on the film's official Instagram page, have already caught a lot of attention. It will be interesting to see seasoned actors like Adam Driver, Penelope Cruz, Shailene Woodle, and Gabriel Leone drive the film with director Michael Mann leading the team.
