You’ve seen the movie. Now a new archive has been launched that will unveil the making of Michael Mann’s 2023 blockbuster Ferrari.
The Enzo Ferrari biopic, which stars Adam Driver, Penélope Cruz and Shailene Woodley, focuses on events in the lead up to and during the final Mille Miglia, in 1957. More than 30 years in the making, the project became a personal quest for influential film-maker and car enthusiast Mann.
Now the director has chosen Ferrari to launch an archive that will eventually feature behind-the-scenes content for more of his movies. Twenty mini-documentaries about Ferrari are available to view behind a paywall. They include Mann and his actors’ work on character development from rehearsals through shooting, on-set design and art strategies, and how the replica cars were made.
