South African director Neill Blomkamp is set to direct a Gran Turismo movie for Columbia Pictures. Deadline first broke the news of a potential GT film in May , but on Tuesday, Sony announced a release date for the film: August 11, 2023.
Video games don't often make great movies, though I still have a soft spot for Super Mario Bros , even if the elevator scene with the koopas ruined slow dances at weddings for me forever. Although Blomkamp is no stranger to horror , the GT movie is unlikely to feature an army of subterranean dinosaurs.
Instead, the plot involves a teenager GT gamer whose skills see him through a series of competitions to become a professional racing driver.
