Movie Trailer for Gran Turismo Draws on its Video Game Origins for an Engaging Storyline

The first official trailer for Gran Turismo – the movie – has been released, giving fans a glimpse into the upcoming film’s plot and introducing key characters played by actors Archie Madekwe, David Harbour, and Orlando Bloom. This latest addition to the long list of movies adapted from popular video games will hit theatres on August 11th.

The film centers around Jack Salter (played by David Harbour), who is a racing trainer preparing a group of young gamers for the very different dynamics of actual car racing. Jann Mardenborough (Archie Madekwe) is shown playing Gran Turismo 7, the game which inspired the movie, on an impressive home gaming setup and is quite good at it. The film is inspired by the true story of Jann Mardenborough, a young gamer who transitioned from gaming to professional racing.

The trailer features Danny Moore (Orlando Bloom), a motorsports marketing executive, based on Darren Cox, the real-life creator and director of GT Academy. Moore expects Salter to train the young gamers and turn them into proper race car drivers. The trailer highlights the game’s focus on realism and true simulation, showing how a gamer experienced in Gran Turismo games can potentially adapt to actual car racing. The film’s use of the actual game itself and its focus on realism is an interesting approach to adapting a video game into a movie.

The trailer introduces viewers to the key characters and gives insight into the plot, that’s true to the spirit of the game. The Nissan GTR and various other motorsport-grade vehicles featured in the games also feature in the trailer. Gran Turismo releases in theatres on August 11, 2022.
