The Formula follows a Formula One racing prodigy who is forced to become a getaway driver to save the only family he has left.
John Boyega (Attack The Block) and Robert De Niro (The Irishman) are attached to star, with Boyega playing the role of the racing prodigy in Netflix latest original movie.
Gerard McMurray (The First Purge) will write, direct and produce via his new production company Buppie Productions. De Niro will also produce.
The film comes as part of The Irishman producing duo Jane Rosenthal and Berry Welsh’s Netflix deal to develop original material.
Sounds like Netflix has another exciting project on its hands. The Formula seems like one a film that could easily spin-off into a franchise of its own.
