If you were to ask me of the movies I was looking forward to most this year that are still to come, it would have to be Elysium, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, Captain Phillips and this movie right here… Ron Howard’s Rush!
I don’t claim to be an expert into racing legends James Hunt and Niki Lauda but i’m looking forward to finding out more about them when Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Brühl take on the roles in this new action packed F1 feast!
If you’ve not seen any trailers for the movie, then you need to click this way to have a watch as I think it’s set to blow our socks off…. at least I hope it is!
Set against the sexy and glamorous golden age of Formula 1 racing, Rush portrays the exhilarating true story of two of the greatest rivals the world has ever witnessed—handsome English playboy Hunt and his methodical, brilliant opponent, Lauda. Taking us into their personal lives on and off the track, Rush follows the two drivers as they push themselves to the breaking point of physical and psychological endurance, where there is no shortcut to victory and no margin for error. If you make one mistake, you die.
Here’s a couple of new posters from the movie which come from IMP Awards. The second one seems bit silly that Chris Hemsworth has completely stolen the limelight but i think it’s very clever marketing tieing into the movie itself showing how much James Hunt wanted to be in the limelight with Lauda fading into the background.
Rush is released in the UK September 13th and also stars Olivia Wilde, Natalie Dormer, and Lee Asquith-Coe. Anyone else looking forward to this one as much as me? Let me know in the comments.
