Ron Howard's Rush looks like an incredible movie. The more I see of the film, the better it looks. Universal Pictures has released two new international posters for the film featuring Chris Hemsworth as Formula One racer James Hunt and Daniel Brühl as his rival Niki Lauda. The movie is based on a true story that focuses on the intense rivalry of these two drivers. I've never been into F1 racing, but this sure like a fantastically intense story.
Rush races into theaters on September 20th, 2013. You can check out the latest trailer for the film here, and the synopsis is below:
RUSH is an upcoming biographical action-drama film directed by two-time Oscar winner Ron Howard (A Beautiful Mind, Frost/Nixon), who teams once again with fellow two-time Oscar nominee, writer Peter Morgan (Frost/Nixon, The Queen), about the 1976 Formula One season and the rivalry between drivers James Hunt and Niki Lauda. The film stars Chris Hemsworth (The Avengers) as the charismatic Englishman James Hunt and Daniel Brühl (Inglourious Basterds) as the disciplined Austrian perfectionist Niki Lauda, whose clashes on the Grand Prix racetrack epitomized the contrast between these two extraordinary characters, a distinction reflected in their private lives. Olivia Wilde (TRON: Legacy) and Alexandra Maria Lara (The Reader) also star in the film.
