Famous Hollywood actor Adam Driver experienced misfortune while filming a film called Ferrari. In the film, directed by Michael Mann, Adam Driver plays the role of Ferrari founder, Enzo Ferrari.
That opportunity should allow Adam Driver to try Ferrari cars firsthand. Including the classic Ferrari that has a legendary story.
Unfortunately, Ferrari actually forbade Adam Driver to try the cars they made. Even though in the film there are many scenes showing Enzo Ferrari driving the legendary Italian-made sports car.
“They (Ferrari) won’t let me drive their car for insurance reasons. They won’t even let me touch it because the cars are very expensive,” said Adam Driver at the Ferrari film press conference, Monday (4/9/2023) yesterday.
It is known that the Ferrari film directed by Michael Mann has just made a sneak peak for certain circles. The plan is for the film, which tells the story of the life of Ferrari founder, Enzo Ferrari, to be released globally in November 2023.
Besides Adam Driver, several other well-known film actors also took on roles such as Patrick Dempsey, Penelope Cruz, and Shailene Woodley.
Interestingly, unlike Adam Driver, Ferrari actually allowed Patrick Dempsey to directly drive the Ferrari cars used in the film. Autoevolution said this might happen because Ferrari knew that Patrick Dempsey, apart from being an actor, was also a sports car racer.
“Actually, before film production started, I tried a new Ferrari. But after that, they didn’t seem to believe me,” said Adam Driver.
Ferrari’s firm stance is not the first time this has happened. The Italian sports car company is not kidding when it comes to banning someone from driving their car.
Ferrari can even blacklist people they don’t like if they are caught treating their cars improperly, even if they are top celebrities. Some of them who have been blacklisted are Kim Kardashian, Justin Bieber, and Deadmau5.
