UPDATED, 7:45 AM: “Two objects cannot occupy the same point in space at the same moment in time.” So begins the official trailer for Michael Mann’s Ferrari, which finds automotive mogul Enzo Ferrari at a personal and professional crisis point in his life. “The corner races at you, you have perhaps a crisis of identity,” says Adam Driver’s Ferrari. “Am I a sportsman, or a competitor?” he asks.

PREVIOUSLY, August 30: “If you get into one of my cars, you get in to win.”
Adam Driver speaks those words in the first teaser for Michael Mann’s Ferrari — and those are the only words spoken in it. The rest is revving engines, shifting gears and more revving engines. Watch it above.
It is the summer of 1957. Behind the spectacle of Formula 1, ex-racer Enzo Ferrari (Driver) is in crisis. Bankruptcy threatens the factory he and his wife, Laura (Penélope Cruz), built from nothing 10 years earlier. Their volatile marriage has been battered by the loss of their son a year earlier, and Ferrari struggles to acknowledge his son with Lina Lardi (Shailene Woodley). Meanwhile, his drivers’ passion to win pushes them to the edge as they launch into the treacherous 1,000-mile race across Italy, the Mille Miglia.
Patrick Dempsey, Sarah Gordon, Gabriel Leone and Jack O’Connell also star in Mann’s vehicle, which was scripted by Troy Kennedy Martin. The pic has its world premiere Thursday at the Venice Film Festival, followed by a Christmas Day stateside release via Neon.
