Lee Pace Is John DeLorean in First Trailer for DRIVEN
Universal Pictures has released the first trailer for a new film called Driven, which tells a fictional account of the story of infamous businessman and automaker John DeLorean, who is played by Lee Pace.
The movie is described as a "fast-paced, comedic crime thriller of a bromance gone wrong” between John DeLorean and FBI informant Jim Hoffman, who is fantastically played by Jason Sudeikis. The story of John Delorean is certainly an interesting and crazy one, and this movie actually looks really good!
Set in the early 1980s California, the story follows the meteoric rise of the golden boy of the automotive industry, John DeLorean (Pace) and his iconic DeLorean Motor Company (DMC), through the eyes of his friendship with charming, ex-con pilot turned FBI informant, Jim Hoffman (Sudeikis). DeLorean turned to unsavory activities to save his financially troubled DeLorean Motor Company, and it was Hoffman who was all too willing to lure the car designer/engineer into a cocaine trafficking ring set up by the FBI.
The movie was directed by Nick Hamm (The Very Thought of You, Talk to Angels, The Hole, Godsend, Killing Bono, and The Journey), and it also stars Judy Greer, Isabel Arraiza, Corey Stoll, Justin Bartha, Michael Cudlitz, Tara Summers, and Iddo Goldberg.
Driven will be released on August 14th.
