Rotten Tomatoes recently released a featurette diving into Gran Turismo: Based on a True Story and its true story about a gamer who becomes a racer. Born from PlayStation Productions and Sony Pictures, the film focuses on real-life Gran Turismo player Jann Mardenborough, who won a PlayStation competition to learn how to become a real racecar driver, and his successful racecar career.

The featurette showcases clips of the interaction between Jann (Archie Madekwe) and his father (Djimon Hounsou) and how their relationship dynamic is tense from Jann’s interest in racing games and real-life racecar racing.

Gran Turismo is based on the unbelievable true story of a team of unlikely underdogs – a struggling working-class gamer (Archie Madekwe), a failed former racecar driver (David Harbour), and an idealistic motorsport executive (Orlando Bloom). Together, they risk it all to take on the most elite sport in the world. Gran Turismo is an inspiring, thrilling, and action-packed story that proves that nothing is impossible when you’re fueled from within
