PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum - "Opie" to Direct Formula One Movie

A Possible Sucessor to Frankenheimer's "Grand Prix?"

"Rush" is not the only recent attempt by Hollywood to make a Formula One movie set in that period: Steven Spielberg has been developing a biopic about Hunt. Still, there remain questions for a big-budget project -- re-creating auto races doesn't come cheap -- that centers on a sport that has never captivated American audiences. A huge following around the world, though, will of course help the movie internationally.
