After this summer’s blockbuster film highlighting the rivalry between Formula 1 drivers Niki Lauda and James Hunt Rush culminating with the 1976 Japanese Grand Prix, Hollywood intends to follow suit on yet another automotive storyline.
This time it is a film that narrates the career of the great Carroll Shelby who died last year at the age of 89. Fittingly, Mr. Shelby is considered a legend in the automotive world.
Actor Tom Cruise will play this colorful character.
The movie will be called Go Like Hell and will be directed by Joseph Kosinksi. Expect to see it released in theaters sometime in 2015.
