Los Angeles, CA – January 24, 2024 – Award-winning film studio NEON announced today that it will release Michael Mann’s “Ferrari” on premium digital purchase and rental starting January 23rd. The film, which stars Adam Driver, Penélope Cruz, and Shailene Woodley, will be available on Blu-ray™ and DVD starting March 12th. The home release comes on the heels of “Ferrari”’s holiday season theatrical run in the US and successful international launch, garnering significant critical acclaim for Mann’s direction and Driver and Cruz’s performances.
“Ferrari” is set in the summer of 1957. Behind the spectacle of Formula 1, ex-racer Enzo Ferrari is in crisis. Bankruptcy threatens the factory he and his wife, Laura built from nothing ten years earlier. Their volatile marriage has been battered by the loss of their son, Dino, a year earlier. Ferrari struggles to acknowledge his son Piero with Lina Lardi. 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.
NEON acquired “Ferrari” ahead of its 2023 Venice Film Festival world premiere. It made its North American premiere at the New York Film Festival. The film opened on Christmas Day in the U.S. and after its London premier, progressively opened in 32 total territories internationally to strong box office results.
The Blu-ray™ and DVD release of the film will feature behind-the-scenes extras, including “The Mille Miglia” and “Building Perfection,” which explore the historic race and cars behind “Ferrari,” as well as in-depth interviews with the award-winning cast and crew.
Recent and upcoming NEON releases include Ava DuVernay’s “Origin,” which had the fourth-highest per-screen average of 2023 for its qualifying run and opened wide on January 19; Palme d’Or winner “Anatomy of a Fall” from Justine Triet; Alice Rohrwacher’s “La Chimera”; Wim Wenders’ “Perfect Days,” the Japanese selection for ‘Best International Film’ at the Academy Awards® this year; and “Robot Dreams” from Pablo Berger.
