Michael Fassbender has gotten behind the wheel to narrate the racing film 1. The Formula One documentary is produced by Exclusive Media’s Spitfire Pictures. “We are honored that Michael has agreed to lend his voice to our film. He is one of the most talented actors in the world today as well as being a Formula One fan,” said Exclusive co-chair Nigel Sinclair and fellow producer Michael Shevloff today. Flat Out Films and Diamond Docs are also producing. Directed by Paul Crowder and written by Mark Monroe, 1 takes a very up close and on the track approach to the racing sport. It also features appearances by some Formula One champions like Sir Jackie Stewart, Mario Andretti, Lewis Hamilton, Michael Schumacher and Damon Hill. Paul Crowder and Mark Monroe are repped by ICM Partners. Michael Fassbender is repped by CAA and Troika.

Big things have small beginnings.
This should be really slick. There hasn’t been a really great racing film since Grand Prix (-well, maybe “Senna”, that was pretty good).
Anyone know what happened Ronnie Howard’s racing film based apon Ford’s rivalry with Ferrari back in the sixties?? Really looking forward to that one!
“Senna” was more than pretty good. and definitely better than Grand Prix as it was real. No need to manufacture rivalry.
Can’t wait for this! How cool to get Fassbender to narrate. Good catch for Exclusive.
Where is Fernando Alonso?
Ron Howard’s “Rush” is currently scheduled for a September 2013 release.
This is premiering Thursday night in Austin, TX to kick off the USGP weekend. Tickets are sold out. Wish I jumped on them when I had the chance.
Is this film going to be available for purchase on dvd at any time? Thanks
