A new film set for production in Italy next month will recount the remarkable true story that launched Maserati, one of the world’s most renowned luxury car brands. With Jessica Alba and veteran actors Anthony Hopkins, Michele Morrone, and Andy Garcia starring, “Maserati: The Brothers” aims to bring the pioneering Italian entrepreneurs behind the iconic name to life on the big screen.
Directed by Bobby Moresco, known for his work on “Crash,” the film will focus on brothers Alfieri, Ettore, and Ernesto Maserati, who founded the company in 1914 in a small garage workshop in Bologna. There they pursued their shared passion and ambition to innovate in the growing automotive industry. While their early efforts met with success racing prototypes, the story also grappled with personal tragedy that has become part of Maserati’s legacy.
Alfieri Maserati’s fatal crash during the 1927 Messina Cup race at age 44 will feature prominently in the film.
