Veteran actor Anthony Hopkins will be seen in Maserati: The Brothers<\/i>, an English-language biopic directed by Bobby Moresco about the family behind the high-performance automobiles that, along with Ferrari and Lamborghini, Italy is known for.<\/p>\n

As per Variety<\/i>, Hopkins will play an Italian financier who bankrolls the Maserati brothers. The Maserati<\/i> movie is produced by Italy\u2019s Andrea Iervolino via his new film and TV outfit called The Andrea Iervolino Company.<\/p>\n

Iervolino\u2019s previous company, ILBE Group, in which he was partnered with Monika Bacardi, produced the Bobby Moresco-directed biopic Lamborghini: The Man Behind the Legend<\/i> and was also among the producers of Michael Mann\u2019s Ferrari<\/i> starring Adam Driver and Pen\u00e9lope Cruz.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving Anthony Hopkins on board is a dream come true,\u201d Iervolino said in a statement. \u201cHis unparalleled ability to embody complex characters will undoubtedly elevate our story, and we are eager to see how he brings depth to his role.\u201d<\/p>\n

More details regarding the project have not been disclosed yet. Maserati<\/i> was founded in 1914 in a garage in the central Italian city of Bologna by three brothers: Alfieri, Ettore, and Ernesto. The trident that is the company\u2019s emblem is a replica of the one found in the Fountain of Neptune in Bologna.<\/p>\n

From early on, the company, which is now known for exotic luxury cars, was tied to the world of auto racing. Maserati\u2019s first Grand Prix racing car, called \u201cType 26,\u201d is the vehicle that Alfieri Maserati was driving in the 1927 Messina Cup race when he had a near-fatal crash, as per Variety<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Alfieri died a few years later, on March 3, 1932, at the age of 44 from complications related to that accident. In 1937, the brothers, while remaining involved, sold a controlling stake in the company that is now owned by Fiat.<\/p>\n
