"Ferrari" also portrays the dangerous reality of Formula 1 racers in the 1950s (when the film is set), often in graphic detail. But Enzo (played by Driver) and his relationships with his wife (Cruz), his mistress (Shailene Woodley) and their child, and his racers are the primary focus of the film.
Here's what the cast of "Ferrari" looks like compared to the real-life people they're portraying.
