Dads, start your engines: The new Ferrari trailer is finally here

This latest trailer is heavy on racing and drama, featuring some of the most kinetic camera work of Mann’s career. With swooping helicopter shots, intense closeups, and a quaking hood cam, Mann does his darnedest to get the viewer in the driver’s seat. Given that he only has two minutes and 26 seconds to get us there, we’ll call the trailer a success.

Ferrari is Mann’s first film in nearly a decade. Mann, the patron saint of dads who stand in front of the TV whenever the bank heist from Heat plays on TNT, is shaking off the failure of Blackhat; a failure of both the audience who still haven’t given that techno-thriller its due, and, sure, a failure of editing, considering Mann’s semi-incomprehensible recut. However, despite Blackhat’s domestic box office returns, a dismal $8 million, it’s been something of a hit on Netflix, so maybe the combination of Chris Hemsworth, a screwdriver, and body armor made of magazines has a home on streaming. Nevertheless, for the first time since 2015, we’ll see the words “Directed by Michael Mann” on screens, and isn’t that reason enough to check this one out? Yes. Yes, it is.

Ferrari parks in theaters this Christmas.
