Gerard McMurray, the director behind The First Purge and Burning Sands, will helm the movie, which is based on his original idea, the streamer said in a statement. The story will follow a Formula One racing prodigy who is forced to become a getaway driver to save the only family he has left. McMurray will also produce the film through his recently formed production company Buppie Productions. Jane Rosenthal, De Niro and Berry Welsh are other producers. Boyega most recently starred in Steve McQueen’s acclaimed anthology film series Small Axe. He is currently in production on They Cloned Tyrone with Jamie Foxx.
