‘Ferrari’ producer defends casting of Adam Driver against “cultural appropriation” criticism
Ferrari has defended the casting of Adam Driver against claims of cultural appropriation.Andrea Iervolino, an Italian-Canadian film producer on the Enzo Ferrari biopic, rebuked claims made against Driver’s casting by actor Pierfrancesco Favino, who questioned why Italian actors were not cast more often in Hollywood films.In response, Iervolino said Italy had failed in comparison to other countries in producing Hollywood stars with worldwide visibility, citing examples like Javier Bardem and Antonio Banderas from Spain, and Marion Cotillard and Vincent Cassel from France.Speaking at the festival (via the Telegraph), Ierovlino said: “Italian cinema needs to look beyond Italy and come up with synergies with the international film industry, which wants to invest in Italian icons. Films like Ferrari, which will be distributed in 150 countries, promote Italy and Italian genius.”The producer called on the Italian film industry to “make films based on stories that speak to the whole world, with international stars who work side by side with our own talent”.In his original comments, Favino, who stars in a movie called Comandante which opened this year’s festival, asked why actors on the level of Toni Servillo (The Great Beauty) were not cast more often in Hollywood productions.“There’s an issue of cultural appropriation,” Favino said.“Instead, the parts are given to foreign actors who are distant from the story’s real protagonists, starting with the exotic accents,” he added.

trailer for Dune: Part Two has arrived – you can watch it above.Offering a more detailed look at Denis Villeneuve’s second chapter of Frank Herbert’s sci-fi classic, the trailer gives us glimpses of all-out war as Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) unites with Chani (Zendaya) and the Fremen, while seeking revenge against the conspirators who destroyed his family.“Facing a choice between the love of his life and the fate of the universe, Paul must prevent a terrible future only he can foresee,” the official synopsis reads.The trailer also gives us our first look at Christopher Walken’s Emperor Shaddam IV, a character who did not feature in the first film.Dune: Part Two, which will be released in cinemas on November 3, also stars Rebecca Ferguson, Josh Brolin, Austin Butler, Florence Pugh, Dave Bautista, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Léa Seydoux, Stellan Skarsgård, Charlotte Rampling, and Javier Bardem.Dune: Part Two was officially announced last October after the first film earned more than $40million at the US box office on its opening weekend. Dune was nominated for 10 Oscars and won six, including Best Sound, Visual Effects, Production Design, Music, Editing and Cinematography.On what to expect from the sequel, Villeneuve previously told ET Canada: “I cannot say nothing about the movie – I don’t like to talk about projects as I am doing them – but it’s probably going to be the biggest challenge of my career, again, because it’s even more complex than Part One.”In a four-star review of Part One, NME wrote: “After two hours and 35 minutes, Dune‘s lack of closure feels irksome to say the least.
