Experience the Thrill
Put your abilities to the test in a special giveaway event commemorating the imminent debut of Gran Turismo. The movie’s creators are extending an invitation to all aficionados to partake in this extravaganza, offering them the prospect of securing unique advantages such as early screenings and even the opportunity to receive a complimentary code for downloading Gran Turismo 7 on the PlayStation. Invitations for the chance to catch a preview of the film before its theatrical launch are already in progress, with two more weeks remaining and a total of 22 screenings scheduled across various cities in the United States.

Prove Your Speed
If you believe you possess the requisite speed and skill, the Leaderboard Challenge presents the ultimate opportunity to flaunt your talents by competing with adept rivals. This challenge involves vying for a place on the film’s social media leaderboard, with the top contenders emerging victorious. Each week, participants will receive a trivia question via text, and the first ten individuals to respond accurately and swiftly will secure a coveted spot on the film’s online presence. Moreover, a select few from the leaderboard achievers will receive a message containing a free code to download Gran Turismo 7 on the PlayStation.

Release Date Update
Originally slated for a theatrical release on August 11, Gran Turismo has recently adjusted its premiere date to August 25 due to ongoing strikes by the WGA and SAG-AFTRA. This decision likely stems from various reasons, including Sony’s strategy to space out its release slate and the inability to conduct final-week promotional interviews with the main cast due to union regulations. Nonetheless, the film’s delay is only by a span of two weeks, assuring fans anticipating the Archie Madekwe, David Harbour, and Orlando Bloom-led production based on the real-life story of racer Jann Mardenborough a swift transition into the high-stakes universe of Gran Turismo.
