Amazon MGM Studios is developing a Formula One series that will feature British star Felicity Jones in the lead role.
Jones, known for critically-acclaimed performances in movies such as ‘Like Crazy’, ‘The Theory of Everything’, ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’ and ‘On the Basis of Sex’, will also executive produce the show titled ‘One’, PTI reported from quoting entertainment news outlet Variety.
According to the report, Amazon MGM Studios is developing the project for streaming service Prime Video, although it has not been officially ordered yet.
‘One’ will focus on a failing family-owned racing team, led by Jones’ character, as it contends with fierce personalities, ever-changing rivals and multi-million-dollar stakes.
Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby, the Oscar nominated screenwriters of Alfonso Cuaron’s ‘Children of Men’ as well as the first Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movie ‘Iron Man’, will pen and executive produce the series.
The duo earlier created and executive produced ‘The Expanse’ for Prime Video.
