This trailer appeared in my YouTube feed.

According to the blurb, "The Kaiser is a cinematic short film that tells the untold story of Michael Schumacher’s rise... Shot with a bold, cinematic approach and driven by a commitment to authenticity, the film brings one of motorsport’s greatest stories to life in a way never seen before.

"Created as a proof of concept for a future feature film, The Kaiser blends real historical events with immersive storytelling, capturing the intensity, pressure, and humanity behind the helmet."

On first impressions, it doesn't look great. I reckon that the producers should've spent their time and money creating a documentary film in the style of 2010's Senna.

And was MS ever known as 'The Kaiser'? Not a nickname I've ever heard being used before, but maybe it's a Germany thing?

Looks similar to the Senna series on Netflix. Looks low budget but will give it a chance.

Me personally I'm waiting for a big budget biopic movie or series on Flavio Briatore set across the late 80s to the 1990s.

Directed by Martin Scorsese (He knows about italian gangsters) in the style of Wolf of Wall Street, would be epic biggrin
