Camille Delamarre to Direct Andrea Iervolino’s Sports Car Biopic ‘Bugatti: The Final Race’

Camille Delamarre will direct Andrea Iervolino’s upcoming sports car film Bugatti: The Final Race, according to Deadline. The project is described as an English-language story produced by Iervolino, who is also making a scriptwriting debut tied to the film’s creative development.

Deadline reports that the film will be based on the life of race car driver Ettore Bugatti. The announcement frames Bugatti: The Final Race as a biographical account centered on Bugatti’s career, with Iervolino serving as producer and writing the screenplay for the first time in that role.

Delamarre, who has previously directed films including Brick Mansions, The Transporter Refueled, and Assassin Club, is set to bring his feature-film directing experience to the new title. Deadline characterizes the project as a sports car movie, positioning the story around racing and the figure of Bugatti.

Andrea Iervolino’s American company is producing the film, Deadline says. The report does not provide a release date, filming schedule, or casting details in the information available from the announcement.

The story’s core creative premise, as described by Deadline, is its focus on Ettore Bugatti, a figure identified in the report as a race car driver. The film is intended to be told in English, which the trade publication notes as a feature of the production’s plans.

While additional production details were not included in the Deadline notice, the announcement establishes the key creative team: Delamarre directing, Iervolino producing and writing, and the project’s biographical subject. The company producing the film is identified as the Andrea Iervolino American Company in the report.

For audiences and industry observers, the update highlights a common pattern in film development where an established director is paired with a producer who is stepping into screenwriting, potentially shaping the balance between storytelling and racing-focused elements. The next stage for the project will be additional updates on production timeline, locations, and distribution arrangements, none of which were specified in the initial report.
