What is Drive about?
Based on the novel of the same name by James Sallis, Drive follows Gosling’s The Driver, a Hollywood stunt driver by day with a secret job by night: a getaway driver for criminals.
Sony’s synopsis for Driver reads: “Though a loner by nature, “Driver” can’t help falling in love with his beautiful neighbor Irene, a young mother dragged into a dangerous underworld by the return of her ex-convict husband. After a heist goes wrong, Driver finds himself driving defense for the girl he loves, tailgated by a syndicate of deadly serious criminals. Soon, he realizes the gangsters are after more than the bag of cash and is forced to shift gears and go on the offense.”
Driver also starred Carey Mulligan as Irene Gabriel, Bryan Cranston as Shannon, Oscar Isaac as Standard Gabriel, Ron Perlman as Izzy, Albert Brooks as Bernie Rose, Christina Hendricks as Blanche, James Biberi as Chris Cook, Russ Tamblyn as Doc, and Kaden Leos as Benicio Gabriel.
Refn directed the feature based on a screenplay by Hossein Amini.
