That is why since Netflix a biographical series is being developed that promises to become the next big bet on the streaming platform.
The production, which is described as “Netflix’s most ambitious series in Latin America,” will be directed by Vincente Amorim, who previously directed films such as Yakuza Princess, Dirty Hearts, and Good.
About this project, Amorim, stated the following: “Action and emotion defined who Senna was and what this series will be. We will put the public in the driver’s seat, with Senna, in each of the cars he drove and try to reveal his genius while, at the same time, we strive to understand the man, to open a window into his personal life, his challenges and his incredibly victorious career in a rigged sport against non-Europeans.
