The director of 'Rush', Ron Howard, writer Peter Morgan and main stars Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Bruhl discuss the car-racing movie's themes in a short featurette.
'The James Hunt/Niki Lauda rivalry is one of the greatest in all of sports', Ron explains. 'Their story is so remarkable that you could only do it if it was true because people wouldn't quite believe it.' Chris elaborates on the story, without giving anything away, 'The film tracks right up until the end of the 1976 season where their rivalry comes to a dramatic head', while Daniel adds, 'It's about friendship, it's about fear, overcoming fear, about rivals who push each other beyond their limits.'
