A biopic on the life of four-times World Champion Alain Prost is apparently underway in France, with the film's producers scheduling a 2017 release.
The film, simply titled "Prost", will depict the life and times of the great French driver, from his childhood to his ultimate racing season in 1993.
Needless to say, Prost's gripping rivalry with Ayrton Senna - whose life was well documented in the British film "Senna" released in 2010 - will feature prominently in the screenplay.
It has been announced that the film shall be directed by Julien Leclercq while the role of Prost will be played by French actor Guillaume Gouix.
Alain prost, who is 61-years-old today, has signed off on the project and has accepted to work closely with the production, providing input and feedback on his successful life's trails and tribulation.
