Sony is hosting advanced screenings of the Gran Turismo movie for PS Plus subscribers, but only at select cinemas. A promotional email sent out to UK members includes a link to reserve tickets on 8th August at various Showcase, Vue, and Cineworld theatres across the country, a day ahead of the film’s British release on 9th August. The US release will follow on 11th August. It looks like there’ll be showings in Birmingham, Manchester, Cardiff, Bristol, and Sheffield – among others.
Obviously you still have to pay for the tickets – this isn’t a freebie like other PS Plus perks. It looks like there are only single showings, too, so we assume once the theatres are filled, you’re out of luck. We had a brief browse at Birmingham’s Star City, however, and it looked like there were still plenty of seats left, so there’s probably not enormous demand for this opportunity.
We’ll contact Sony and see if it’s offering a similar promotion across Europe and the rest of the world. Either way, it does feel like the marketing is beginning to ramp up for this movie now, after a fairly low-key build-up over the past few months. Are you planning to watch this one when it rolls out? Buckle up in the comments section below.

Have you ever witnessed a ring of fire in the sky? It happens because of the solar eclipse. A solar eclipse occurs when the Sun, the Moon, and Earth line up, either fully or partially. Depending on how they align, eclipses provide a unique, exciting view of either the Sun or the Moon. According to NASA, "A solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, casting a shadow on Earth that either fully or partially blocks the Sun's light in some areas,"
David Harbour might not be a former racing legend in real life, but he did get an extremely hands on experience for Gran Turismo.
Critics have criticised the Gran Turismo movie for allegedly reframing a real-life incident in which a spectator died.
The first reviews of the Gran Turismo movie are in, and the response is mixed.
A little way into the movie Gran Turismo, the unlikely brand extension of Sony’s sim racing games accidentally satirizes itself. “This whole thing is a marketing extravaganza!” excitable auto executive Danny Moore (Orlando Bloom) shouts at salty racing coach Jack Salter (David Harbour). They’re aboard a helicopter wheeling above a racetrack, where Salter’s students in the GT Academy — a real-life program intended to turn players of Sony’s Gran Turismo games into actual racing drivers — are being put through their paces. The helicopter is an absurd bit of theater for the TV cameras, and Salter knows it. But he’s powerless to resist the marketing apparatus around him.
The latest free update for Gran Turismo 7 will add four new cars to the game, and one of which isn’t conventional. Players will now have the option to purchase a 1958 C1 Chevrolet Corvette, a 2020 Maserati MC20, the Toyota GR Corolla MORIZO Edition ’22, and finally a 2021 Toyota Ambulance Himedic. The Toyota GR Corolla MORIZO Edition will be available for players to sample in Round 7 of the Toyota Gazoo Racing GT Cup on August 27. It can also be driven in practice mode for testing. Those that do enter this cup and register a time in the Points Ranking will be gifted a car on August 28.
