The streaming giant will be producing a six-part series about the life of F1 legend Ayrton Senna, exploring his personal life and family relationships.
Targeted at the Latin American audience, the show will be filmed in Portuguese with Brazilian actor Gabriel Leone cast to play the three-time world champion.

Leone will be a popular casting choice throughout Latin America with the 29-year-old actor already beloved across the region thanks to his starring role in the Brazilian action series 'Dom'.
