Initial D
Available on Prime Video, Tubi TV, Plex
From directing team Andrew Lau and Alan Mak (Infernal Affairs trilogy), Initial D – Drift Racer features some of the most exciting driving scenes ever committed to film. A remake of the massively successful Initial D Manga comic, the drift sequences are filmed live without the use of CGI and Blue-Screen – and it shows. This UK version is enhanced by a pumping new soundtrack specially designed to get your blood racing as fast as the cars! Every morning for 5 years, 18 year old Takumi has been delivering tofu in his dad’s obsolescent Toyota AE86 (Trueno), winding through the tight bends of his mountainous route to work. Not only has he become an outstanding racer, but he has also unwittingly perfected the art of drifting. With the competitive bug well and truly under his skin, he competes in one hell-raising race after another, each more perilous and exciting than the first.
