Gran Turismo

Editor - Colby Parker Jr., ACE GRAN TURISMO editor Colby Parker Jr ACE has largely built his feature-film editing career on high-adrenaline action films, most notably for his work with director Peter Berg; including FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS (2004), PATRIOTS DAY (2016), DEEPWATER HORIZON (2016) and MILE 22 (2018). Colby even took a turn in the MCU, cutting ANT-MAN (2015) alongside Dan Lebental ACE. Bypassing the usual assistant editor route, Parker began his professional journey cutting music videos, which he credits with helping to build his editorial chops for the action genre. The true story of a team of unlikely underdogs -- a working-class gamer, a former race-car driver, and an idealistic motorsport executive, GRAN TURISMO is directed by Neill Blomkamp from a screenplay by Jason Hall and Zach Baylin. Produced by Columbia Pictures, PlayStation Productions, and 2.0 Entertainment, it is based on the racing simulation video game series of the same name and tells the true story of Jann Mardenborough, a teenage Gran Turismo player who became a professional race car driver.
