Actor Felicity Jones is all set to headline One, a series based on Formula One which is being developed by Amazon MGM studios. While the series is in development with the studio, it has not been officially ordered yet.
This will be Formula One's first sanctioned scripted series and is set to revolve around a failing family-owned racing team which is led by Jones' character. The series is also set to delve into their high-stakes competitors and the rivalries that they have with each other.
Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby, the Oscar-nominated screenwriters of Alfonso Cuaron's Children of Men as well as the first Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movie Iron Man, will pen and executive produce the series. The duo earlier created and executive produced The Expanse for Prime Video.
Apart from headlining the show, Jones, known for critically-acclaimed performances in movies such as Like Crazy, The Theory of Everything, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and On the Basis of Sex, will also executive produce the show.
Bedrock Entertainment will produce One. Jones will also produce alongside her brother Alexander Jones for their Piecrust Pictures banner.
Jones recently earned a Golden Globes nomination for The Brutalist, co-starring Oscar winner Adrien Brody. She will also be seen in feature films Night Train and Oh. What. Fun.
