Ntertain Studios Announces A New Docuseries About Formula 1 Legend Juan Pablo Montoya
NTERTAIN STUDIOS, the production company behind captivating Latin narratives like "Los Montaner" and "La Firma," announces the development and production of a new docuserie about the illustrious career of Colombian Formula 1 legend, Juan Pablo Montoya.
This unscripted series will be directed by Fernando Villena and produced by a team of acclaimed talents including Lex Borrero and Santiago Zapata, in co-production with Mariano Zabaleta (Summa Sports & Entertainment), Dubraska Arias (Rockefeller), Jonathan Wil, and Hernán Salama (Scarpetta Media). The project, whose production will soon begin, will delve into Montoya's achievements, who has set records in several top racing divisions such as CART, IndyCar, F3000, F1, and NASCAR. Beyond his spectacular career, the documentary also focuses on his life after retirement and his dedication as a mentor to his son's emerging career.
"Sharing my story alongside NTERTAIN is a privilege. I think it's great that people know where I come from, what I've done, and what I've learned. I hope it inspires not only racing fans but anyone who believes in pursuing their dreams against all odds," said Juan Pablo Montoya.
As part of NTERTAIN STUDIOS' strategic expansion into various film and television genres and its commitment to expanding Latin representation, the series was proudly announced at an exclusive cocktail event held at Soho Beach House in Miami on Wednesday, May 1, prior to the 2024 Miami Grand Prix.
"As we expand our catalog to include sports, NTERTAIN STUDIOS continues to highlight dynamic stories of Latin talent that resonate globally," said Lex Borrero, CEO of NTERTAIN STUDIOS and executive producer. "Juan Pablo Montoya's journey is not just about racing; it's a powerful narrative of dedication and legacy."
"Juan Pablo Montoya was my first contact with motorsport and that of many Colombians, but what has always inspired me most about him is his never-give-up attitude and his determination to succeed against any obstacle. This story about perseverance and commitment to a profession will inspire audiences of all ages and nationalities," added Santiago Zapata, executive producer.
