Jessica Alba’s Role in 'Maserati: The Brothers' — From Action to Auto Legends, and It’s Intriguing
What to know about the star’s surprising new role.
Maserati: The Brothers is an upcoming biographical sports drama directed by Robert Moresco that chronicles the founding of the Maserati automotive dynasty. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Italy, the story promises a mix of high-octane ambition, family loyalty, and the glamour of a brand that would become a global icon.
Alba Enters the World of Maserati
Jessica Alba steps into the role of Sandra, a key figure whose presence adds emotional weight and intrigue to the Maserati narrative. For fans who know her from sleek action roles in Sin City and Fantastic Four, seeing Alba in a rich, character-driven period drama feels like a welcome curveball. There’s a certain thrill in watching actors reinvent themselves — and here, Alba seems poised to surprise.
A Star-Studded Crew Beneath Italy’s Sun
And Alba won’t be doing it alone. Maserati: The Brothers brings together a powerhouse ensemble: Michele Morrone as Alfieri Maserati, Anthony Hopkins, Al Pacino, Andy García.
Filming kicked off in late 2024 across cinematic Italian locations — Modena, Bologna, and Rome’s Cinecittà studios — making it as much a love letter to Italy as it is to the Maserati legacy. As someone who’s followed film productions for years, it’s hard not to be drawn in by the sheer pedigree of this cast and the romantic allure of its settings.
Why This Role Matters for Alba
Famous for roles in action and sci-fi films, Alba is now taking on a story rooted in history and tradition. It’s a chance to show a different side of her acting — one that focuses less on stunts and more on character and emotion.
