Penelope Cruz “cried” because of the “sad energy” in Laura Ferrari’s bedroom. The 49-year-old actress found a visit to the apartment where her ‘Ferrari’ alter ego lived incredibly helpful for informing her role in the biopic because it made her understand how the woman felt following the end of her marriage and the death of her son. She told Empire magazine: “It was a lot of colours that were supposed to be happy but to me it had a very sad energy. “I started to cry, understanding what it would be like for this woman spending so much time hiding in that room, missing her son and missing what s...

Adam Driver “craves some kind of structure” in his life. The 40-year-old actor – who has two children with wife Joanne Tucker – portrays Enzo Ferrari in his new movie ‘Ferrari’ and he related to what he read in the car maker’s diaries when doing his research because he is also a “creature of habit”, which he believes is due to the “wild and inconsistent” nature of his career.
