BMW-made The Calm movie stars the i7 M70 xDrive, Uma Thurman, and Pom Klementieff
BMW made a short film. It's called The Calm. It stars the BMW i7 M70 xDrive, Pom Klementieff from the Guardians of the Galaxy series, and Uma Thurman from the Kill Bill series. It's directed by Sam Hargrave (Extraction) and executive produced by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick). The soundtrack is made by Hans Zimmer.
The Calm will have its world premiere at the 76th Cannes Film Festival in France, where audiences will get "an enthralling dose of Hollywood action" for the full seven minutes of the film. The premiere will take place on May 17 in the rear of an i7, on the 31.3-inch BMW Theatre Screen, which extends down from the headliner and spreads out horizontally across virtually the full width of the interior.

BMW Films presents The Calm - world’s first movie to premiere in a car
BMW isn’t new to filmmaking, in fact, the company ventured into the movie business long before YouTube was a thing. The company made The Hire, it was a series of 8 movies and it was released online before the world heard of social media, and fast internet connection was as rare as a 4-leaf clover.
The Calm follows in the footsteps of the legacy set by The Hire and uses the same recipe - a star-studded cast, award-winning producers and directors, coupled with an action-filled script. The result is a short movie full of tension, great scenery, and of course plenty of driving stunts with the latest BMW i7 being the real star of the show.
It’s quite refreshing to see Pom Klementieff playing a secret agent and dishing out a proper beating to wanna-be hijackers. She stays calm and collected as she fends off villains chasing her on electric motorcycles. When eventually she makes it to a rendezvous point, she finds Uma Thurman who clearly was busy putting more villains to sleep - or was she?
Directed by Sam Hargrave (Marvel Cinematic Universe) and produced by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick) the movie is a blast to watch. The main role of course is played by the BMW i7 M70 xDrive and its 660 hp AWD powertrain. The car has no issues outrunning the pursuit and handles rather well despite its serious weight. On top of that there’s plenty of room in the rear for two people to have a proper fight - have a look for yourself:

Nice. I’m not a fan of the prism look though.

BMW 740i review: mind-boggling cabin, serene ride and surprisingly easy to pilot
To top it off the car returned consumption figures of 9.5l/100km after a week of highway and urban driving.
When people talk of piloting a car, that’s what it’s like driving the BMW 740i. At first the size and technology can be a bit intimidating but it’s such an impressive and easy to drive car that you quickly understand why the rich and famous want one and considering it’s priced at R2 247 751 it’s not the kind of money they would baulk at.
It comes with a two-year/unlimited warranty and a five-year/100 000km maintenance plan.
