Peugeot 308 stars with Scarlett Johansson in ‘Lucy’

Starring in its first big screen role, the new Peugeot 308 appears alongside leading actors Scarlett Johansson and Morgan Freeman in ‘Lucy’, Luc Besson’s latest film, which is currently showing in the Philippines. The film tells the story of a young student who, as a result of circumstances beyond her control, finds her mental capabilities grow infinitely. She then ‘colonizes’ her brain and acquires unlimited powers.

Following Besson’s well-known film ‘Taxi’ (1998) and his more recent film ‘3 Days to Kill’ (March 2014) starring Kevin Costner, ‘Lucy’ is the third feature-length film in which the famous director has honoured a Peugeot with a role. Generating over 138,000 orders since its launch in 2013, the Peugeot 308 fitted straight into this science-fiction film: the protagonist, ‘Lucy’ takes the wheel of a new 308 during a breathtaking high-speed chase through the streets of Paris. The 308 once again shows off its matchless efficiency, dynamic performance and road holding by racing down the capital’s famous rue de Rivoli.
