Blue Bullet

A once-great but now persecuted Jewish racecar driver teams up with a hard-partying divorced socialite — and together, they launch a tiny, improbable team to take on Hitler’s mighty Mercedes juggernauts. Based on a true story.

Jon’s a feature screenwriter who’s sold to Netflix and has had other projects optioned by and in development at Range, A/Vantage, Temple Hill and Jadis. When he’s not writing, he loves spending time with his wife and three kids - camping, traveling or playing endless baseball together.
