Renault’s All In A Twizy Over Big Screen Fame

HUMANS, not cars, are the usual stars of the silver screen, but Renault is clearly proud of the latest performance given by its quirky Twizy electric car.

The role call of Terry Gilliam's latest project should prove familiar to film buffs - Christoph Waltz, Matt Damon, Mélanie Thierry – although not all budding critics will be up to speed on the Twizy’s current body of work.

Gilliam's The Zero Theorem is the story of an eccentric and lonely IT genius, suffering from existential neurosis, and looking for the meaning of life. The story takes place in London, where the Twizy has invaded the streets of the city.

It’s difficult to miss the distinctive car, although there’s no word on whether its maker plans to put it forward for other roles in the future.
