George Clooney, Daniel Craig, Joe Alwyn Green Light Aston Martin’s New Vehicle

Celebrities turned out in full force to Aston Martin’s newest addition to its fleet, Vanquish, a V12 flagship sports car, apparently giving it their green light.

Unveiled by Aston Martin’s Formula 1 drivers Lance Stroll and Fernando Alonso, the sleek vehicle will be limited production, with no more than 1,000 new cars produced per year. It’s the company’s only model to feature an Aston Martin developed 12-cylinder engine.

Set against the Venice International Film Festival, George and Amal Clooney, Benedict Cumberbatch, Daniel Craig and Joe Alwyn were among the starry gearheads who attended.

Before the big reveal, guests sipped Venetian bellinis and enjoyed a three-course meal by Dolada, a restaurant that holds Italy’s longest-standing Michelin star, on the Arsenale di Venezia.

“The arrival of Vanquish is a seminal moment for Aston Martin, completing the newest and strongest portfolio in our segment and reinforcing our ultra-luxury positioning,” said Lawrence Stroll, Aston Martin’s executive chairman.

“This launch toasts the renaissance of our iconic brand and the unique combination of timeless design, craft mastery and engineering innovation which defines our new generation of sports cars. Our flagship product, Vanquish embodies our commitment to both ultra-luxury and high performance, bringing Aston Martin to a new generation of drivers,” he continued.

This is the third car to be christened Vanquish. The original, which launched in 2001, starred in films including 2002 James Bond film “Die Another Day,” ”Lara Croft: Tomb Raider” and “The Italian Job.”
