From Apple Original Films, “F1” stars Brad Pitt as a former driver who returns to Formula 1, alongside Damson Idris as his teammate at APXGP, a fictional team on the grid. The feature is being shot during actual Grand Prix weekends as the team competes against the titans of the sport, including last weekend's British GP.
The star-studded cast also includes Academy Award nominee Kerry Condon, Academy Award winner Javier Bardem, and Emmy Award winner and Golden Globe Award nominee Tobias Menzies, Emmy Award nominee Sarah Niles, Kim Bodnia and Samson Kayo.
Joseph Kosinski (“Top Gun: Maverick”) directs and produces the feature alongside Jerry Bruckheimer and Chad Oman of Jerry Bruckheimer Films; Pitt, Dede Gardner and Jeremy Kleiner for Plan B Entertainment; and Lewis Hamilton under his Dawn Apollo Films banner.
The film is made in collaboration with Formula 1® and the F1 community, including the 10 F1 teams and their drivers, the FIA, and race promoters. Copper CEO Penni Thow serves as executive producer.
“F1” will be distributed in theatres around the world and in IMAX® by Warner Bros. Pictures. Made in collaboration with Formula 1®, the new film is immersed in the exhilarating and cinematic world of F1, as filming takes place at races on the sport’s calendar.
Release date is June 27, 2025, so we are just over a year away, which is a lifetime in F1, so while there are some cringey moments in the trailer for any die-hard motoring or F1 fan, fingers crossed we've got something quality to watch.
