Overview

• F1 will open in US theaters on June 27 before arriving on Apple TV+ at a later date.
• Directed by Joseph Kosinski and executive produced by Lewis Hamilton, the film stars Brad Pitt as former driver Sonny Hayes mentoring a rising talent played by Damson Idris.
• Production crews filmed at real Grand Prix venues, with Pitt performing high-speed stunts and all ten Formula One teams collaborating on race sequences.
• The main trailer earned acclaim from top F1 competitors for its realism but drew fan criticism over its melodramatic subplots and an age-defying comeback storyline.
• Pitt says making F1 reignited his passion for filmmaking as the movie seeks to attract new audiences beyond Netflix’s Drive to Survive fanbase.
