F1: The Movie Tops Box Office for Pitt and Apple but Has Yet to Profit

Earning $545.6 million against a near $750 million break-even threshold, the film is still awaiting a streaming debut on Apple TV+.

Overview

  • Since its June 25 release, the film has grossed $545.6 million worldwide, making it Brad Pitt’s most successful lead role to date.
  • It surpassed Pitt’s previous box-office record held by 2013’s World War Z, which earned about $540 million globally.
  • With production costs estimated near $300 million, the movie needs roughly $750 million to break even through theatrical earnings.
  • As Apple Studios’ highest-grossing project, the title underscores the studio’s growing theatrical ambitions even without a confirmed Apple TV+ release date.
  • Directed by Joseph Kosinski and with Lewis Hamilton as executive producer, the production captured real Grand Prix footage to deliver authentic Formula 1 racing scenes.
