Tim Cook Confirms 'F1' Sequel Talks at Apple

Talks follow a $600 million-plus box office run, with no official greenlight.

Overview

  • Cook told Variety a follow-up is "definitely" being discussed after the film’s strong summer performance.
  • Apple has not announced a greenlight, production plan, plot details, or a timeline for a second installment.
  • The film topped $600 million worldwide, marking Apple’s biggest movie to date and, per ESPN, the highest-grossing sports film.
  • Director Joseph Kosinski has suggested a potential crossover involving Cole Trickle, which remains an idea rather than a plan.
  • Brad Pitt has said he wants to drive again but is unsure how his character would fit, and industry reports expect a theatrical-first release followed by Apple TV+ if the sequel proceeds.
