Meet APXGP. Sonny Hayes and Joshua Pearce. Watch the trailer for #F1Movie, in cinemas June 25

 

From Apple Original Films and the filmmakers from Top Gun: Maverick comes the high-octane, action-packed feature film F1, starring Brad Pitt and directed by Joseph Kosinski. The film is produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, Kosinski, seven-time FORMULA 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton, Pitt, Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner and Chad Oman.

 

Dubbed “the greatest that never was,” Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt) was FORMULA 1’s most promising phenom of the 1990s until an accident on the track nearly ended his career. Thirty years later, he’s a nomadic racer-for-hire when he’s approached by his former teammate Ruben Cervantes (Javier Bardem), owner of a struggling FORMULA 1 team that is on the verge of collapse. Ruben convinces Sonny to come back to FORMULA 1 for one last shot at saving the team and being the best in the world. He’ll drive alongside Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris), the team's hotshot rookie intent on setting his own pace. But as the engines roar, Sonny’s past catches up with him and he finds that in FORMULA 1, your teammate is your fiercest competition—and the road to redemption is not something you can travel alone.

 

F1 also stars Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, Kim Bodnia, and Javier Bardem, and has been shot during actual Grand Prix weekends as the team competes against the titans of the sport.

 

Kosinski directs from a screenplay by Ehren Kruger. The film is executive produced by Daniel Lupi. Collaborating with Kosinski behind the scenes are his creative team, including director of photography Claudio Miranda, production designers Mark Tildesley and Ben Munro, editor Stephen Mirrione, costume designer Julian Day, casting director Lucy Bevan and composer Hans Zimmer.

 

Apple Original Films Presents a Monolith Pictures / Jerry Bruckheimer / Plan B Entertainment / Dawn Apollo Films Production, A Film by Joseph Kosinski, F1, distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, in theaters and IMAX nationwide on June 27, 2025 and internationally beginning 25 June 2025.

I'm off to see this in IMAX tonight, I'll let you all know how it went tomorrow

[Dos_Box]

I have to say, it was a very good film, not at the same level as Ford v Ferrari in terms of acting and drama, but certainly a great way to spend an evening.
The race scenes are beautifully shot and if I had one gripe, it's that it didn't need the brief romantic bit, and it could have been half an hour shorter.
I booked tickets at midday yesterday and about 10% of the screen had sold, it was 3/4 full last night. It's supposed to be on a limited release (Apple TV production) but may extend its run, so I'd catch it whilst you can.

Looking forward to seeing it at some point, although Steve McQueen's Le Mans is my benchmark for motorsport movies, closely followed by Rush.

 

Ford V Ferrari was good, but the Le Mans scenes were noticebly filmed elsewhere (Road Atlanta?), so it lacked something essential.

Saw it at the weekend, excellent film!  Such a great story it felt like it was based on a true story, but it isn't - well worth a watch at the cinema.

Speculation about a possible sequel has been circulating for months but had not previously been confirmed, including during Apple TV's press day last week, where the film is streaming.

 

Speaking to the BBC at the annual Academy Awards luncheon in Los Angeles on Tuesday, Bruckheimer said: "We're working on a sequel."

 

The producer declined to give a timeline for the project or confirm casting details, including whether Pitt would reprise his role. But Bruckheimer added that he would "of course" be involved in casting decisions...
