If you’ve been living under a rock, Brad Pitt has been filming an F1 racing movie for the last year, showing up at all the big races and even filming a few scenes before ‘lights out.’
Directed by Joseph Kosinski, written by Ehren Kruger and starring Brad Pitt, Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, Kim Bodnia, Javier Bardem and more — is a film centered around the life of Sonny Hayes (Pitt), a fictional F1 driver from 1990s who retired after a terrible accident, revisiting the racing world to join rookie Joshua “Noah” Pearce (Idris) on the on the Apex Grand Prix team (APXGP).
Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton served as an advisor on the film, raising hopes among racing fans that the movie gets it right.
