Speed. Legacy. Second chances. The countdown begins...
A brand-new trailer has roared online for the highly anticipated F1: The Movie, starring Brad Pitt in what may become the definitive cinematic experience of Formula 1 racing. The adrenaline-fueled film hits theaters June 30th, 2025, revving up a summer of blockbusters with real-world speed, emotion, and edge-of-your-seat action.
Directed by Joseph Kosinski of Top Gun: Maverick, the film blurs the line between cinema and sport with unprecedented realism, as it was filmed live during actual Formula 1 events using ground-breaking camera rigs and cutting-edge technology. The project boasts an A-list production team including Jerry Bruckheimer, Lewis Hamilton, Brad Pitt, and Dede Gardner, among others.
The Plot: The Legend Returns
Brad Pitt stars as Sonny Hayes, a 1990s F1 prodigy whose once-brilliant career was derailed by a devastating crash. Now a grizzled, globe-trotting racer-for-hire, Hayes is pulled back onto the grid by former teammate Ruben Cervantes played by Javier Bardem, the eccentric owner of a failing Formula 1 team. With everything on the line, Hayes straps in for one last ride—this time alongside rising star Joshua Pearce played by Damson Idris, a bold rookie with a need for speed and a hunger to define his own legacy.
But Formula 1 isn’t just about going fast. In fact, it’s about survival, strategy, and split-second decisions. In a world where your greatest ally can become your fiercest rival, Sonny must confront his past, face his limits, and find redemption at 200 miles per hour.
Real Racing. Real Drama. Real Stars.
F1: The Movie features an all-star cast including Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, and Kim Bodnia, all against the visceral backdrop of Formula 1’s most iconic circuits. With Hamilton’s deep involvement, the film offers an authentic inside look at the sport’s pulse-pounding intensity, rivalries, and culture—something few racing films have ever accomplished.
