Brad Pitt’s F1 Movie Adds New Cast, Releases Trailer

'F1: The Movie,' starring Brad Pitt as Sonny Hayes and directed by Joseph Kosinski, is set for a June 27, 2025 release, with its final trailer now available. Pitt's character, a former F1 driver, returns to mentor rookie Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris) and help revive a struggling team, joined by cast members Javier Bardem, Kerry Condon, and Tobias Menzies. The film is co-produced by F1 champion Lewis Hamilton, who also appears alongside other real F1 drivers, and features extensive on-location filming at 2024 Grand Prix events. Actors trained with real drivers and drove actual F1 cars to enhance authenticity. The movie incorporates significant product placement to reflect Formula 1's commercial reality, and its score is composed by Hans Zimmer. Positioned as a high-octane, redemption-driven sports drama, the film aims to appeal to both F1 fans and general audiences.
