Here’s the official synopsis:
Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt), a Formula One driver who raced in the 1990s, has a horrible crash, forcing him to retire from Formula One and start racing in other disciplines. A Formula One team owner and friend contacts Hayes and asks him to come out of retirement to mentor rookie prodigy Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris) on the Apex Grand Prix team (APXGP).
F1 is shaping up to be one of 2025’s biggest blockbusters. With its focus on on-track action and the camera again capturing the fury that occurs right in the moment, this is going to be a film you won’t want to miss out on.
The film also has an incredible cast assembled for it, including the likes Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies and Javier Bardem, who will be joining Brad Pitt and Damson Idris and it has been made with the full commitment and blessing of Formula One, with eight time World Champion Lewis Hamilton serving as a producer on the film. Filming also took place at the 2023 British Grand Prix, and F1 will include appearances by the likes of drivers, including Hamilton, Max Verstappen, Carlos Sainz Jr., George Russell, Charles Leclerc, Pierre Gasly, Sergio Pérez and Fernando Alonso, alongside other current Formula One Racers.
Prepare for the rush of the track when F1 arrives in cinemas next year on June 25, 2025.
