What F1: The Movie Is About
In F1: The Movie, Brad Pitt stars as Sonny Hayes, a washed-up Formula 1 driver who walked away from racing decades ago after a career-ending crash. When his old teammate Ruben Cervantes (Javier Bardem) asks for help saving his struggling team APXGP, Sonny returns to the track for one final shot at glory.
Paired with hot-headed rookie Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris), Sonny must prove he’s still got what it takes to be “the greatest that never was.” The cast also includes Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, and Kim Bodnia, with seven-time Formula 1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton serving as one of the film’s producers.
