Formula 1 and Hollywood are two of the biggest entertainers in the world. Combine the two, and we get an iconic film, starring none other than Brad Pitt. The sports drama film, which has been teased for long, has finally unveiled its title and release date.
The movie has been unsurprisingly titled F1 and was filmed during Grand Prix events over the last year, with Pitt driving a modified F1 car on the race weekends, albeit not in an official F1 session. If you are excited about the movie, here is all you need to know about F1.

F1 is confirmed to be released internationally on June 25th, 2025, and in North America on June 27th, 2025. The film is being distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, and will also be available in IMAX format. After the theatrical release, the movie will be making its streaming debut on Apple TV+; however, the premiere date has not been announced yet.

F1 Follows a Former One Driver Returning to the Sport
The film follows a former Formula 1 driver, Sonny Hayes, who made a career in the sport in the 1990s but had to retire after a horrible crash, and went on to seek opportunities in other racing disciplines. However, his life takes a turn when the owner of APXGP, a fictional F1 team, invites him back to the circuit, asking him to come out of retirement and partner with rookie teammate Joshua Pearce to mentor him.
