Lewis Hamilton has provided an update on his upcoming F1 movie starring Brad Pitt following the conclusion of the Hollywood strikes.
Filming for the Apple Studios production, co-produced by Hamilton, has been affected by a five-month long strike by the Writers Guild of America. Brad Pitt and Damson Idris were spotted filming a scene at the F1 grid during the British Grand Prix, while footage of F2-spec cars being driven around Silverstone was also captured. Additional filming took place at the Hungarian and Italian Grands Prix, but Pitt and Idris were not present. Originally, there were plans to film scenes at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, but Hamilton confirmed that this will no longer happen. The movie is still on schedule for its planned release in 2025 and will include footage from the 2023 F1 season, captured in 2024. Brad Pitt and Damson Idris will drive actual cars on track for racing sequences in 2024. Hamilton will dedicate some of his free time over the winter to the project, reviewing the script with Joe and Jerry.
