Brad Pitt is a has-been that never was in the high-octane trailer for Joseph Kosinski’s F1

March 13, 2025 by Matt Rodgers

Apple Original Films and Warner Bros. have let the latest trailer for Joseph Kosinski’s high-octane, action-packed F1 out of the pit-lane. 

Starring Academy Award winner Brad Pitt (Once Upon a Time in Hollwood…) as a has been that never was, who is given one final shot at the big time when asked to mentor an up-and-coming young superstar.

Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, Kosinski, Lewis Hamilton, Pitt, Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner and Chad Oman, F1 has one heck of a cast assembled on the starting grid alongside Pitt, including Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, Kim Bodnia, and Javier Bardem. Check out the trailer and brand new poster below…

“Dubbed “the greatest that never was,” Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt) was FORMULA 1’s most promising phenom of the 1990s until an accident on the track nearly ended his career. Thirty years later, he’s a nomadic racer-for-hire when he’s approached by his former teammate Ruben Cervantes (Javier Bardem), owner of a struggling FORMULA 1 team that is on the verge of collapse. Ruben convinces Sonny to come back to FORMULA 1 for one last shot at saving the team and being the best in the world. He’ll drive alongside Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris), the team’s hotshot rookie intent on setting his own pace. But as the engines roar, Sonny’s past catches up with him and he finds that in FORMULA 1, your teammate is your fiercest competition—and the road to redemption is not something you can travel alone.”

F1 speeds into cinemas around the world this summer.
