The first trailer for Brad Pitt‘s Formula 1 movie has arrived. The F1 teaser features a high-speed montage of racing set to Queen’s “We Will Rock You.”
“Red Bull, Ferrari, Mercedes, Aston and now McLaren all have a speed on the straights. Our shot is battling it in the turns,” Pitt says in the trailer. “We need to build our car for combat.”
When a woman asks him, “How am I supposed to make that safe?” He responds, “Who said anything about safe?”
Formula 1 released the trailer hours before the British Grand Prix. In the film, Pitt stars as a former driver who returns to Formula 1 alongside Damson Idris’s racer as his teammate at APXGP, a fictional team on the grid. The film was made in collaboration with ten Formula 1 teams, with scenes shot during real F1 races, as seen in the high-octane teaser.
Kerry Condon, Javier Bardem, Tobias Menzies, Sarah Niles, Kim Bodnia and Samson Kayo also star.
The movie will hit theaters in North America on June 27, 2025, and re-teams the filmmakers behind Top Gun: Maverick, including director Joseph Kosinski and producer Jerry Bruckheimer. Internationally, the movie will begin rolling out on June 25.
Kosinski produces the feature alongside Bruckheimer and Chad Oman of Jerry Bruckheimer Films; and Pitt, Dede Gardner and Jeremy Kleiner for Plan B Entertainment, and Lewis Hamilton under his Dawn Apollo Films banner.
As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, the movie landed at Apple under a deal that assured the film would receive a substantial theatrical release via Warner Bros., with a window of at least 30 days, if not longer.
