Brad Pitt's latest venture into the cinematic world has taken the box office by storm. His new film, centered on the high-speed world of Formula 1 racing, has set a new record for the biggest opening weekend on Apple TV+ with a domestic gross exceeding $40 million. This achievement not only highlights Pitt's enduring appeal as an actor but also marks a significant milestone for streaming services competing with traditional theatrical releases.
"F1: The Movie," directed by Joseph Kosinski and starring Brad Pitt, roars onto the big screen with the ambition to capture the heart-pounding essence of Formula One racing. Released on June 27, 2025, this sports drama delivers a visually stunning and emotionally engaging experience, though it occasionally leans too heavily on well-worn tropes. Backed by the expertise of producer Lewis Hamilton and a talented cast, including Damson Idris, Javier Bardem, and Kerry Condon, the film is a love letter to F1 fans and a rousing introduction for newcomers.
