Brad Pitt returns to the big screen with "F1," his first theatrical release in three years since "Babylon." The sports drama centers on a forced-to-retire Formula One driver who is persuaded to come back and mentor a promising rookie, portrayed by Damson Idris.

The film's premiere in the United States and Canada is strategically scheduled to coincide with the 2025 Austrian Grand Prix, aligning the movie's release with a major event in the Formula One calendar.

This timing not only capitalizes on the heightened interest in Formula One racing during the Grand Prix but also highlights the film's authentic connection to the sport.

"F1" marks a significant moment in Pitt's career, returning to a leading role after a notable hiatus, and promises to blend high-octane racing action with a compelling mentorship story.

"Brad Pitt's proper theatrical release in three years after Babylon, F1 deals with a forced-to-retire Formula One driver who is coaxed to return to the track and mentor a rookie prodigy, played by Damson Idris. The premiere of this upcoming sports drama in the United States and Canada is timed around the 2025 Austrian Grand Prix."
