The checkered flag has dropped, and the race is on! Formula 1’s (@F1) official X account unleashed an electrifying trailer for F1, the adrenaline-pumped sports drama starring Brad Pitt, on March 13, 2025, at 19:04 UTC—leaving fans screeching with excitement and demanding more.
Featuring Pitt as retired driver Sonny Hayes mentoring the fiery Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris), this cinematic pit stop is set to roar into theaters on June 25, 2025. But can this Hollywood-F1 mashup take the pole position, or is it headed for a crash landing?
Brad Pitt’s F1 Movie Trailer Drops Bombshell
Directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick) and co-produced with Apple Original Films and Warner Bros., F1 promises heart-pounding authenticity, filmed at legendary circuits like Silverstone and Monza during real race weekends, including the 2023 British Grand Prix.
Using modified Formula 2 cars with Formula One aero-packages, the film boasts input from F1 legend Lewis Hamilton and a star-studded cast including Kerry Condon and Javier Bardem. The trailer, splashed with the iconic F1 logo and Pitt’s intense gaze, teases: “Meet APXGP. Sonny Hayes and Joshua Pearce. F1, only in theatres June 2025. #F1 #F1Movie.” But the real question on everyone’s mind: Will this be the ultimate victory lap for moviegoers?
F1’s Official Reaction on X
The Formula 1 X account (@F1) didn’t just share the trailer—it sparked a virtual grand prix of excitement. Posted as Post ID:

Others, including @ThePhantomTom and @ArshiaQaisar, shouted “PEAK” and “Looks great” with @AlexF1BCL adding, “so excited for this one.” The official F1 page’s engagement shows the sport’s full-throttle commitment to this cinematic partnership, amplifying the buzz ahead of the 2025 Australian Grand Prix.
Warner Bros.’ Curious Silence on X
Oddly, Warner Bros. (@WarnerBrosEnt), the film’s theatrical distributor, has yet to post about the trailer on their official X account. This silence stands out, especially with Warner Bros.’ typical social media fanfare for major releases. Industry watchers speculate this could be a strategic move—letting F1’s motorsport fanbase drive initial buzz while saving a bigger push for closer to the June premiere.

However, fans are left refreshing their feeds, wondering if Warner Bros. is holding back for a surprise lap or simply coasting. The lack of reaction has only fueled speculation and chatter online.
What’s Revving Up Next?
Formula1.com recently shared F1 drivers’ ecstatic reactions to the trailer, with Yuki Tsunoda of Racing Bulls calling it a “happy day in the office.” The film’s blend of real races, authentic F1 involvement, and Hollywood star power could make F1 the next big crossover hit, following in Top Gun: Maverick’s tire tracks. But can it handle the pressure of uniting racing purists and casual moviegoers? With three trailers already released (July 2024, Super Bowl LIX 2025, and now March 2025), the hype is building—but will the final film cross the finish line in style?
Buckle up, because F1 is racing toward June 2025, and the internet’s engines are roaring. Will this be a championship win for Pitt and Kosinski, or a spin-out disaster? Stay tuned to xAI for the latest twists on this high-stakes cinematic showdown!
