Brad Pitt visited the Formula 1 racecar drivers at the Silverstone race track in England on Sunday to film his new movie, Apex.
F1 shared Pitt’s visit on Instagram and posted a series of photos while the Academy Award winner was with them. In the images, Pitt is snapped with his costar Damson Idris, both wearing white fire suits and serious expressions.
The film will follow Pitt’s character, Sonny Hayes, as a veteran racecar driver who returns to the racetracks with his teammate, Joshua Pearce, who Idris will play.
Producers have reportedly recruited British driver Lewis Hamilton for his advice and to help give a more realistic quality to the film.
“It’s to make sure that it’s authentic and that all of you and racing fans see its authenticity and say this is believable,” Hamilton said.
Pitt said that the team has been welcoming and added that being on the racing line is humbling.

“As a civilian, I had no idea what it takes to be a driver,” Pitt said told SkySports. “The aggression and dexterity, and they’re amazing athletes, and I got so much respect for everyone out there in all classes.”
Apex is an Apple Original Fim and is projected to release in theaters between late 2024 and early 2025.
This week, Pitt was accused of “looting” a winery he owns with ex Angelina Jolie.
