The first trailer for the F1 film has finally been released by Warner Bros. Pictures and Apple Studios. Although the film won't be released in theaters until June 2025, audiences can now get a sneak peek at what they'll see. The trailer features impressive racing sequences, accompanied by Queen's We Will Rock You. 

Brad Pitt also makes a dominant appearance in the trailer, playing Sonny Hayes, a fictional former Formula 1 racer. In the film F1 , Sonny Hayes is a Formula 1 driver who retires after a career-ending accident. Years later, he is called back to the racing scene as a mentor to Joshua Pearce, played by Damon Idris.

Kerry Condon, Javier Bardem, Tobias Menzies, Sarah Niles, Kim Bodnia, and Samson Kayo also star in the film F1 . The film uses IMAX technology and is directed by Joseph Kosinski, who previously directed the film Top Gun: Maverick .

Joseph is said to be skilled at creating intense visual experiences, such as in Maverick which successfully made the audience feel like they were in the cockpit of an F/A-18E fighter jet. From the released trailer, it can be seen that Kosinski is trying to present a similar experience for Formula 1 racing cars. 

Meanwhile, the music for this film will be done by Hans Zimmer. At this time, further details about the F1 movie are scarce. The trailer above only gives a glimpse into the dynamics of the Apex Grand Prix team and their efforts to improve their competitiveness.

In the trailer, Brad Pitt mentions that the Apex GP team has lost to several teams on the straights, and he hopes that their car can be more competitive in conquering the corners. With the film still about a year away from release, we likely won’t get much more information until closer to release. 

Hopefully, the film will captivate Formula 1 fans and also appeal to viewers who aren’t as familiar with the sport. As previously reported, the film's license was acquired by Apple in a deal that guarantees the film will get a theatrical release through Warner Bros. The deal ensures the film will have a theatrical run for at least 30 days, if not longer.
