Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time Formula One World Champion, is playing a crucial role behind the scenes for the upcoming Formula One (F1) movie produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and starring Brad Pitt. As a co-producer and consultant, Hamilton is actively involved in the decision-making process, casting, and ensuring that the film is diverse and showcases the future of the sport.
The film is said to be based around a fictional F1 team named Apex Racing, but interspersed with real-life footage from the 10 F1 teams. Pitt is due to play the lead role, with Joseph Kosinski directing, and already has a star-studded cast, including British actor Damson Idris, and Irish actress Kerry Condon as the technical director of Apex Racing.
Hamilton is involved in the recruitment process for the cast and is ensuring the movie represents the future of the sport to be more accessible and inclusive. He has also expressed an interest in a possible cameo role but prefers to remain in the background.
During the cancelled Emilia Romagna Grand Prix weekend, Hamilton met with the team behind the movie and gave his advice on how the sport should develop in the future. The movie is said to film scenes at various races throughout the second half of the season, and Hamilton hopes to take the movie to the prestigious Cannes Film Festival after its release.
The untitled Apple Formula One movie, whose details were revealed by television presenter Ted Kravitz, is rumoured to feature Pitt as a retired driver who returns to the sport to mentor a younger driver, played by Idris. The teams will also feature in the film as themselves, with Apex Racing, the team led by Pitt’s character, added as an additional entry.
Hamilton’s involvement in the movie is emblematic of his efforts to expand the visibility and diversity of the sport. Hamilton, who has faced discrimination because of his race and ethnicity in the past, has been a vocal advocate of greater diversity and inclusiveness in F1. Last year, he launched the Hamilton Commission, which aims to change the face of motorsport and make it more accessible to under-represented groups.
Hamilton is arguably one of the most prominent figures in the sport and has used his platform to effect change outside of racing as well. He has been an advocate of climate change and has urged his sport to become more sustainable. He has used his image to promote gender equality, racial justice, and mental health awareness. His response to online trolls has been measured and positive, maintaining his commitment to pursuing a constructive dialogue on social media.
In conclusion, Hamilton’s involvement in the upcoming F1-inspired movie as a co-producer and consultant is indicative of his desire to promote inclusiveness and diversity within the sport. He continues to use his influence to effect positive change, both on and off the track.
