Lewis Hamilton is optimistic that a Formula One-inspired movie he is producing featuring Hollywood actor Brad Pitt will shape the sport in future.

He says that this movie will be distinct and it’ll also project a futuristic approach into F1 in decades to come.  Sources close to the British driver say that this is a huge part of his legacy in a sport that has made him so famous across the world.

At 38, Hamilton clearly doesn’t have a lot of time in the circuit – at least not as a driver. Therefore, an F1-centred movie is one of the ways he is cementing his over-a-decade-long Formula 1 career.

IS BRAD PITT MAKING A F1 MOVIE?

Lewis Hamilton movie Brad Pitt is a reality.  The seven-time world champion is producing the movie under the direction of Joseph Kosinski. Pitt is the lead actor in this film and he will also shoot some of the action at the British Grand Prix in July.

Other actors set to appear in this film include Kerry Condon and Damson Idris. Kosinski and producer Jerry Bruckheimer have confirmed that Pitt will sit in a real F1 car driver’s seat. The movie’s production crew, according to Buxton built the smallest moveable 6K camera ever designed to take the viewer into the cockpit. Pitt will be steering a race car from here and it is a first of many.

Going by the official synopsis of the movie, Pitt comes out as a return driver out of retirement to compete against F1 big shots. However, Pitt won’t be competing against other drivers on the circuit, Variety reports. The race vehicle he will be driving will probably be a modified junior F2 or F3 vehicle.

The film will be quite invasive in terms of production, F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali adds. Sports Illustrated reports Domenicali opines that they need to manage expectations when Pitt is behind the wheel.
