Formula One is buzzing after reports surfaced that Apple TV acquired the rights to produce an untitled F1 movie starring Brad Pitt.

The film will reportedly be directed by Joseph Kosinski, director of newly released blockbuster “Top Gun: Maverick,” and co-produced by seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton. But, the Mercedes driver revealed on Friday that he doesn’t “plan to be in it” but couldn’t say much, such as when filming will begin.

“We’re already working on a script, for example. I’m very much involved in the script, which is fun and spending good time with Brad, which is pretty epic, and seeing his progress,” Hamilton said ahead of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
