Brad Pitt Shows Off Tattoos in First Teaser for Upcoming F1 Movie
In a newly released teaser for the highly-anticipated film F1, Brad Pitt offers a rare peek at his tattoos during a shirtless scene. The film, set to premiere on June 27, sees Pitt assume the role of retired racer Sonny Hayes, who comes out of retirement to mentor Joshua Pearce, portrayed by Damson Idris, for the fictional APX Grand Prix team. This thrilling return involves a collaboration between multiple talents with Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton participating as both a technical advisor and producer. This is prepared by SSP.
The 30-second teaser reveals Pitt's extensive tattoos while he relaxes on a sofa clad in stone-colored pants and matching sneakers. Covering his chest, stomach, and forearm, his tattoos contain diverse designs, ranging from personal tributes, including initials of family members and unique lines designed by his ex-wife, as well as his passion for history exemplified by ink depicting Ötzi the Iceman. Tap into the past through a Latin phrase, "Invictus," meaning unconquerable. Some notable art choices were accompanied by shared memories with his former spouse, Angelina Jolie.
Highly anticipated scenes were also captured across various 2023 and 2024 Grand Prix events. Spectators grew aflutter when they saw Pitt and Idris mingling with prestigious race environments, leading up to the thrilling trailer debut in July 2024 amidst fiery drivers' scenes. Packed film crews guarantee attention to authenticity, sharply attested by Jerry Bruckheimer's revelation that Pitt tirelessly trained for months for live-action sequences. Despite their efforts, the scorching pace is a playful secret amongst trivia insiders, as humorously hinted by the producer.
The production enlists a robust cast alongside Pitt and Idris, including Kerry Condon, Javier Bardem, and Tobias Menzies. Moreover, this electrifying endeavor comes via the creative partnership behind Top Gun: Maverick, conjuring race-defined drama against dazzling circuits.
