Brad Pitt is set to participate in the British Grand Prix by driving in the first parade lap at Silverstone in July. The 59-year-old actor has been granted special permission to take part alongside Sir Lewis Hamilton and other racers for the purpose of filming scenes for his upcoming, as-yet-untitled movie. In the film, Pitt portrays a retired veteran driver who returns to the sport to mentor a young up-and-coming driver. According to a source cited in The Sun newspaper, seeing Brad Pitt leading the pack at the British Grand Prix will be a surreal and incredible moment for both TV viewers and fans in attendance. The film is being produced by Hamilton's production company, Dawn Apollo Films, with the driver also contributing to the casting process. Hamilton has described the project as "cool" and expressed his excitement at spending time with Pitt. The movie, directed by Joseph Kosinski, is slated for release next year.
The upcoming film, which chronicles the rivalry between Ford and Ferrari at Le Mans, is scheduled for release next year. This project marks the second major deal between Brad Pitt and Apple Original Films. Their previous collaboration, "Wolves," is directed by Jon Watts, known for his work on "Spider-Man," and features Pitt and George Clooney as two lone wolf "fixers" tasked with the same job. Pitt and Clooney have previously acted together in films like "Burn After Reading" and the "Ocean's" franchise. Clooney jokingly referred to Pitt as the "cheapest" actor available and expressed his excitement to work with his friend again. Pitt echoed the sentiment, saying, "He's a friend of mine and we have a really good time together. I'm really looking forward to it."
