If everything falls into place, audiences could witness a fresh collaboration between Brad Pitt and Lewis Hamilton. Rumors about a follow-up had been circulating ever since the film’s release.
F1 Movie Sequel Confirmed
Producer Jerry Bruckheimer confirmed that work has already begun on the next chapter. Speaking to PEOPLE recently at an event, the veteran filmmaker shared an exciting update about the follow-up to the 2025 blockbuster. “We’re working on the story. It’s really good. We’re talking to Lewis Hamilton. We’re getting it going through him and pitching him the ideas and see what he thinks,” Bruckheimer revealed, hinting at the Formula 1 champion’s continued involvement behind the scenes.
While plot details remain tightly guarded, speculation is mounting over the return of key cast members. Brad Pitt headlined the original film as Sonny Hayes, a former racing prodigy staging a dramatic comeback decades after stepping away from the sport. When asked whether Pitt would reprise his role, Bruckheimer said, “We’ll see. I’m not going to tell you yet.” The secrecy has only fueled excitement among fans eager to see the characters back on the track.
