The Scooter Scoop: F1 Movie Preview

July 9, 2025

If you’re feeling the need for speed this summer, ditch the fighter jets and head to Robinson Film Center for F1: The Movie.

The film is a Jerry Bruckheimer production, so if it feels a little like Top Gun: Maverick, that’s the reason. It’s a summer blockbuster, full of fast-paced action sequences, equally fast dialog, intense cinematography and a killer soundtrack. But it’s no cookie-cutter production.

Brad Pitt plays Sonny Hayes, a veteran race car driver whose F1 career ended in a horrific crash before it really got started. But his old friend Ruben Cervantes (Javier Bardem) talks Hayes out of retirement for a final ride with his struggling team.

Part of Hayes’ role is to mentor a brash rookie Joshua Pearce, played by Damson Idris. The competition between the two reignites a fire in Sonny. That, and his daredevil approach to life, end up solidifying the team in their race to victory lane.

Like I said, F1 is a Bruckheimer film, so you should go into it with some preconceived expectations. And the movie doesn’t disappoint in those areas. But it also has enough twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat, and I’m not just talking about the driving.
