The Biggest Sports Movie of the Year Is Now Streaming on Apple TV

Acclaimed sports thriller "F1: The Movie" starring Brad Pitt is now available to stream on Apple TV.


Directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer alongside Formula 1 icon Lewis Hamilton, the film casts Pitt as a veteran driver chasing one last shot at glory.

According to Deadline, the film has surged to $629 million at the global box office, making it the highest-grossing Apple Original Film to date, and the biggest sports movie of the year.

After premiering worldwide on June 27, the film's momentum was strong enough to justify a rare second theatrical run in August, coinciding with its home-release debut.

The success has reportedly gone beyond ticket sales. The film's popularity apparently emboldened Apple to bid for the U.S. streaming rights to Formula 1 itself. In October, Apple and Formula 1 announced a five-year partnership that will bring all F1 races exclusively to Apple TV in the United States beginning next year.

And in case you missed it, Apple updated the logo and name for its streaming service in November – what was once "Apple TV+" is now simply "Apple TV."

Having been an F1 fan of well over 40 years the trailers are enough to tell me that its a load of rubbish.
Eh, while the story is definitely not realistic, this hardcore F1 fan enjoyed it for what it was. They did a good job of integrating themselves into the sport - it was fun seeing people I recognize in the paddock the big screen. Of course, YMMV.

Saw it in theaters. OBVIOUSLY it's NOT how anything in F1 actually works, or any racing. Spoiler alert, old guy who hasn't raced in open wheel for years can't come in and just drive suddenly. Also, literally there's an F1 drivers license one must earn to be allowed in a car, so he wouldn't have any points from the Daytona race depicted. Anyways, if you can get past ALL THAT hogwash, it's FUN. But don't think it's real F1. But the in car footage IS AMAZING and worth seeing on a big screen. The racing looked real enough even for me a very avid auto race fan. Only 1 crash appeared to have mildly bad physics. Cars never appeared to be digital replicas.

In my opinion, "Ford vs Ferrari" was a much better racing movie.
