Brad Pitt’s F1: The Movie is currently streaming on OTT platforms like Prime Video and more. It has already raked in more than $500 million on the global box office – earning itself the title of one of the most popular releases so far in 2025.

The film is also being celebrated as Apple’s most successful theatrical release to date. Directed by Joseph Kosinski, F1: The Movie’s official streaming home is going to be Apple TV+. There is another platform, too.

You can catch on to all the fun on Prime Video. The Brad Pitt-starrer is being released as a paid rental on this platform. This dual release strategy ensures that global audiences don’t miss out on the high-speed drama.

This time, not as a competitor, but to mentor!

Directed by Joseph Kosinski, F1: The Movie centres around Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt), a legendary Formula 1 performer. He had to retire prematurely after an accident in the 1990s. Three decades later, he is asked to get back to the sport.

This time, not as a competitor, but to mentor Joshua Pearce, a rising rookie talent. The plot focuses on comeback, redemption and mentorship – highlighting both glory and the struggles of the racing industry.

More than just a racing film, F1: The Movie explores the human spirit, resilience and the courage to begin again. In addition to Brad Pitt, the film also stars Kerry Condon and Toby Menzies in titular roles, bringing depth and emotional arcs to the story.
