Directed by Joseph Kosinski, Pitt will play a veteran driver who mentors a rising star whilst coming out of his retirement.
“He [Hamilton] is a friend of mine and we have a really good time together. I’m really looking forward to it. Brad was obviously the cheapest of the actors available,” 60-year-old Pitt said.
Hamilton’s production company, Dawn Apollo Films, will be making the film, with the 38-year-old British race car driver helping out with casting. The movie is schedule for release next year.
According to a report by The Sun, a source said: “Watching Brad Pitt leading the field in the British Grand Prix will be an incredible and surreal moment for TV viewers and fans at Silverstone this July.”
“It’s a cool project . . . (and) spending good time with Brad is pretty epic,” Hamilton said earlier.
