Last year at the Belgian GP, several sequences of the feature film with the working title ‘Apex’ were filmed at the fabled Spa-Francorchamps circuit.
However, due to the Hollywood writer’s strike at the time, Pitt himself was not able to work. But the Belgian broadcaster RTBF reports that the American will be on the track at Spa on the weekend of July 26-28.
Now the strike is in the past, the 60-year-old actor is expected to shoot the missing scenes, the report added.

Trailer for Joseph Kosinski/Brad Pitt’s Formula One Movie Being Released on Sunday
Joseph Kosinski’s F1 movie, tentatively titled “Apex,” is continuing to film at Formula One events. Fresh off “Top Gun: Maverick,” Kosinski’s film stars Brad Pitt, and is being produced by Apple.
Daniel Richtman is reporting that a trailer for the film will be released on Sunday. I’m guessing it’ll happen during the British Grand Prix. I didn’t expect a trailer this early, especially since the film is still in the thick of production, but it should be interesting to see how this one looks.

The still-untitled movie, rumored to be called “Apex,” will hit theaters on June 27, 2025. The deal with Warner Bros will guarantee a theatrical bow of at least 30 days, if not longer.
