During the F1 premiere in Mexico City on June 9, a reporter for Entertainment Tonight referred to Pitt’s May 28 GQ interview — in which he declared that his life currently feels “fairly contained”, “pretty warm” and “secure” — and asked him what makes him feel “so grounded.”
“No matter the mistake, you know, you just learn from [it] and move on,” the actor shared. “It’ll lead to the next success.”
“I think [when] you get to my age, you really see how important it is to surround yourself with the people you love, the people that love you back,” he continued. “Friends, family, and that’s it.”
“From there, we get to go make things,” he added. “So it’s a pretty simple, I think, equation.”
CBR attended a press conference for F1 ahead of its theatrical release, where Kosinski, producer Jeremy Kleiner and stars Pitt, Idris and Kerry Condon discussed the intense training for the film. While the thrills come from the actors actually being in the driver’s seat during 180-miles-per-hour races, the heart of the film comes from the characters’ spirits and emotional journeys. They also revealed the most surprising things they learned about Formula One during the process of filming, and how the film was “nothing like” Pitt ever experienced in his career.
