Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise surprised fans with a rare red carpet reunion at the F1 European premiere in London on June 16. While Cruise isn’t part of the film, he showed up in support of Pitt, who stars in the high-octane racing drama directed by Top Gun: Maverick’s Joseph Kosinski.
Pitt plays Sonny Hayes, a retired Formula One driver returning to the sport to mentor a rookie. The film was shot during real Grand Prix weekends, including Silverstone and Spa, using actual race footage for added realism.
Cruise, a longtime motorsport enthusiast, praised Pitt’s performance and driving skills, recalling the time they raced go-karts together. “I can’t wait to see what he’s done with it,” Cruise told reporters.
The duo’s reunion sparked a wave of excitement on social media, with fans calling it “Hollywood history.”
F1, which also stars Damson Idris, Javier Bardem, and Kerry Condon, hits theaters on June 27, 2025.
