The expectation he raised at the last British GP was huge. The crowd in the main stand at Silverstone shouted not only the names of Hamilton, Norris, Russell and company.as well (and there were many) of Brad Pitt, who bathed himself in front of highly engaged fans. The North American actor became one of the great protagonists of the previous ceremony at the start of the race because there he had to record with the other drivers and also the actor Damson Idris a scene from the movie about F1 who will both play the drivers of an invented 11th F1 team called which is ‘Apex (APX GP)’ .
Filming began at Silverstone and it looked promising from the start, with large cameras positioned just above the ‘halo’ of a modified F2 car serving to record stunning track footage for the highly anticipated film. However, it was to give the start signal for filming and the closest thing to a ‘safety car’ appeared: the filming of this super production was stopped due to a strike.
In theory, Brad Pitt and company should continue to be part of the paddock in the following races in Hungary and Belgium, but the plans of its creators changed a few days after proceeding.
As with other big movies that hope to make millions of dollars at the box office in theaters around the world when they are released, Filming on the F1 movie starring Brad Pitt had to be stopped after the first weekend of filming.
This super Apple TV production, helmed by the director of the current ‘Top Gun’, Joseph Kosinski, and with Lewis Hamilton as producer, had to stop due to the strike of the actors’ union, the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) for the pay dispute and the controversial use of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Why is there a strike in Hollywood?
SAG-AFTRA, a union that found Brad Pitt and represents more than 100,000 actors, recording artists and other artistsThe said strike was called after failing to reach an agreement with Alliance of Film and Television Producers (AMPTP).
The union says audiences for productions around the world have increased thanks to new delivery services and that this growth has not been reflected in actors’ salaries. Furthermore, he complains that the number of working professionals charging the minimum rate has increased in recent years. This is just one of the complaints about a strike that directly affected the production of Brad Pitt’s F1 film.
“All filming has been cancelled, for now. Brad Pitt has been really happy, but he’s actually a very loyal member of the union”a production source revealed to NBC News.
