Brad Pitt Says Tom Cruise Pulled Out Of ‘Ford v Ferrari’ After He Realized He “Would Not Be Driving Much In The Movie”


Brad Pitt revealed why Tom Cruise ultimately pulled out of their version of the 'Ford v Ferrari' movie and if he'd be open to an 'F1' sequel with him

Speaking to the United Arab Emirates-based publication The National News, Pitt reflected on the racing pic that never came to pass, which initially featured F1 and Top Gun: Maverick helmer Joseph Kosinski as director. A box office hit following its release June 27, the Apple Original Films blockbuster is already getting chatter about potential sequel treatment, with Kosinski telling GQ UK that it’s “up for the audience to decide” and “not my decision.” Made in partnership with Formula 1 and its 10 teams, the drama stars Pitt as has-been racer Sonny Hayes, who aims to stage a comeback after his promising career was derailed by a track accident, finding that his biggest competition may be his young, irreverent upstart teammate Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris).
