Lewis Hamilton has been enrolled for a new motor racing-inspired film, which Brad Pitt will play the lead for. The Mercedes driver is beginning to spread his wings away from the sport, and a movie role may be the next logical step in his career.
According to The Sun, Hamilton has been onboarded to be a consultant in a new film being produced by Apple Studios. He will be present throughout the process to ensure that the racing-based movie is largely realistic and nothing is too out of the ordinary.
The 37-year-old has agreed to be on set and teach Pitt all he needs to know about motorsport. It is also believed that Hamilton will also teach the team, including actors, how to use a ‘200mph-plus F1 car’.
The film, which still remains unnamed, will be directed by Joseph Kosinski, who has enjoyed success with Top Gun 2 recently. A source apparently told The Sun: “This is one of those films where everything just seems to be in the right place at the right time.
