Red Carpet run: F1 stars dazzle at NYC movie premiere

On a dazzling Monday evening in the heart of New York City, Times Square’s iconic red carpet came alive with a fusion of high-octane glamour and cinematic excitement for the official premiere of F1 The Movie.

Fresh from a private screening last month in Monaco that left drivers buzzing with praise, the F1 grid jetted from Montreal to the Big Apple to celebrate the sport’s and Apple Film’s adrenaline-charged blockbuster.

Formula 1’s biggest stars – all suited, booted, and Hollywood ready – mingled with movie heavyweights and A-list celebrities under the neon glow.

Starring Brad Pitt as Sonny Hayes, a seasoned driver staging a thrilling comeback alongside rookie Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris) for the fictional APXGP team, the film – directed by Joseph Kosinski, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, Pitt, and F1 legend Lewis Hamilton – promises to ignite screens worldwide.

Ahead of the film’s global release on June 25 and in North America on June 27, dive into the gallery below for the night’s most electrifying red carpet moments!
