Keanu Reeves to host new docuseries on Cadillac's entry into F1

Hollywood icon and lifelong motorsport enthusiast Keanu Reeves is set to front a new docuseries chronicling the creation and rise of the Cadillac Formula Team, that will join the grid in 2026.

The series, produced in collaboration with North One and Reeves’ KR+SH production company, follows the remarkable story of building a competitive F1 team from the ground up, offering unprecedented access to the process.

Following the success of the Emmy-winning feature ‘Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story’, Reeves is diving back into the world of motorsport storytelling.

The yet-to-be-titled documentary will focus on Cadillac’s ambitious venture, led by TWG Motorsports and General Motors, as they establish a distinctly American presence in a sport historically dominated by European teams.

Filming is underway, capturing the team’s efforts as they operate out of temporary facilities in six Silverstone-based warehouses while their permanent headquarters in Fishers, Indianapolis, is being constructed.

“I'm very honoured and excited to be a part of telling the remarkable Cadillac Formula 1 Team story and its incredible journey into the world of F1 racing,” said the star of the Matrix and John Wick franchises.

“Our goal with the docuseries is to bring audiences into the heart of this journey and showcase what it takes to participate in one of the most exclusive sports arenas in the world.”

A Story of Bold Ambition and Relentless Drive

Dan Towriss, CEO of TWG Motorsports and the Cadillac F1 Team, emphasized the magnitude of the effort, and the storytelling opportunity it presents.

“This is a story of bold ambition and relentless drive,” Towriss said.

“We’re honoured to work with Keanu, whose passion and knowledge of racing runs deep, and proud to partner with GM on this incredible story.

“We have an opportunity to welcome a new generation of fans to Formula 1 and Keanu’s creativity is the perfect spark to ignite that journey.”

The docuseries is being positioned as both a celebration of American innovation and a case study in motorsport evolution at a time when F1’s popularity is booming in the United States thanks to blockbuster races in Miami, Austin, and Las Vegas.

Mark Reuss, President of General Motors, underscored the significance of the project for the automotive giant.

“General Motors and TWG Motorsports joined forces on a bold mission – to build a uniquely American Formula 1 team,” Reuss said.

“It’s a thrill to have Keanu Reeves document the Cadillac Formula 1 Team’s journey to our first season in the FIA Formula One World Championship.”

The docuseries is expected to premiere ahead of Cadillac’s 2026 debut, coinciding with Formula 1’s new regulations cycle.

For Reeves, it’s another deep dive into a world he reveres. For fans, it promises a rare and intimate look at what it takes to turn a motorsport dream into racing reality.
