    Talk about over-playing a halo.

    "But first, the movie: Brad Pitt is attached to star (and produce,
    through his Plan B label), with him playing a veteran F1 driver who
    comes out of retirement to rCLmentor a promising rookie.rCY Sir Lewis Hamilton, arguably the greatest F1 driver of all time (and the argument
    is only whether herCOs number one or number two), is also on board as a producer, with Kosinski apparently coming up with the idea for this
    movie after he met Hamilton through Tom Cruise during the making of
    Maverick."

    Hard pass, and on limited distro AppleTV+, no less. Yes, less.

    Because passing on something that hasn't been made just based on a few
    random factoids is completely adult and rational behaviour...

    I was hoping Will Ferrell would make an F1 movie, a sequel or prequel to Talladega Nights with Sascha Baron Cohen.
