Wholeheartedly Backed by Lewis Hamilton, Brad Pitt Pulls the Plug on F1 Movie & Reveals the Duration of Hiatus

Brad Pitt backed Lewis Hamilton when the 7X Champion suggested that he would like to portray the new F1-themed movie to be as close and as realistic as real-life F1. Now, Lewis Hamilton is backing Brad Pitt who is temporarily pulling the plug on this F1 movie as the Hollywood star reveals the duration of the suspension. While it is questionable for Hamilton to back Brad Pitt as the delay will only increase the costs, the Briton did so wholeheartedly. Let’s see how long the postponement is going to be.

Lewis Hamilton and Brad Pitt’s new F1-themed movie shoots have been going on in full flow in recent times. Brad Pitt was spotted at the British GP to shoot for the movie. Even during the Hungarian GP weekend, the movie’s crew was in the race to shoot the scenes. However, Brad Pitt has been on the Actor’s Strike to show his support toward fellow actors and their demands. 

Amid all this Lewis Hamilton showed his support for the actors’ strike and said “I stand with the actors. I know what they’re fighting for and I hope they come to a resolution soon”. Now Brad Pitt has come and made statements about the postponement of production plans for the movie as he shows his support for the actor’s strike. The shoots will be pushed by two months.

According to thesun.co.uk, Brad Pitt said, “Brad agreed that they would finish shoots booked in but has postponed planned production over the next two months. The cast and crew of Apex have been filming in Budapest but Brad has called for the future dates to be put back, in solidarity with everyone striking.”

As Brad Pitt suggested, the crew was filming in Budapest as videos of the APXGP cars going around the track were seen. Lewis Hamilton understands the reason behind the actors’ strike as he supports the actions. Let’s see what other actors are supporting the Strike.

Brad Pitt and other actors were spotted at the SAG-AFTRA strike.

The SAG-AFTRA strike like many strikes is about compensation. Just after the Pension Reform Strike in France, the strike against studios to increase wages was started in the USA. Sources suggest that about 65000 Hollywood actors are on strike. As the wages have plummeted because of the streaming platforms as well as COVID, actors ask for a raise. This combined with the inflation over the previous years, has made things increasingly difficult for actors.

Brad Pitt was spotted at the Strike as he postponed the shooting of his F1-themed film. Olivia Wilde, who was featured in Rush, an F1 movie based on Niki Lauda and James Hunt’s rivalry, was also seen protesting. Joey King, Rosario Dawson, Jason Sudeikis, and Allison Janney are some others who were spotted with the protestors.

What do you think? Is Brad Pitt’s decision the right one? To postpone the shooting of the movie?
