The Lewis Hamilton-directed F1 movie took the motorsport world by storm. The movie posted some significant numbers and global viewers on its release day. Hamilton’s movie became Apple Studios’ highest-grossing film and even Brad Pitt‘s most-watched film. As such, after achieving such great feedback from the fans, the movie’s producer, Jerry Bruckheimer, has given a major update on a potential sequel to the film.

Notably, even before the release of the F1 film, the producers and directors were open to a sequel to the film. Moreover, Lewis Hamilton had talked about working on other films and not relaxing after a single movie release.

Although the exact details of the meetup aren’t revealed, Bruckheimer noted that they talked about some ideas for movies, potentially a sequel to F1: The Movie. Keeping in mind the great numbers that the first film has achieved so far, it wouldn’t be surprising to witness the creation of a second part soon enough.

We have some ideas, I’m in the process of figuring it out but storytelling is something I’m really passionate about. More than ever, we need inspirational stories out there, given the dark times we live in. I love comedy and I’ve got a particular idea for a television show. I’m working on a couple of animation movie ideas, and we’re getting sent so much stuff since the F1 movie happened it’s crazy. But it’s not about doing lots and lots of projects, quality rather than quantity.
