Joseph Kosinski has been tasked with directing the film, while Ehren Kruger will write the screenplay. The drama will hit theaters on June 25, 2025, and will feature a significant and compelling soundtrack.
Hans Zimmer will be responsible for F1 score
Hans Zimmer has reached an agreement to compose the music for the upcoming major sports movie of 2025, directed by Joseph Kosinski: “F1“. The last time he worked on a racing drama was in “Rush” in 2013.
Despite many considering it an underrated work, some believe it was simply phenomenal. “Hans Zimmer’s involvement in the film only raises expectations“, some commented according to The Tribune.
The collaboration between the composer and Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton, who will produce the cinematic adaptation, has been ongoing since 2019 when they met at the Singapore Grand Prix.
The works of Zimmer, such as Interstellar and Gladiator, are known for their ability to enhance the visual narrative of films with music that excites, elevates, and becomes an integral part of the cinematic experience.
