Pitt also noted that he’d love to work on a follow-up to Cruise’s 1990 racing film ‘Days of Thunder.’ Before F1: The Movie raced into theaters last week, Brad Pitt was originally set to star in another racing film alongside none other than Tom Cruise .

Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise spent years trying to make their version of "Ford v Ferrari" with "F1" director Joseph Kosinski.

Javier Bardem, who plays Ruben Cervantes, points out Idris and Pitt likely felt more pressure filming during the live races in front of hundreds of thousands of people. But he says the crew’s “work” wasn’t lost on him.
