Ruben convinces Sonny to come back to FORMULA 1 for one last shot at saving the team and being the best in the world. He'll drive alongside Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris), the team's hotshot rookie intent on setting his own pace. But as the engines roar, Sonny's past catches up with him and he finds that in FORMULA 1, your teammate is your fiercest competition—and the road to redemption is not something you can travel alone.
F1 ® The Movie also stars Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, Kim Bodnia, and Javier Bardem, and was shot during actual Grand Prix weekends as the team competed against the titans of the sport.

Cadillac names Tommy Hilfiger as first 2026 F1 team partner amid all-American identity
Cadillac has announced its first official partnership ahead of the 2026 Formula 1 season, signalling a commitment to its all-American identity with a deal with Tommy Hilfiger. The Michigan-based manufacturer has named Tommy Hilfiger its apparel partner and lifestyle sponsor in a multi-year agreement with the iconic New York fashion house - a brand with a long-standing history in F1. Advertisement 'Two icons. One vision. A bold new era of American motorsport,' Hilfiger said in a statement on Tuesday. 'We're proud to continue our Formula 1 story alongside TWG Motorsports and Cadillac. 'We share a vision to honour the heritage of F1 while pushing it forward — celebrating where we come from, and reimagining where we can go. 'As the sport's presence around the globe continues to soar, there's never been a better time to dream big, and show the world what an American team can bring to the grid.' Team principal Graeme Lowdon echoed the sentiment that Cadillac is 'an American team representing one of the most iconic American brands of all time'. Advertisement He went on: 'Tommy Hilfiger too is an American icon, and the brand's legacy in Formula 1 is unmatched. As we bring a bold new vision to the paddock, this partnership truly reflects the spirit of what we're building. 'Together, we're not only racing, but driving innovation that will shape the future of both entertainment and engineering.' The partnership will comprise official team kit worn by the drivers, pit crew, paddock staff and management, along with a fanwear collection set to drop globally next March at the beginning of the season. The company logo will also be present on the car, race suits and helmets. Hilfiger, whose lifelong passion for motorsport began near his home at the Watkins Glen circuit in New York, has sponsored F1 teams since the early 1990s. Most recently, he outfitted Mercedes, until Adidas took over at the start of 2025.

Beyond the track, Tommy Hilfiger has played a visible role in growing F1's cultural footprint. The brand sponsors a car in F1 Academy and will release a special collection tied to this summer's 'F1' movie. Now, the brand aims to bring that same ethos to Cadillac's entry into F1. 'From the very beginning, entertainment and sport have been part of our brand's heritage,' Tommy Hilfiger global brand president, Lea Rytz Goldman, said. 'By doubling down in motorsport, we are excited to present a fresh expression of what's possible when fashion evolves at the speed of pop culture. This iconic partnership continues our legacy of breaking boundaries, bringing style to the grid, and driving the future of Formula 1.' Advertisement Cadillac's marketing rollout has leaned heavily into its cultural positioning as an all-American challenger in a historically Europe-centric sport. The partnership with Hilfiger seems to be setting the tone for the team's unique brand identity. 'This collaboration represents the fusion of two bold, innovative brands - where performance meets iconic style,' Dan Towriss, CEO of Cadillac F1, said. 'As we build a team that reflects American ambition on the global F1 stage, this partnership sets the tone for what's ahead.' To read more articles visit our website.

Tom Cruise Says Michael B. Jordan Is 'Enormously Talented' And Shares Respect For Ryan Coogler
Tom Cruise, one of Hollywood's most coveted stars, recently gave high words of praise to Michael B. Jordan and Ryan Coogler following the success of their Sinners film. While in NYC for a premiere of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning on Sunday (May 18), Cruise spoke to People where he reflected on meeting Jordan in London and shared how much admiration he has for him and Coogler. Speaking to Jordan's talent, work ethic, and creative partnership with Coogler, he called the Creed star 'enormously talented' and said he 'respects' the dynamic duo. 'Oh listen, it's wonderful to see him. Really, he's enormously talented, and what he and [Ryan] Coogler do together… he's a great actor,' the 62-year-old said. 'He's dedicated to his brand. I really respect him. Respect Coogler, I love that film. I love the films that they make. It's brilliant, you know, big cinema.' He also told Extra that he would 'love to make a movie' with the Newark, NJ native. Back in April, the Top Gun star snapped a pic outside a theater holding his ticket for Sinners and gave Jordan and Coogler their flowers on Instagram — encouraging moviegoers to not only see the film in theaters but to 'stay through the end credits.' Jordan returned the admiration with a heartfelt post of his own, saying, 'I was too young to see the first Mission: Impossible in theaters, but now I get a chance to watch the final one… in IMAX!!!! Much love @tomcruise.' Speaking of the thrill IMAX theaters gives viewers, fans were granted the wish to watch Sinners with the cinematic experience again for only one week (May 15-21). Warner Bros. brought the film back to IMAX after 'overwhelming popular and critical response.' 'Audiences have spoken and we listened. If ever a film needed to be experienced in this incredible larger-than-life format, it's Sinners,' said Warner Bros. Pictures president of global distribution, Jeff Goldstein, in a statement. 'Ryan has delivered a film that has been embraced by fans who appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into creating a film for this screen-filling format and we wanted to give everyone the opportunity to see it — or see it again — in 70mm IMAX.' As for The Final Reckoning, the presumed last installment in the Mission Impossible franchise hits theaters on May 23, with Ving Rhames, Angela Bassett, Greg Tarzan Davis, Charles Parnell, and many more starring alongside Cruise. Reflecting on the film's history, dating back to 1996 when it first premiered, Cruise told People, 'I did the best I can, and it's representing all the efforts of everyone involved at that particular moment. I really see what it takes to make these movies and what I've learned about storytelling [in] this particular genre.'
