Love and adrenaline collide in Apple’s upcoming Formula 1 drama F1, as Kerry Condon hints at a romantic storyline with Brad Pitt — and fans are already revving up.
F1: Not Just About Speed
Oscar-nominee Kerry Condon stars as Kate, a fierce and brilliant technical director overseeing a cutting-edge Formula 1 car — and her chemistry with Brad Pitt’s character, retired racer Sonny Hayes, may just add sparks to the asphalt.
While appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Condon confirmed what fans had been speculating:
“We can say there’s a bit of romance in the movie.”
A 8:30 A.M. Romance Scene?
In true Condon style, the actress shared a hilarious behind-the-scenes moment:
“They scheduled it for half eight on a Thursday morning,” she said with a laugh. “So I had a vodka orange juice for breakfast.”
Set during what’s supposed to be a wild Vegas night out, the scene gave Condon and Pitt an unexpectedly early call time — but no shortage of chemistry.
