Brad Pitt was filming his (stupid) Formula 1 movie for more than 18 months, no joke. You could say that the 2023 writers strike and actors strike affected the production, but you would be wrong the production kept working in Europe during the strikes, and no one said sh-t about it. I think the F1 movie finally wrapped last December, and it?s scheduled to come out in June. It was produced by Apple and it will eventually come out on AppleTV, but it?s supposed to get a wide theatrical release. Where have we heard that before? Oh right, Wolfs was also produced by Apple and also supposed to get a wide theatrical release last summer, but then Apple realized they had a big, stinking turd on their hands and they shuffled it off to streaming quickly after a one-week limited theatrical release. I kind of wonder if the same thing will happen with this F1 movie, or if Apple is in too deep on this one. Reportedly, the F1 movie cost over $300 million to make. Wonder if Variety will make a big stink about it, or if they only reserve that kind of hysterical reporting for Black directors.
I bring all of this up because I?m tired of Hollywood investing this kind of money or any kind of money in mediocre white men, if not terrible white men. Since 2016, Pitt has only made two films (I think?) which have made money or broke even. His track record sucks and his violent personal history weighs down productions and promotional tours. But Pitt has just been cast in yet another movie:
Brad Pitt and Conclave director Edward Berger will team on A24 feature The Riders. The Riders is based on Tim Winton?s novel of the same name, which was shortlisted for the Booker Prize in 1995 and follows a man who travels around Europe with his daughter looking for their wife and mother who has gone missing. David Kajganich is adapting for the screen.
Ridley Scott is producing via his Scott Free banner with Michael Pruss. Kajganich will also produce alongside Berger?s nine hours banner and Pitt, Jeremy Kleiner and Dede Gardner for Plan B Entertainment. Production will start in early 2026, shooting in multiple locations across Europe.
Berger, Kajganich and Scott Free previously worked with on AMC series The Terror. Pitt was last seen starring opposite George Clooney in the action comedy Wolfs and will next be seen in Formula One movie F1, both out via Apple.

I haven?t read the book, but I read some summaries of the book a man?s wife goes missing and he and their daughter go hunting around Europe to figure out what happened, when it becomes increasingly clear that the wife simply didn?t want to be married to this guy anymore. You also never hear the wife?s side of things, and the guy might be an unreliable narrator. Like? enough. Pitt shouldn?t have been cast.

It?s been just over one week since Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus shocked us all by revealing that they?re dating. It still bewilders me and always will. Elizabeth is one of the most beautiful women in the world and Billy Ray has morphed into a Dollar Store Dave Grohl in a MAGA hat. Anyway, the Instagram force is still strong with these new lovebirds. They spent this past weekend at BRC?s home in Tennessee and posted several photos of their time together. Apparently, they went ATVing and took some good old fashion country glamour shots.
Billy Ray Cyrus and Elizabeth Hurley are sharing a look at their cozy weekend.
On Sunday, April 27, the 59-year-old actress posted several photos on her Instagram account, showing the newly public couple enjoying some time together in Tennessee, hanging out on a ranch and driving around in an ATV.
Tennessee weekend , Hurley captioned the photos, the first of which showed the Strictly Confidential star wearing jeans and a white lace shirt as 63-year-old Billy Ray ? sporting a purple plaid shirt and jeans ? cuddled up behind her.
Another photo captured the couple sitting in the ATV with a black-and-white dog next to them.
Billy Ray and Hurley debuted their romance on Instagram on Easter Sunday, April 20, with a joint post featuring a photo of the Achy Breaky Heart singer wearing bunny ears as he kissed Hurley on the cheek. Two days later, Hurley posted a video of the pair driving into the sunset in an open-window vehicle.
Earlier this week, a source spoke to PEOPLE about their budding relationship and revealed that Hurley has been visiting Billy Ray in Tennessee somewhat regularly. The Austin Powers actress spent several days visiting him in Tennessee, the Billy Ray source said of their Easter meetup, adding that Hurley was still visiting the musician by midweek.
Liz is glam, but fits in perfectly in Tennessee, too, the insider said. She spent several days visiting Billy Ray. He loves having her around. She loves his music. And he loves the attention she gives him.
The source added: They are very different, but give off a great vibe together. She?s great for him. He?s been incredibly cheerful.
The same Billy Ray source previously told PEOPLE that the new couple has known each other for years since meeting on the set of the 2022 holiday film Christmas in Paradise.
Liz is great and visited him for Easter. They?ve been seeing each other romantically for a little bit, the source said. And how lucky is he? Liz is lovely. She?s very warm, positive and the best to be around.
The source added that the pair enjoyed working together on the movie. They had a great time shooting that movie together ? it was beautiful and relaxed, and it really stuck with him, they said.

If Liz is in her Cowboy Era, then, as SNL?s Stefan would say, these pictures have everything. They have plaid shirts, denim jeans, and long, flowing hair. There?s a dog in an ATV! The only thing missing is Liz?s straw cowboy hat from the Easter pictures. While the Tennessee pictures have been entertaining and all, what I?m really dying to see are pictures of Billy Ray integrating himself into Elizabeth?s world in London. I mean, can you imagine present day Billy Ray Cyrus hanging out with Sir Elton John, frolicking in the Maldives, or partying in Mumbai? Those pictures would be priceless. They say opposites attract, but it only works long term if both partners are willing to enter the other one?s world. Omg, I think I just figured it out. Liz isn?t in a Cowboy Era, she?s in her Hallmark Christmas Movie Era, cosplaying the city girl who falls in love with the country boy.
