Keanu Reeves, the Hollywood sensation, is set to take the world by storm once again, but this time not on the big screen, but in the thrilling realm of Formula 1. The renowned actor will be the face of an upcoming documentary that delves into Cadillac’s ambitious journey to join the prestigious Formula 1 grid in 2026.
After the incredible success of the Emmy-award-winning documentary “Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story,” Keanu Reeves is stepping into the spotlight to narrate the captivating tale of the new American F1 team as they gear up for their debut in the upcoming F1 season.
Reeves will be working closely with the team boss, Graeme Lowdon, as they meticulously oversee the construction of the team from the ground up. With the headquarters being established in Fishers, Indianapolis, and operations currently running out of six Silverstone-based warehouses, Cadillac’s F1 venture is nothing short of a monumental undertaking.
As the owner of TWG Motorsports and in partnership with General Motors, Cadillac has opened its doors wide to provide unprecedented access for this documentary. Reeves, in collaboration with North One production team and his own KR+SH production company, will serve as the host and executive producer of the series.
Expressing his enthusiasm for the project, Reeves stated, “Our goal with the docuseries is to bring audiences into the heart of this journey and showcase what it takes to participate in one of the most exclusive sports arenas in the world.”
The documentary will offer viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges and triumphs of building an F1 team from scratch, all while aiming to establish a uniquely American presence in a championship traditionally dominated by European powerhouses.
Dan Towriss, CEO of TWG Motorsports and the Cadillac Formula 1 Team, emphasized the team’s bold ambition and relentless drive, highlighting the opportunity to introduce a new generation of fans to the exhilarating world of Formula 1.
Mark Reuss, GM president, echoed these sentiments, expressing the thrill of embarking on the mission to create an American Formula 1 team and the excitement of having Keanu Reeves document their journey to the pinnacle of the FIA Formula One World Championship.
With Keanu Reeves at the helm of this groundbreaking documentary, audiences can expect a riveting exploration of Cadillac’s foray into the high-stakes world of Formula 1, promising an adrenaline-fueled ride from start to finish.
