Brad Pitt’s F1 film surges into Oscars race with five nominations: a cinematic triumph!

Brad Pitt’s F1 Film Races Towards Oscar Glory with Five Nominations in Sight

In a thrilling twist for cinema lovers and motorsport enthusiasts alike, Brad Pitt’s much-anticipated Formula 1 film has stormed into the Academy Awards race, landing on five prestigious Oscar shortlists. This explosive news was unveiled in the latest announcements from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, where the Apple TV feature has captured nominations in key categories including Cinematography, Music (Original Score), Music (Original Song), Sound, and Visual Effects.

Among the captivating entries, the film’s pulse-pounding track “Drive,” performed by chart-topping British sensation Ed Sheeran, is vying for a spot among the 15 contenders for Best Original Song. Meanwhile, the film’s impressive physical effects are also generating buzz, placing it firmly in the spotlight of the Visual Effects category.

But that’s not all! The competition is fierce as F1 stands shoulder to shoulder with another Apple creation, The Lost Bus, also making waves in the Visual Effects category. This year, the Academy has rolled out shortlists across 12 categories, and F1 is proudly listed among 16 films contending for Cinematography, 20 for Original Score, and 10 in both Sound and Visual Effects.

In a dramatic showdown, the film finds itself in the Sound category alongside cinematic titans such as Avatar: Fire and Ash, the classic Frankenstein, and the beloved musical Wicked: For Good. The Visual Effects race is equally intense, with F1 competing against nine other heavyweights, including the highly anticipated Tron: Ares and Jurassic World Rebirth.

Despite the fact that being shortlisted is not a guarantee for a nomination, this recognition underscores the monumental success of the film, which has already raked in over a staggering $630 million worldwide. The stakes are high as the countdown begins; nominations voting kicks off on January 12, 2024, and wraps up on January 16. The final nominees will be announced on January 22, leading to the grand ceremony scheduled for March 15 at the iconic Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.

Directed by the visionary Joseph Kosinski, F1 is poised to become one of the rare motorsport-centric films to grace the Academy Awards stage. Historical precedents like John Frankenheimer’s Grand Prix (1966), which snagged three awards in sound, film editing, and sound effects, and the recent acclaim for James Mangold’s Ford v Ferrari—nominated for Best Picture and clinching Best Film Editing and Best Sound Editing—add to the anticipation surrounding F1.

Should this film convert its shortlist status into actual nominations, it would not only be a monumental triumph for the film itself but also a significant confidence booster for its production team, which boasts the legendary Lewis Hamilton as an executive producer alongside renowned producer Jerry Bruckheimer.

As the excitement builds, fans and industry insiders alike are left eagerly speculating: will F1 cross the finish line into Oscar history? Stay tuned as this high-octane race unfolds!
