‘Motorcycle Mary’ will be debuting at the film festival, directed by Haley Watson. The short film has several high-profile producers, with two-time Oscar winner Ben Proudfoot being one of them. Mercedes driver and 7X F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton is also one of the film’s producers alongside Rachel Greenwald.
In 2022, Hamilton launched his production company called ‘Dawn Apollo Films,’ set up in collaboration with his ex-manager, Penni Thow. Immediately after formation, the production house had two projects on the slate in partnership with Apple TV+. One of them is a documentary that encapsulates Hamilton’s journey in F1.
Meanwhile, the second project is an unnamed movie starring Brad Pitt. The aforementioned movie follows a fictional storyline where a retired F1 driver, Sonny Hayes, returns to racing to help out a struggling F1 team as its second driver.
